The rates of SARS-CoV-2 infection, hospitalization, and mortality in patients with or without AD are compared.
The investigators’ goal was to determine the role of necroptosis in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
The prevalence of early bacterial identification is up to 3-fold lower in intubated patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia compared with patients with influenza pneumonia.
Investigators assessed the effectiveness of treatment with methylprednisolone vs dexamethasone for hospitalized COVID-19 patients with hypoxia.
Preoperative use of a LAMA with a LABA was associated with significant improvements in lung function compared with use of LAMA alone in patients with lung cancer and COPD.
The USPSTF has released a new, updated recommendation statement on lung cancer screenings with low-dose computed tomography.
Investigators conducted a survey to assess the incidence of COVID-19 in patients with multiple sclerosis as well as the influence of their comorbidities and treatments on outcomes.
The use of digital PCR to measure plasma levels of SARS-CoV-2 RNA (RNAemia) provides greater sensitivity than quantitative PCR in COVID-19.
