Neutrophil and lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has emerged as a complementary marker in intensive care. This study aimed to associate high NLR values with mortality as the primary outcome, and length of stay and need for invasive mechanical ventilation as
A highly purified and bioactive immunoglobulin G monoclonal antibody against receptor-binding domain of SARS-CoV-2 (RBD-IgG-MAb) has been accurately quantified by amino acid determination using isotope dilution liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry
Besides the severe impact on the mortality rate in the world, the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the importance of having an optimal physical and mental health, since subjects with chronic diseases were the most affected. The aim of this review was
CONCLUSION: Our findings confirmed the impact of lockdown measures on both the absolute number of CrAg tests performed and detection (increase in 2020). A smaller impact on the median CD4 was noted. The long-term impact on patient management in

Several studies have shown that, in Chile, income inequality is relevant in explaining health inequities. The COVID-19 pandemic has also had a negative impact, with higher mortality rates in those municipalities of Greater Santiago with lower
Sleep duration has been linked to a wide range of negative health outcomes and to reduced life expectancy. We present genome-wide association studies of short ( ≤ 5 h) and long ( ≥ 10 h) sleep duration in adults of European (N = 445,966), African (N
