The COVID-19 pandemic affected many essential aspects of public health, including newborn screening programs (NBS). Centers reported missing cases of inherited metabolic disease as a consequence of decreased diagnostic process quality during the
Aim: To compare the effectiveness of thromboembolic risk scores in determining in-hospital events of COVID-19 patients. Methods: This retrospective study included a total of 410 consecutive COVID-19 patients. Scores including CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc-HS
With pervasive health misinformation and mistrust, many of those at greatest risk from COVID-19 have demonstrated lower vaccine acceptance. In Chicago, IL, surveillance data has revealed lower rates of vaccine uptake among Black and Latinx
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that the third dose of the mRNA vaccine could be beneficial in RA patients with risk factors including older age, male sex, and corticosteroid use after two doses of ChAdOx1-S nCoV-19.
Policy measures aimed at containing the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic had unintended consequences on economic activities globally. In this study, we isolate and investigate the short-term partial impacts of six such measures on the farm and nonfarm
CONCLUSION: Immunodeficient patients have impaired immune responses to mRNA and viral vector COVID-19 vaccines that appear to be influenced by vaccine formulation. Understanding the relative roles of T-cell- and antibody-mediated protection as well
Persistent somatic and neuropsychiatric symptoms have been frequently described in patients after infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 even after a benign clinical course of the acute infection during the early phases of the
The pressured experienced due to COVID-19 for young people has become clearly visible in the domain of well-being. Although the psychological effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on emerging adults have been examined, little is known about the role
