The global spreading of SARS-CoV-2 and the emergence new variants underscore ongoing need to develop vaccines antiviral drugs. While electromagnetic acoustic waves have well-known virucidal properties, their application in therapeutic settings has been limited due harming effects biological matter. Here, we investigates potential ultrasound interfere with SARS-CoV-2. Specifically, study 1–20 MHz frequency range determine impact on viral envelope Our vitro experiments demonstrate exhibits a effect without production heat or cavitation. This offers promising physics-based approach combat potentially other spherical viruses, broadening scope treatments.

The impact of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection during pregnancy on the developing fetal brain is poorly understood. Other antenatal infections such as influenza have been associated with adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes in offspring. Although vertical transmission has rarely observed SARS-CoV-2 to date, given potential for profound maternal immune activation (MIA), likely. Here we review evidence that and other viral can result maternal, placental, activation, ultimately offspring morbidity. Finally, highlight need cellular models development better understand short- long-term impacts next generation.

Abstract Widespread SARS-CoV-2 infection among pregnant individuals has led to a generation of fetuses exposed in utero, but the long-term impact such exposure remains unknown. Although fetal is rare, children born mothers with may be at increased risk for adverse neurodevelopmental and cardiometabolic outcomes. Fetal programming effects are likely mediated least part by maternal immune activation. In this review, we discuss recent evidence regarding prenatal on maternal, placental, response, as well implications health offspring. Extrapolating from what known about activation other contexts (e.g., obesity, HIV, influenza), review potential morbidity Based available data suggesting risk, highlight importance establishing large cohorts monitor offspring SARS-CoV-2–positive sequelae.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak which started in December rapidly developed into a global health concern. Pregnant women are susceptible to respiratory infections and can experience adverse outcomes. This systematic review meta-analysis compared pregnancy outcomes according COVID-19 status. MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library databases were searched for relevant articles published between 1, 2019, October 19, 2022. Main inclusion criterion was any population-based, cross-sectional, cohort, or case-control study that assessed with without laboratory-confirmed COVID-19. Sixty-nine studies including 1,606,543 pregnant (39,716 [2.4%] diagnosed COVID-19) retrieved.
