Piezoelectric biosensors and nanomaterials-based therapeutics for coronavirus and other viruses: A Mini-review
Curr Top Med Chem. 2022 Dec 26. doi: 10.2174/1568026623666221226091907. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSince late 2019, the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has caused considerable mortality worldwide. This pandemic raised concerns and provoked research on the diagnosis and treatment of viruses-based diseases. The accurate diagnosis of a virus requires high specificity and sensitivity. Piezoelectric sensors are analytical devices that work on mass-sensitivity-based micromechanical transducers. The change in the mass by the interaction between biological elements and the frequency is recorded by measuring the alternate ...

The prognostic role of micronutrient status and supplements in COVID-19 outcomes: A systematic review
Food Chem Toxicol. 2022 Feb 25:112901. doi: 10.1016/j.fct.2022.112901. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMicronutrients constitute an adjuvant treatment for respiratory viral infections. Since there is no effective antiviral therapy for COVID-19 yet, adjuvant intervention for the survival of critically ill patients may be significant. Search of the PubMed, CINAHL and Cochrane databases was carried out to find human studies investigating the prognostic role of micronutrient status and the effects of micronutrient supplementation intervention in COVID-19 outcomes of adult patients. Patients with certain comorbidities (diabetes m...
