Autopsies of deceased COVID-19 patients and studies of patients with end-stage lung disease from COVID-19 have found a range of serious lung problems, the researchers noted. "Further research is still needed on why some patients recover completely, and others don't. Our study shows ...
Due to the sequelae and recurrence in patients with COVID-19 after recovery.This article,based on the theory of"preventive treatment of diseases"in traditional Chinese medicine,which believes that the three pathogenic factors of epidemic toxin,dampness,and lung deficiency are the fundamental causes ...
At Johns Hopkins, two clinics are dedicated to following COVID-19 patients to help them through the recovery process and to better understand the potential long-term problems associated with theinitial infection, the immune system response to the infection and the recovery phase in general....
various analyses such as histological assessment, investigation of lung activity, cell and viral load analysis, and inflammatory proteins and cytokines investigation can be assessed. COVID-19 does not have any precise therapeutic approaches.
Approximately 60% of moderate to severe COVID-19 ARDS survivors suffer residual pulmonary fibrosis and lung function impairment 3 months after hospital discharge. Pulmonary redox imbalance and fibroproliferation affect the resolution of residual pulmonary fibrosis and recovery from lung function impairment ...
"In our study group of patients, we found a high frequency of structural and functional lung abnormalities and persistent symptoms six months after a COVID-19 diagnosis, and a recovery trajectory that slowed after three months," concludes Judith Löffler-Ragg, a lung specialist at the Medical ...
To address the problems of lung aging, we found a key phenomenon in several cellular components of the lung. Expression ofFTLincreased in development and decreased in aging. As the component of ferritin, FTL regulates iron homeostasis in the cell90, and dysregulated iron homeostasis is a hallmark...
[60]. CYFRA 21-1, released after proteolytic cleavage during lung epithelial cell apoptosis or necrosis, serves as a marker in circulation and airways [61]. Elevated CK-18 levels in BALF correlate with ARDS severity, and plasma CYFRA21-1 levels are higher in severe ARDS and COVID-19 ...
Although LTX offers acceptable prospects for 5-year survival, chronic rejection and donor shortage remain to be major problems. To address the problem of donor shortage, living-donor lobar-LTX has been performed with satisfactory intermediate survival and functional results. In lobar-LTX, a lobe of...
Although the KAUST team developed DLPE primarily with post-COVID recovery in mind, they also tested the platform on chest scans taken from people with various other lung problems, including pneumonia, tuberculosis andlung cancer. The researchers showed how their tool could serve as a broad diagnost...
