CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the combination of GITC and Triton X-100 detergent is a highly efficient method for RNA extraction and direct RT-LAMP detection of SARS-CoV-2 in clinical samples, providing a valuable tool for the rapid and cost

Severe course of COVID-19 is largely determined by hyperactivation of the immune system, or cytokine storm, in which immune cells (lymphocytes, monocytes, etc.) play a major role. Using low-voltage scanning electron microscopy, we studied the

Severe COVID-19 outcomes have been reported in people living with HIV (PLWH), yet the underlying pathogenetic factors are largely unknown. We therefore aimed to assess SARS-CoV-2 RNAemia and plasma cytokines in PLWH hospitalized for COVID-19
