SARS-CoV-2 infection: The role of cytokines in COVID-19 disease.

TL;DR: This study reviews published data on alterations in the expression of different cytokines in patients with COVID-19 who require admission to an intensive care unit to support the design of more effective approaches to the management of CO VID-19.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global, regional, and national estimates of the population at increased risk of severe COVID-19 due to underlying health conditions in 2020: a modelling study.

TL;DR: These estimates provide a starting point for considering the number of individuals that might need to be shielded or vaccinated as the global pandemic unfolds, and focus on underlying conditions rather than other risk factors such as ethnicity, socioeconomic deprivation, and obesity.

Age-specific mortality and immunity patterns of SARS-CoV-2.

TL;DR: The relative risk of COVID-19-associated death for younger individuals (under 65) is consistent across countries and can be used to robustly compare the underlying number of infections in each country, and the age distribution of deaths in younger age groups is very consistent across different settings.
Journal ArticleDOI

The procoagulant pattern of patients with COVID-19 acute respiratory distress syndrome.

TL;DR: Few observations exist with respect to the pro‐coagulant profile of patients with COVID‐19 acute respiratory distress syndrome and reports of thromboembolic complications are scarce but suggestive for a clinical relevance of the problem.

Myocardial localization of coronavirus in COVID-19 cardiogenic shock.

TL;DR: This is the first case of acute cardiac injury directly linked to myocardial localization of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) in a 69‐year‐old patient with flu‐like symptoms rapidly degenerating into respiratory distress, hypotension, and cardiogenic shock.

A Novel Coronavirus from Patients with Pneumonia in China, 2019.

TL;DR: Human airway epithelial cells were used to isolate a novel coronavirus, named 2019-nCoV, which formed a clade within the subgenus sarbecovirus, Orthocoronavirinae subfamily, which is the seventh member of the family of coronaviruses that infect humans.

Clinical Characteristics of 138 Hospitalized Patients With 2019 Novel Coronavirus-Infected Pneumonia in Wuhan, China.

TL;DR: The epidemiological and clinical characteristics of novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV)-infected pneumonia in Wuhan, China, and hospital-associated transmission as the presumed mechanism of infection for affected health professionals and hospitalized patients are described.

Epidemiological and clinical characteristics of 99 cases of 2019 novel coronavirus pneumonia in Wuhan, China: a descriptive study

TL;DR: Characteristics of patients who died were in line with the MuLBSTA score, an early warning model for predicting mortality in viral pneumonia, and further investigation is needed to explore the applicability of the Mu LBSTA scores in predicting the risk of mortality in 2019-nCoV infection.
