Researchers reveal possible role for anti-idiotype antibodies in long-term effects of COVID-19

With around 256 million cases and more than 5 million deaths worldwide, the COVID-19 pandemic has challenged scientists and those in the medical field.

Extreme heat associated with greater risk of adverse cardiovascular incidents

A consequence of global warming is a greater frequency and intensity of extreme heat events. This extreme heat is associated with a greater risk of adverse cardiovascular incidents, especially for adults with pre-existing cardiovascular diseases.

Lung autopsies provide a clearer picture of how SARS-CoV-2 virus spreads and causes damage

Lung autopsy and plasma samples from people who died of COVID-19 have provided a clearer picture of how the SARS-CoV-2 virus spreads and damages lung tissue.

Thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome rare but serious adverse event associated with Ad26.COV2.S vaccination

A recent study conducted in the United States has revealed that thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome following adenoviral vector-based coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination is a rare event.

Study analyzes association between obesity and endothelial dysfunction in COVID-19 patients

In COVID-19 patients, obesity is the factor most associated with the development of endothelial dysfunction, a condition in which the blood vessels become unable to contract and relax adequately, increasing the risk of events such as heart attacks, thrombosis (blood clotting), and stroke.

Can COVID-19 vaccination lead to neurological complications?

A new review article discusses the neurological side effects due to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

Ad26.COV2.S vaccine effectiveness for preventing COVID-19

A group of multi-national researchers has expanded on previous research to conduct a preliminary evaluation of the effectiveness of the Ad26.COV2.S vaccine via HER data.

Study finds SARS-CoV-2 infection of endothelial cells unlikely

Researchers from the University of Queensland have investigated whether infection of endothelial cells with SARS-CoV-2 is possible.

Identification of a candidate effector gene at COVID-19 risk locus

A new study focuses on developing a comprehensive platform to decode the effects of sequence variation identified by GWAS.

Oral drug works just as well as conventional therapy for anemia in patients with kidney disease

Anemia is a common and sometimes debilitating problem among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Anemia can occur when the kidneys become damaged, limiting the production of erythropoietin (EPO) - a hormone that signals to the body to make red blood cells.

Study finds benefits of COVID vaccination in pregnancy outweighs risks

A new preprint explores the efficacy of vaccination against infection with SARS-CoV-2 in pregnancy.

Automated method shows predictive power for COVID-19 in-hospital mortality

Researchers focussed on the S-learner strategy of estimating the conditional average treatment effect.

4 Nov 2021

Researchers identify an important mediator of thrombosis in CKD patients

Researchers have identified a potential new signaling pathway and enzyme that may help further the understanding of blood clot formation in chronic kidney disease patients and ultimately be targeted for therapeutic purposes.

Study finds link between genes and amount of bacterial toxins in the blood

Lipopolysaccharide, a virulence factor produced by bacteria, is a toxin that can cause a systemic inflammation via the circulation. In a recently completed study, genetic markers were discovered which are associated with a heightened lipopolysaccharide level in the blood.

Compared to influenza, COVID-19 is more likely to cause venous thrombosis

New research published in the medRxiv* preprint server suggests that COVID-19 illness incurs a greater 90-day risk of venous thrombosis than the flu. However, arterial thrombosis remains a higher risk among people with the influenza virus.

Researchers uncover the role of estrogen in exercise

Experts in sex as a biological variable are uncovering the role of estrogen in exercise. The researchers will present their findings virtually at the American Physiological Society's (APS) New Trends in Sex and Gender Medicine conference.

Researchers identify common side effects of three COVID-19 vaccines

COVID-19 vaccines remain the best tool in the pandemic toolbox against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). But they are not perfect; reports have surfaced of mild to severe side effects after vaccination. A new study from researchers in the Lampe & Company GmbH & Co. KG compared the severity of adverse events from each coronavirus vaccine.

Formal health care transition programs needed to provide uninterrupted support for youth with Kawasaki disease

Kawasaki disease is the most common cause of acquired heart disease that develops in early childhood, creating inflammation in blood vessels, particularly heart arteries.

Chilblain-like lesions and COVID-19

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic brought about by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has also been responsible for various cutaneous manifestations. Among them, chilblain-like lesions (CLL) have been found to occur more frequently.

7 Oct 2021

Autoimmune disease drug helps prevent lung damage, death in mice with SARS-CoV-2 infection

In a new paper, researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago report that a drug approved for treating patients with autoimmune disease helped to prevent lung damage and death in mice infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19 in humans.
