CONCLUSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The continued decline in prevalence and CMFL observed ~2 years after MDA disruption is consistent with mathematical predictions (ONCHOSIM) and shows that additional efforts and resources are not needed to mitigate the effects
This meta-analysis aims to compare corneal injuries and function after femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) and conventional phacoemulsification surgery (CPS). A comprehensive literature search of PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane
In the biomedical field, the time interval from infection to medical diagnosis is a random variable that obeys the log-normal distribution in general. Inspired by this biological law, we propose a novel back-projection infected-susceptible-infected
CONCLUSIONS: The HCW had a higher chance of reporting symptoms than non-HCW aged over 18 years in the labor force. These results emphasize guidelines for preventive measures to reduce workplace exposures in the healthcare facilities. The prevalence
CONCLUSIONS: Periodontitis was associated with worse COVID-19 outcomes, suggesting the relevance of periodontal care to reduce the burden of overall inflammation. Understanding the crosstalk between SARS-CoV-2 infection and chronic conditions such as
CONCLUSIONS: Advanced age, high fever, increases in indicators such as WBC, basophils, CRP, LDH, high-sensitivity troponin, pro-BNP, and D-dimer, and decreases in indicators, including lymphocytes, eosinophils, and albumin, might forebode a critical
CONCLUSION: Conclusions: The transition to online education had a negative impact on the physical and mental health of students, which was manifested in the presence and growth of anxiety and depression, a lack of live communication, sleep and eating
CONCLUSIONS: Ensovibep proved safe in this first-in-human safety study and exhibited pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters consistent with the expected treatment period required for acute COVID-19 infection.
CONCLUSIONS: This study shows the benefit of using multiple methods to support increased awareness of and interest in lung cancer screening, particularly when educational messaging through CHAs is used. Clear guideline-based messages from healthcare
