Consumer wearable devices that continuously measure vital signs have been used to monitor the onset of infectious disease. Here, we show that data from consumer smartwatches can be used for the pre-symptomatic detection of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID
Thus, they were not asymptomatic, but pre-symptomatic, and they eventually experienced the onset of symptoms, which meant that they were reclassified into one of the other case defini- tions (i.e., mild, moderate, severe, critical) [5]. As of April 7, 2020, a total of 81 802 COVID...

23 It is interesting to compare the timing of drug administration. The current study and Ghassemi et al13 investigated SSRI use before tertiary care admission, whereas Reis et al23 investigated administration after the onset of symptoms consistent with COVID-19. Ultimately, the reason for the ...
Signs and symptoms of COVID-19 vary, ranging from mild respiratory tract illness similar to flu-like infections, to severe progressive pneumonia, multiorgan failure, and death. Common symptoms include fever, persistent dry cough, fatigue, shortness of breath, body ache, headache, loss of smell ...
Clinical data included the patient's history of infections within 6 weeks before admission, symptoms at admission, treatments during hospitalization, and outcomes at discharge. Children under the age of 5 were assessed using the children's Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), while those over 5 years old ...
Thus, our data show that gastrointestinal symptoms pre-admission were associated with increased severity of COVID-19. These results are consistent with other recent studies,4,7,8 but mostly these had not considered other potential confounding factors. There have been some contradictory reports.9,10...
The COVID-19 pandemic forced the digitalization of education to be accelerated to continue the teaching–learning processes in confined populations. The irruption of this fact caused the evolution that had previously been occurring in the integration of digital technologies, and in general information ...
The prevalence of post-COVID-19 syndrome symptoms was lower in vaccinated individuals (9.5%) compared to unvaccinated (14.6%), with a notable decrease in activity-limiting symptoms (adjusted OR 0.59, 95% CI 0.48-0.73). Vaccinated patients also showed a quicker recovery and return to work (HR...
The researchers therefore wanted to see if physiological changes, monitored by an activity tracker, could be used to develop a machine learning algorithm to detect COVID-19 infection before the start of symptoms. Participants (1,163 all under the age of 51) were drawn from the GAPP study bet...
