CONCLUSIONS: BMT gas masks can be monitored for the presence of respiratory pathogens using RT-PCR. The decontamination process removed all viable respiratory pathogens tested from the gas masks. This study demonstrates that RT-PCR can be used to
CONCLUSION: The fetal/neonatal response to maternal inflammation differed based on immune cell subset and etiology of inflammation, but the global neonatal cytokine responses were similar between exposure groups. This suggests that targeting
CONCLUSION: CMV infection adversely impacted the outcomes of critical COVID-19 patients, resulting in longer ICU stays, longer mechanical ventilation uses and prolonged shedding of SARS-CoV-2.
CONCLUSION: The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted MCH services utilisation in Malaysia. While most MCH services were negatively affected by the lockdown implementation with varying degrees of recovery, infant immunisation showed resilience
Non-pharmaceutical interventions minimize social contacts, hence the spread of respiratory pathogens such as influenza and SARS-CoV-2. Globally, there is a paucity of social contact data from the workforce. In this study, we quantified two-day
CONCLUSIONS: Results confirm that more than 10% of individuals recovering from acute SARS-CoV-2 infection showed long-term consequences and the observed persistent symptom duration was 178 days on average.
CONCLUSION: The lockdown may have negatively affected cardiovascular risk, thus increasing the incidence of ACS, particularly in younger patients who probably underwent more relevant lifestyle changes, with several consequent anthropometric and
CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrated that COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy is not associated with an increased risk of miscarriage in gestational weeks 6-20. This study adds to the growing body of evidence demonstrating the safety of COVID-19
