BackgroundMore severe cases of COVID- 19 are more likely to be hospitalized and around one-fifth, needing ICU admission. Understanding the common laboratory features of COVID-19 in more severe cases versus non-severe patients could be quite useful for clinicians and might help to predict the model of disease progression. This systematic review and ...

BackgroundPercutaneous coronary intervention is among the most common therapeutic interventions in cardiology. This procedure may, however, be associated with a rare, though life-threatening complication: acute coronary perforation (CP). CP is primarily treated using covered stents, which are made of bare metal stents with a polytetrafluoroethylene...

BackgroundKnee osteoarthritis is a common cause of musculoskeletal pain and a leading cause of disability and healthcare economic burden. The optimum treatment for knee osteoarthritis is still inconclusive. A network meta-analysis is required to assess the efficacy and safety of treatments and provide more scientific medical evidence.MethodsRelevan...

BackgroundDetection of atrial fibrillation (AF) after cryptogenic stroke (CS) has therapeutic implications, but the most effective type and optimal duration of monitoring have still to be defined. This study that involved patients with CS or transient ischemic attack (TIA), all of whom carried an implantable cardiac monitor (ICM), sought to assess ...

BackgroundIn the present work, we investigated the effects of aqueous extract of Maca (AEM) on energy metabolism and immunoregulation in spleen-deficient mice.MethodWe established a cyclophosphamide-induced spleen-deficiency model with ginseng, a herb that strengthens splenic function, as a control. Sixty male Kunming mice were randomly divided amo...

In the human population, social contacts are a key for transmission of bacteria and viruses. The use of face masks seems to be critical to prevent the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 for the period, in which therapeutic interventions are lacking. In this review, we describe the history of masks from the middle age to modern times.

BackgroundTransitional fractures are fractures in adolescents where partial closure of the epiphyseal growth plate has occurred. These fractures are most commonly reported in the distal tibia. With respect to the distal radius, only a few case reports describing transitional fractures exist. Furthermore, relatively little is known about epiphyseal ...
