CONCLUSIONS: The Life+Health Study concluded recruitment during the pandemic with a lower-than-expected response rate, as also reported in 4 other US publications focused on the impact of COVID-19 on response rates in community-based studies. Our
Road-deposited sediments (RDS) on urban impervious surfaces are important carriers of heavy metals (HMs), and can contribute to urban runoff pollution. With the outbreak of COVID-19, chlorinated disinfectants (CDs) have been extensively sprayed on
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique is one of the most potent tools in molecular biology. It is extensively used for various applications ranging from medical diagnostics to forensic science and food quality testing. This technique has
Severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-1 (SARS-CoV-2) regulates autophagic flux by blocking the fusion of autophagosomes with lysosomes, causing the accumulation of membranous vesicles for replication. Multiple SARS-CoV-2 proteins regulate
CONCLUSION: Glaucoma may be a rare but severe ocular adverse event of the Moderna vaccines. The ophthalmologist should pay attention to the risk of increased IOP following COVID-19 vaccination.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study demonstrates the effectiveness of deep learning methods for identifying factors contributing to vaccine attitudes in different regions. By determining these factors, policymakers and medical institutions can develop more
Multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS) is a new and rare complication of COVID-19 that usually occurs in children. An increasing number of cases of MIS in adults are described in the literature. The condition is associated with high mortality, and
Eculizumab has proven to be effective in patients with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) in clinical trials and in the real world, but the optimal duration of therapy remains unknown. Standard maintenance treatment is often life-long, but the
There are many examples of remote technologies that are clinically effective and provide numerous benefits to adults with hearing loss. Despite this, the uptake of remote technologies for hearing healthcare has been both low and slow until the onset
