Treatments for COVID-19
Annu Rev Med. 2023 Sep 18. doi: 10.1146/annurev-med-052422-020316. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe treatment for COVID-19 has evolved rapidly since the start of the pandemic and now consists mainly of antiviral and immunomodulatory agents. Antivirals, such as remdesivir and nirmatrelvir-ritonavir, have proved to be most useful earlier in illness (e.g., as outpatient therapy) and for less severe disease.

Health profile of workers from different industries in Singapore
CONCLUSION: Health issues are prevalent in the workforce and may affect work and employee safety. It is increasingly important for employees' health to be considered in risk assessments and prioritised in workplace safety and health management systems and strategies.

CONCLUSIONS: Pravastatin lowers blood total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglyceride in a dose-dependent linear fashion. This review did not provide a good estimate of the incidence of harms associated with pravastatin because of the lack of reporting of adverse effects in 48.4% of the randomized placebo-controlled trials.PMID:37721222 | PMC:PMC10506175 | DOI:10.1002/14651858.CD013673.pub2
