Eosinopenia and elevated C-reactive protein facilitate triage of COVID-19 patients in fever clinic: a retrospective case-control study.

TL;DR: The combination of eosinopenia and elevated hs-CRP can effectively triage suspected CO VID-19 patients from other patients attending the fever clinic with COVID-19-like initial symptoms, which would be particularly useful for designing triage strategies in an epidemic region having a large number of patients with COvid-19 and other respiratory diseases while limited medical resources for nucleic acid tests and radiographic examination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Open resource of clinical data from patients with pneumonia for the prediction of COVID-19 outcomes via deep learning.

TL;DR: An open resource containing data from 1,521 patients with pneumonia consisting of chest computed tomography images, 130 clinical features and laboratory-confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) clinical status is described.
Posted ContentDOI

A simple laboratory parameter facilitates early identification of COVID-19 patients

TL;DR: It is revealed that eosinopenia may be a potentially more reliable laboratory predictor for SARS-CoV-2 infection than leukocyte counts and lymphopenia recommended by the current guidelines.
Journal ArticleDOI

microRNA-22 downregulation of galectin-9 influences lymphocyte apoptosis and tumor cell proliferation in liver cancer

TL;DR: It is found that Gal-9 expression was markedly upregulated in human liver cancer cells compared with the level in normal hepatocytes and miR-22 was downregulated in liver cancer tissues and cell lines, and it is observed that the Gal- 9/miR- 22 axis may influence lymphocyte apoptosis and tumor cell proliferation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reducing false negatives in COVID-19 testing by using microneedle-based oropharyngeal swabs.

TL;DR: It is believed the designed MN/Ab swabs could serve as a promising tool to improve current sampling efficiency with less "false negatives", contributing to the containment of COVID-19 pandemic.
