TL;DR: Mortality associated with COVID-19 was higher in this study compared to the previous reports from China, with males having significantly higher mortality compared to females and the mortality was significantly higher among the hospitalized male group.

TL;DR: A significant association between alterations in intestinal microbial composition and T1D is showed; however, in some articles, it is not clear which one happens first; therefore, investigation of altered gut microbiota can help in the early detection of T1d before seropositivity.

TL;DR: COVID-19 commonly presented with a progressive course of cough and fever with more than half of hospitalized patients showing leukopenia or a high CRP on their laboratory findings, and mortality associated with COVID19 was higher than that reported in studies in China.

TL;DR: Development of ARDS may play a role in estimating disease progression and mortality risk and early detection of elevations in serum CRP, combined with a clinical COVID-19 symptom presentation may be used as a surrogate marker for the presence and severity of the disease.

TL;DR: A large‐scale meta‐analysis was used to establish prevalence rates for loss of olfaction and gustation in COVID‐19 positive patients and demonstrated high rates of taste and smell disorders in patients with confirmed COVID–19.
