A Potential Role of the CD47/SIRPalpha Axis in COVID-19 Pathogenesis
Curr Issues Mol Biol. 2021 Sep 22;43(3):1212-1225. doi: 10.3390/cimb43030086.ABSTRACTThe coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is the cause of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Most SARS-CoV-2 infections are mild or even asymptomatic. However, a small fraction of infected individuals develops severe, life-threatening disease, which is caused by an uncontrolled immune response resulting in hyperinflammation. However, the factors predisposing individuals to severe disease remain poorly understood. Here, we show that levels of CD47, which is known to mediate immune escape in cancer and virus-infected cells, are elevated in SARS-CoV-2-infected ...

Risk contribution of comorbidities in hospitalized patients with Covid 19 pneumonia
Background: The Covid 19 pandemic has a vast socioeconomic impact worldwide. Obtaining information about the course of the disease is vital for better management.Aim: To assess the risk, comorbidities (CMs) and mortality in hospitalized patients with Covid 19 pneumonia.Methods: The information was gathered from the medical registry and statistical analysis was performed using SPSS.Results: A total of 337 patient were analyzed. Males were 197 (58,5%). Positive PCR results had 307 (91,1%) patients. Almost half of the patients were with respiratory failure on admission (47,1%). At least one comorbidity was found in 84,6%. Fro...

Controversies over the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
This study is a retrospective analysis of our PAH patients treated in 2020 compared to the dynamics of the last 12 years. We had 48 PAH patients, 51.72±16.64 years, 72.91% female. All patients had chronic anticoagulant therapy(58.33%) and/or antiplatelet; 33.33% had long term oxygen therapy. Three patients with secondary forms were confirmed with COVID-19, all hospitalized (6.25% infection rate versus 3.29% in general). One patient died(75 years with scleroderma, stroke), two patients were cured (mild forms). In total only three patients died in 2020. Surprisingly, compared with 2008-2019 (101 patients/ 41 deaths, 3...

Thromboembolic events in COVID-19 patients : A Tunisian case series study
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can lead to systemic coagulation activation and thrombotic complications(TC), which may lead to fatal outcomes if not diagnosed and managed appropriately.We aimed to report the incidence and characteristics of venous and arterial thrombotic complications(TC) in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 and to investigate the predictive factors of their occurrence.A retrospective study including 200 patients with COVID-19 confirmed by a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction test, admitted between March 2020 and January 2021 in the pulmonary departement B at Abderrahman Mami Hospi...

Home Blood Pressure and Telemedicine: A Modern Approach for Managing Hypertension During and After COVID-19 Pandemic
AbstractHypertension is the most common cardiovascular risk factor for acute cardiovascular outcomes, including acute coronary disease, stroke, chronic kidney disease and congestive heart failure. Despite the fact that it represents the most prevalent risk factor in the general population, mostly in elderly individuals, its awareness is still relatively low, being about one third of patients living with undiagnosed hypertension and high risk of experiencing acute cardiovascular events. In addition, though recent improvement in pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapeutic options, hypertension is largely uncontrolled...
