The COVID-19 pandemic has led to widespread long-term complications, known as post-COVID conditions (PCC), particularly affecting vulnerable populations such cancer patients. This study aims predict the incidence of PCC in hospitalised patients using data from a longitudinal cohort conducted four major university hospitals Moscow, Russia. Clinical have been collected during acute phase and follow-ups at 6 12 months post-discharge. A total 49 clinical features were evaluated, machine learning classifiers including logistic regression, random forest, support vector (SVM), k-nearest neighbours (KNN), neural network applied PCC. Model performance was assessed area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity. KNN demonstrated highest predictive performance, with an AUC 0.80, sensitivity 0.73, specificity 0.69. Severe pre-existing comorbidities significant predictors Machine models, KNN, showed some promise predicting patients, offering potential for early intervention personalised care. These findings emphasise importance monitoring recovering mitigate impact.

Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a debilitating disease, characterized by diverse array of symptoms including post-exertional malaise (PEM), severe fatigue, and cognitive impairments, all which drastically diminish the patients’ quality life. Despite its impact, no curative treatments exist, largely due to limited understanding disease’s underlying pathophysiology. Mitochondrial dysfunction, leading impaired energy production utilization, believed play key role in onset fatigue PEM, positioning it as potential pathophysiological mechanism ME/CFS. Additionally, disorder shows similarities chronic viral infections, with frequent reports immune system alterations, suggesting critical for (dys)functioning. In particular, roles senescence exhaustion—two fundamental states—remain poorly understood This state-of-the-art review explores how metabolic dysfunction may be interconnected ME/CFS, proposing that deficits directly impair function. By examining this metabolic–immune interplay, highlights pathways developing innovative therapeutic strategies target both metabolism regulation, offering hope improving patient outcomes.

Abstract Long coronavirus disease (COVID) is defined as the continuation or development of new symptoms three months after severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, and that last for at least two months, with no other explanation their cause. This includes various clinical manifestations affect multiple organ systems, such complications in respiratory, cardiovascular, neurological, musculoskeletal systems. The most commonly reported include fatigue, cognitive dysfunction, dyspnea, chest pain; however, prevalence severity these vary greatly among individuals. underlying mechanisms long COVID are complex multifaceted, encompassing viral persistence, immune system mitochondrial abnormalities, endothelial impairment, alterations microbiome.

However, current response rate to immunotherapy among patients must be improved; thus, new strategies for sensitizing are urgently needed. Erythroid progenitor cells (EPCs), population immature erythroid cells, exert potent immunosuppressive functions. As newly recognized population, EPCs have not yet been effectively targeted.
