Identification of the regulatory mechanism of ACE2 in COVID-19-induced kidney damage with systems genetics approach
Description
Studies showed that SARS-CoV-2 can directly target the kidney and induce renal damage. As the cell surface receptor for SARS-CoV-2 infection, the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) plays a pivotal role for renal physiology and function. Thus, it
Improvement of CNR in low-count PET scans using tissue-scattered data as initial estimate in non-TOF MLEM reconstruction
Description
We have proposed a method to improve contrast-to-noise ratios (CNRs) of lesions in low-count PET scans using the rejected single scattered (inside tissue) data. Indeed, with the advent of high-quality detectors regarding their energy and time
Investigating the impact of disposable surgical face-masks on face identity and emotion recognition in adults with autism spectrum disorder
Description
With the outburst of the COVID-19 pandemic, disposable surgical face-masks (DSFMs) have been widely adopted as a preventive measure. DSFMs hide the bottom half of the face, thus making identity and emotion recognition very challenging, both in

Immunogenicity against wild-type and Omicron SARS-CoV-2 after a third dose of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine in healthy adolescents
Description
INTRODUCTION: Two doses of inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine CoronaVac cannot elicit high efficacy against symptomatic COVID-19, especially against the Omicron variant, but that can be improved by a third dose in adults. The use of a third dose of
Influencing factors of health resource allocation and utilisation before and after COVID-19 based on RIF-I-OLS decomposition method: a longitudinal retrospective study in Guangdong Province, China
Description
CONCLUSIONS: Guangdong Province's health resource allocation and utilisation were still concentrated in economically developed regions from 2017 to 2020. The health resource allocation inequality indices increased, especially under COVID-19, but the
Importance of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity during the COVID-19 pandemic: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Description
Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) has been shown to have a favorable effect on many diseases as a complementary therapy and is a critical component of healthy living. During the pandemic era, physical activity has been promoted for
Intravenous ravulizumab in mechanically ventilated patients hospitalised with severe COVID-19: a phase 3, multicentre, open-label, randomised controlled trial
Description
BACKGROUND: The complement pathway is a potential target for the treatment of severe COVID-19. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of ravulizumab, a terminal complement C5 inhibitor, in patients hospitalised with severe COVID-19 requiring invasive
