CONCLUSIONS: This study highlights that Long COVID occurs among young, healthy athletes and is a real consequence of COVID-19. Understanding the prevalence of Long COVID in this population requires longer follow-up and further study.
CONCLUSION: The prevalence of dry eye during the COVID-19 pandemic is significantly higher than before, and a higher prevalence is found among females and those having a visual display time of more than 4 hours per day.
To accelerate the discovery of novel drug candidates for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) therapeutics, we reported a series of machine learning (ML)-based models to accurately predict the anti-SARS-CoV-2 activities of screening compounds. We
Introduction In December 2019, a global outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 occurred in Wuhan, China, resulting in the COVID-19 pandemic. Since then, the virus has spread to all countries, necessitating a worldwide initiative to create effective treatments and
COVID-19 pandemic-related traumatic stress (PRTS) symptoms are reported in various populations, but risk factors in older adults with chronic medical conditions, remain understudied. We therefore examined correlates and pre-pandemic predictors of
Few older adults discuss their end-of-life care wishes with their physician, and even fewer minorities do this. We explored physicians' experience with advance care planning (ACP) including the barriers/facilitating factors encountered when
Most COVID-19 survivors have reported experiencing persistent symptoms after the infection - these types of cases are known as long COVID. Since Brazil was an epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic, a high burden of long COVID is expected. This study
Background During the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a dramatic upsurge in the prevalence of respiratory symptoms, which may have altered the usual pattern of bacterial infections and relevant decision-making. Objectives This study aimed to investigate
