Serum Immunoglobulin Levels as Potential Biomarkers of COVID-19 Pneumonia
CONCLUSIONS: Total IgM was associated with increased survival and decreased comorbidity, and total IgG was associated with length of hospitalization. IgM may predict the body's initial ability to produce humoral immune responses, and IgG may function as a possible signature of chronic antigenic responses and inflammation, associated with comorbidities that increase COVID-19 hospitalization. Evaluating total IgM and IgG as prognostic biomarkers in COVID-19 pneumonia patients may contribute to improved management and clinical outcomes.PMID:37437928

Impact of COVID ‐19 on the distribution of pathogenic bacteria in the lower respiratory tract of the elderly
ConclusionThe major bacteria identified in sputum culture of hospitalized elderly patients wereK. pneumonia,P. aeruginosa,A. baumannii,S. maltophilia, andE. coli. Furthermore, the distribution ofS. maltophilia andA. baumannii between the COVID-19 and CNT groups was found to be significantly different (p <  .05), while there were no significant differences in the distribution of other bacteria.

Ralph Baric stepped onto the auditorium stage at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and looked out at the sparse audience that had come to hear him speak. On the large projector screen hanging behind him, the following words appeared: How Bad the Next Pandemic Could Be, What Might It Look Like, and Will We be Ready. The date was May 29, 2018. “Well, I have to admit I’m a little worried about giving this talk,” Baric said. “The reason is being labelled a harbinger of doom.” The screen shifted, and images of the four horsemen of the apocalypse—Death, Famine, War, and Plague&mda...

Corticosteroid-Associated Avascular Necrosis of the Femoral Head in Patients with Severe COVID-19: A Single-Center Study
CONCLUSIONS The data from this study corroborate earlier studies and case reports, suggesting an increased occurrence of AVN of the femoral head during the COVID-19 pandemic due to the high-dose corticosteroid therapy employed for patients hospitalized with severe COVID-19 pneumonia.PMID:37431094 | DOI:10.12659/MSM.940965
