PubMed COVID-19 Clinical Care

Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is an acute, rare, and potentially life-threatening condition with high morbidity and mortality. It is characterized by a blistering rash and erosions with mucosal involvement, which depending on the extent of the skin

CONCLUSIONS: TCM improves access to care and is successful when a relationship of trust between the nurse case manager and patient can develop over time. Healthcare policymakers and primary care providers should consider the benefits of TCM and

Since SARS-CoV-2 BA.5 (Omicron) emerged and spread in 2022, Omicron lineages have markedly diversified. Here we review the evolutionary trajectories and processes that underpin the emergence of these lineages, and identify the most prevalent

CONCLUSIONS: We present a more precise picture of COVID-19 blood serum parameters. Accordingly, considering sex and comorbidities should be included in future metabolomics studies for improved and refined patient stratification. Due to metabolic

RNA has emerged as a revolutionary and important tool in the battle against emerging infectious diseases, with roles extending beyond its applications in vaccines, in which it is used in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since their development

Mutations within viral epitopes can result in escape from T cells, but the contribution of mutations in flanking regions of epitopes in SARS-CoV-2 has not been investigated. Focusing on two SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein CD8^(+) epitopes, we investigated

In December 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted emergency authorization for Paxlovid® as an antiviral treatment for COVID-19. Paxlovid® is composed of two tablets, nirmatrelvir and ritonavir. Dose adjustment is necessary in

Since the early phase of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, a number of research institutes have been sequencing and sharing high-quality severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) genomes to trace the route of

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a single-stranded enveloped positive RNA virus and the cause of the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Chloroquine (CQ), an antimalarial drug, was reported to be

The SARS-CoV-2 virus gains entry into human cells by exploiting the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), a key component known as the spike protein (S), as a point of entry. Initially, SARS-CoV-2 suppresses the natural function of ACE2, leading to
