People With Long COVID Have Greater MH Care Needs yet Face More Barriers
Adults with persistent COVID-19 symptoms are about twice as likely to report psychiatric problems such as depression, anxiety, or cognitive difficulties versus other adults, reports astudy inJAMA Network Open. Yet these adults with post –COVID-19 condition (PCC) are also more likely to report cost barriers to mental health treatment that delayed or inhibited their care.“People with PCC may have more difficulty paying for counseling or therapy due to lost employment wages and greater costs of managing complications from COVID-19, or they may experience challenges obtaining health plan authorization for these supports,â€...

Sleep Disorders in Patients with Severe COVID-19 Treated in the Intensive Care Unit: A Real-Life Descriptive Study in Vietnam
CONCLUSION: Sleep problems are highly prevalence among hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19 in the ICU. Healthcare providers should pay attention to sleep problems and their associated symptoms to initiate appropriate treatment to improve severe COVID-19 patients' health status and minimize the risk of death.PMID:38665018 | DOI:10.24976/Discov.Med.202436183.65 (Source: Discovery Medicine)

Predicting oxygen needs in COVID-19 patients using chest radiography multi-region radiomics
The objective is to evaluate the performance of blood test results, radiomics, and a combination of the two data types on the prediction of the 24-h oxygenation support need for the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. In this retrospective cohort study, COVID-19 patients with confirmed real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction assay (RT-PCR) test results between February 2020 and August 2021 were investigated. Initial blood cell counts, chest radiograph, and the status of oxygenation support used within 24 h were collected (n = 290; mean age, 45 ± 19 years; 125 men). Radiomics features from six l...

Whole genome analysis reveals unique traits of SARS-CoV-2 in pediatric patients
This study investigated potential age-related variations through genomic characterization of the virus under common clinical settings. A cohort comprising 71 SARS-CoV-2 strains from both infected infants and accompanying adults, diagnosed via RT-PCR at a tertiary pediatric hospital and research center, underwent Illumina paired-end sequencing. The subsequent analysis involved standard genomic screening, phylogeny construction, and mutational analyses. The analyzed SARSCoV- 2 strains were compared with globally circulating variants. The overall distribution revealed 67.61 % Delta, 25.7 % Omicron, and 1 % either Kappa or Alp...
