The detection of nucleic acid sequences in parallel with the discrimination of single nucleotide variations (SNVs) is critical for research and clinical applications. A few limitations make the detection technically challenging, such as too small
Cytokine storm is one of the leading causes of death in patients with COVID-19. Metformin has been shown to inhibit the action of a wide range of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, and TNF-α which may ultimately affect cytokine storm due to
We develop a proportional incidence model that estimates vaccine effectiveness (VE) at the population level using conditional likelihood for aggregated data. Our model assumes that the population counts of clinical outcomes for an infectious disease
CONCLUSIONS: This study found that the majority of participants believed in the safety of the COVID-19 vaccines and emphasized the responsibility of the healthcare providers in increasing awareness among the population about the importance of the
Technology and its continuous advancement facilitate human beings to get rid of their criticality and limitation. Applied artificial intelligence (AAI) is one of the latest forms that delimited the limitation of human beings. Smartwatch acts as an
CONCLUSION: Fewer patients with severe IBDs accessed regular dental care compared to their matched pair counterparts prior to the pandemic. This could indicate that access to care is more difficult for those with severe IBDs. Patients felt that oral
The use of soluble recombinant ACE2 (rACE2) as a decoy capable of blocking SARS-CoV-2 entry into cells has been envisaged as a therapeutic strategy to reduce viral loads in patients suffering from severe COVID-19. We engineered a novel form of rACE2
Primary care plays a vital role for individuals and families in accessing care, keeping well, and improving quality of life. However, the complexities and uncertainties in the primary care delivery system (e.g., patient no-shows/walk-ins, staffing
