CONCLUSION: Our findings revealed that post-COVID exertional dyspnoea is characterized by relevant clinical burden, with potential further strain on healthcare systems, already weakened by pandemic waves. Sex-based subgroup analysis reveals sex
Hematologic malignancies and chemotherapy are risk factors for COVID-19 progression and mortality. Immunocompromised hosts, particularly those with severe B-cell depletion, can shed viable viruses for extended periods, which can lead to persistent
CONCLUSION: While antiretroviral prophylaxis for HIV-exposed neonates remained high throughout, concerning data on low admissions and increased mortality, similar in HIV-exposed and unexposed neonates, and reduced HIV testing, suggest some aspects of
The growing occurrence of novel recombinants, such as XBB.1.16, has emerged and become predominant, raising concerns about the impact of genomic recombination on the evolution of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This
CONCLUSION: The results indicate that ICU nurses know enough about COVID-19 and have positive attitudes towards older adults diagnosed with it. Moreover, some descriptive characteristics affect the knowledge and attitudes of ICU nurses towards older
CONCLUSIONS: Wastewater surveillance may provide additional information for reinforcing infection control practices and lead to preventing transmission in a setting with high-risk residents. The low sensitivity for early warning in this real-world
Human humoral immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines exhibit substantial inter-individual variability and have been linked to vaccine efficacy. To elucidate the underlying mechanism behind this variability, we conducted a genome-wide association
