Post-COVID-19 respiratory sequelae often involve lung damage, which is called residual abnormalities, and potentially lead to chronic issues. The adaptive immune response, involving T-cells B-cells, plays a critical role in pathogen control, inflammation, tissue repair. However, the link between dysregulation development of abnormalities remains unclear. 109 patients discharged with after COVID-19 were followed for 12 months divided as full recovery (FRG, n = 88) persistent (PLAG, 21). Cell profiling analysis was done using flow cytometry at 24 h not antigen-specific vitro stimulation. Plasma or supernatant levels IFN-g, IL-4, IL-10, IgM, IgG assessed, 10 (5 FRG, 5 PLAG) randomly selected detailed cell phenotyping functional peripheral blood mononuclear cells cytometry.

ABSTRACT Background COVID‐19 continues to be a major global health challenge. Inhaled siRNA‐based MIR 19 has been shown reduce the time clinical improvement in patients hospitalized with moderate COVID‐19. Methods We conducted an open‐label, randomized, controlled multicenter phase 2b‐3 trial (NCT05783206) evaluating safety and efficacy of inhaled siR‐7‐EM/KK‐46 (MIR 19) (5.55 mg/day) comparison standard care (control group) outpatients mild ( N = 492 for each group). The primary endpoint was proportion who developed or severe by 28th day randomization. Results Moderate course disease detected 14 (2.85%) 34 (6.91%) mg) therapy groups, respectively (the difference proportions −4.107% [95% CI: −7.28% −1.03%] p 0.002)). Adverse events (AE) were reported 77 (15.65%) from group, while group AEs registered 100 (20.33%) patients. No severe, treatment‐related observed group. Conclusions siR‐7‐EM/KK‐46, SARS‐CoV‐2‐specific RNAi‐based drug, well‐tolerated significantly decreased progression moderate/severe

ABSTRACT An estimated 10% of coronavirus disease (COVID‐19) survivors suffer from persisting symptoms referred to as long COVID (LC), a condition for which approved treatment options are still lacking. This systematic review (PROSPERO: CRD42024499281) aimed explore the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying LC and potential treatable traits across symptom‐based phenotypes. We included studies with primary data, written in English, focusing on omics analyses human samples patients persistent at least 3 months. Our search PubMed Embase, conducted January 8, 2024, identified 642 studies, 29 met inclusion criteria after full‐text assessment. The risk bias was evaluated using Joanna Briggs Institute appraisal tool. synthesis including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, metagenomics, revealed common findings associated fatigue, cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurological, gastrointestinal Key mitochondrial dysfunction, dysregulated microRNAs pulmonary tissue impairment, blood–brain barrier disruption, coagulopathy, vascular microbiome disturbances, microbial‐derived metabolite production inflammation. Limitations include cross‐study heterogeneity variability sampling methods. emphasizes complexity need further longitudinal omics‐integrated advance development biomarkers targeted treatments.

Aim To identify elucidate that predispose diagnosed with develop local pulmonary (complicated pneumonia) our Egyptian community. Methods One-hundred pediatric cases CAP were involved case–control study, where classified into 2 groups depending on absence (41 cases) or presence (59 Data demographics, medical history, physical examination, laboratory radiological findings collected analyzed.

COVID-19 has caused millions of deaths around the world. The respiratory system is main target this disease, but it also been reported to attack central nervous system, creating a neuroinflammatory environment with release proinflammatory cytokines. There are several studies suggesting possible relationship between Alzheimer’s disease and COVID-19. Therefore, in study, machine learning microarray analysis was performed identify key genes that may be associated disease. dataset identified as GSE177477, containing 47 samples. A bioconductor oligo package RStudio (version 4.3.3) used process normalize data. Subsequently, one-way ANOVA obtain differentially expressed genes.

Decreased has limit (immune deficiency), which can cause opportunistic infections, tumors other problems. In addition, myocarditis neurological problems should not be ignored. this paper, we guess that virus invasion cells result interaction proteins on membrane.
