TL;DR: In this article, D-dimer was measured using immunofluorescence assay and reported in Fibrinogen Equivalent Unit (μg/ml) and the receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the accuracy of admission Ddimer in predicting mortality, and to calculate the optimal cutoff value, based on which patients were divided into two groups and predictive value of D -dimer for mortality was measured.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors examined the long-term maintenance of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) immunity and the association of disease severity and early immune responses on the maintenance of humoral immunity 12 months post-infection.

TL;DR: Widal test is not sensitive enough for an endemic setting like Nepal and thus should be either replaced with more accurate test like ELISA or follow an alternative diagnostic methodology.

TL;DR: Overall, individuals with HEV IgM positivity had higher levels of alanine aminotransferase than IgM negative subjects, suggesting active acute infection, and HIV-positive subjects living in Kathmandu are at higher risk of acquiring HEV infection as compared to the general population and to HIV- positive subjects living outside KathmandU.
