CONCLUSIONS: This study is one of the first to investigate cellular and humoral immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 immunization in cancer patients on active therapy after each vaccine dose. COVID-19 immunizations helped cancer patients develop an
Pregnant women are at higher risk of developing severe COVID-19 symptoms. Therefore, booster dose against COVID-19 was recommended for this special population in Jordan. However, vaccine hesitancy/refusal remains the main obstacle to providing
CONCLUSION: COVID-19 infection can exacerbate pericardial effusion in a patient with ESRD, post renal transplant. Preventing cardiac tamponade, a sub-xiphoid pericardial window remains an effective measure in treating recurrent pericardial effusion.
CONCLUSION: Age >50 years, peripheral oxygen saturation/fraction of inspired oxygen ratio 200, mean symptom duration of >4 days, elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase, and hypoalbuminemia are independent predictors of mortality in severe COVID-19
BACKGROUND: Wastewater monitoring is increasingly used for community surveillance of infectious diseases, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic as the genomic footprints of pathogens shed by infected individuals can be traced in the environment
CONCLUSIONS: One of the first studies to demonstrate high feasibility and acceptability of self-testing using SARS-CoV-2 Ag-RDTs among general and health-care worker populations in low- and middle-income countries potentially supporting large scale
Reliable detection of specific antibodies against pathogens by lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) greatly depends on the composition of the detectable complex and the order of its assembly. We compared three LFIA formats for revealing anti-SARS-CoV-2
The possible benefits of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on mechanical and clinical outcomes in patients with Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) remain controversial. We conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of IMT in the rehabilitation
