The non-COVID-19 pneumonia group showed a higher (24% vs. 17%), although not statistically significant in-hospital mortality rate; the average duration of hospitalization was longer for COVID patients (30 vs. 9days, p =.0001). Conclusions In the early stages of the COVID pandemic, our ...
. An interaction (pinteraction< 0.001) between VE and vaccine type (mRNA vaccines vs. not mRNA vaccines) was found; the VE for mRNA vaccines seemed to be higher than others. The summary VE of booster vaccination against the Delta variant was 95.5% (95% CI, 94.2–96.5). Vaccine effectiven...
SARS-CoV-2 infection can lead to a spectrum of various clinical symptoms, from asymptomatic, to partial flu, pneumonia and death due to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, all of those cases should be considered, because the asymptomatic carriers of the virus have led to a h...
In a prospective cohort study of confirmed COVID-19 infected adults, anosmia-dysgeusia was associated with younger age (< 65 years old), and in cases with severe pneumonia only opacities of lung surface on X-rays > 50% and higher heart rate at admission were independent predictors of...
COVID-19 poses a significant burden to populations worldwide. Although the pandemic has accelerated digital transformation, little is known about the influence of digitalization on pandemic developments. Therefore, this country-level study aims to explor
A pneumonia of unknown cause detected in Wuhan, China was first reported to the World Health Organization Country Office in China on 31 December 2019 and recognised as a pandemic on 11 March 2020. Reported illnesses have ranged from mild symptoms to severe illness and death for confirmed COVID...

“Binary cls” denotes the classification between non-COVID-19 and COVID-19; and “Ternary cls” is the classification among normal controls, COVID-19, and common pneumonia (CP). For “Binary cls”, our model achieves 98.18% Acc, 97.75% Sen., 98.44% Spec., and 99.29% AUC, which ...
Irish health services have been repurposed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Critical care services have been re-focused on the management of COVID-19
SARS-CoV is the contributory agent of the SARS, also known as “atypical pneumonia”. The coronaviruses that spread before that time in humans mostly caused mild infections in immune-competent people. But after the emergence of SARS, another highly infectious coronavirus, MERS-CoV, appeared in...
