Acute COVID-19 severity markers predict post-COVID new-onset psychiatric disorders: A 2-year cohort study of 34,489 patients

Acute COVID-19 severity markers predict post-COVID new-onset psychiatric disorders: A 2-year cohort study of 34,489 patients

New-onset psychiatric disorders are frequent after COVID-19. We aim to determine whether acute COVID-19 severity markers can predict post-COVID new-onset psychiatric disorders. We conducted an electronic health records (EHR) cohort study of patients hospitalized for COVID-19 and without any known history of psychiatric disorders. Patients were included between January 2020 and September 2022 in one … Read more

PubMed: A Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial Evaluating the Efficacy of Subcutaneous Hyperimmune Immunoglobulin Against COVID-19 in Asymptomatic Individuals with SARS-CoV-2 Infection for Disease Prevention.

Background: Anti-COVID-19 hyperimmune immunoglobulin (hIG) can provide standardized and controlled antibody content. Data from controlled clinical trials using hIG for the prevention or treatment of COVID-19 outpatients have not been reported. We assessed the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous anti-COVID-19 hyperimmune immunoglobulin 20% (C19-IG20%) compared to placebo in preventing development of symptomatic COVID-19 in asymptomatic … Read more

Cryo-EM captures early ribosome assembly in action

PubMed: A Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial Evaluating the Efficacy of Subcutaneous Hyperimmune Immunoglobulin Against COVID-19 in Asymptomatic Individuals with SARS-CoV-2 Infection for Disease Prevention.

Ribosome biogenesis is a fundamental multi-step cellular process in all domains of life that involves the production, processing, folding, and modification of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and ribosomal proteins. To obtain insights into the still unexplored early assembly phase of the bacterial 50S subunit, we exploited a minimal in vitro reconstitution system using purified ribosomal components … Read more

Severe SARS-Cov2 pneumonia in vaccinated patients: a multicenter cohort study

PubMed: A Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial Evaluating the Efficacy of Subcutaneous Hyperimmune Immunoglobulin Against COVID-19 in Asymptomatic Individuals with SARS-CoV-2 Infection for Disease Prevention.

Vaccination reduces risk of infection, hospitalization, and death due to SARS-Cov2. Vaccinated patients may however experience severe SARS-Cov2 disease. The objective was to describe clinical features of vaccinated patients requiring intensive care unit (ICU) admission due to SARS-Cov2 infection and compare them to a published cohort of unvaccinated patients. We performed a multicenter cohort study … Read more

Undergraduate Surgery Student Limits During the COVID-19 Pandemic

PubMed: A Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial Evaluating the Efficacy of Subcutaneous Hyperimmune Immunoglobulin Against COVID-19 in Asymptomatic Individuals with SARS-CoV-2 Infection for Disease Prevention.

Objective: Know the limitations students have encountered in their undergraduate surgery course during the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: Through an online questionnaire, students were asked to evaluate the surgery degree course, the limits encountered during the course, both those perceived by themselves and the limits they perceived in the teachers. Questions were asked about the overall … Read more

Resistance training and clinical status in patients with postdischarge symptoms after COVID-19: protocol for a randomized controlled crossover trial “The EXER-COVID Crossover Study”

PubMed: A Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial Evaluating the Efficacy of Subcutaneous Hyperimmune Immunoglobulin Against COVID-19 in Asymptomatic Individuals with SARS-CoV-2 Infection for Disease Prevention.

Background: Physical exercise induces a coordinated response of multiple organ systems, including the immune system. In fact, it has been proposed that physical exercise may modulate the immune system. However, the potential effect of an exercise program on COVID-19 survivors has not been investigated. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the modifications … Read more
