This study included patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 infection or clinically and radiologically confirmed COVID-19 infections who were admitted to the university hospital adult ICUs between March 2020 and January 2022. Demographic data, recent exposure and trav...
of co-infections (as well as superinfections) in patients with COVID infection on hospital admission for more targeted initial antibiotic use, and to this end, it has been suggested that procalcitonin, in particular, may be a useful biomarker [27]. In the very early study from Wuhan, most ...
and to this end, it has been suggested that procalcitonin, in particular, may be a useful biomarker [27]. In the very early study from Wuhan, most patients with COVID infection had normal procalcitonin levels on admission, but four patients...
COVID-19 primarily presents as a respiratory tract infection with symptoms varying from mild flu-like illness to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) [2, 3]. Viral-related respiratory infections belonging to the same family of coronaviruses such as SARS-CoV and Middle East respiratory ...
This secondary analysis aimed to explore patterns of co-infection and intensive care unit-acquired infections (ICU-AI) and the relationship to use of corticosteroids in a large, international cohort of critically ill COVID-19 patients. Methods This is a multicenter, international, observational ...
we retrospectively compared secon-dary infection rates on ECMO for patients with COVID-19 topatients with influenza. Although both viruses can cause devas-tating pulmonary disease, unlike influenza, patients hospitalizedwith COVID-19 are treated with immunosuppression.Additionally, COVID-19 has been as...
The symptoms of COVID-19 infection are primarily respiratory with cough, dyspnea, myalgia, and fever, although often indistinguishable from other viral illnesses.1, 2, 3,13 Many presents with mild and non-specific symptoms. Only a few seek medical attention, especially during the early phase of...

Abstract Secondary hyperhidrosis is a multifactorial condition that poses unique diagnostic and management challenges. Distinguishing secondary from primary hyperhidrosis remains difficult due to overlapping symptoms. This review consolidates existing evidence on the numerous underlying causes and pathophysiologic me...
Secondary Analysis of Transcriptomes of SARS-CoV-2 Infection Models to Characterize COVID-19Standard transcriptomic analyses alone have limited power in capturing the molecular mechanisms driving disease pathophysiology and outcomes. To overcome thisdoi:10.2139/ssrn.3757073Ghandikota, Sudhir...
