Male sex identified by global COVID-19 meta-analysis as a risk factor for death and ITU admission.

TL;DR: A meta-analysis of 3,111,714 reported global cases shows that, whilst there is no difference in the proportion of males and females with confirmed COVID-19, male patients have almost three times the odds of requiring intensive treatment unit (ITU) admission and higher odds of death compared to females.

COVID-19 and diabetes mellitus: from pathophysiology to clinical management.

TL;DR: Evidence suggests that insulin and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors can be used safely in patients with diabetes mellitus and COVID-19; metformin and sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors might need to be withdrawn in patients at high risk of severe disease.

Clinical course and risk factors for mortality of adult inpatients with COVID-19 in Wuhan, China: a retrospective cohort study.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors used univariable and multivariable logistic regression methods to explore the risk factors associated with in-hospital death, including older age, high SOFA score and d-dimer greater than 1 μg/mL.

Abnormal coagulation parameters are associated with poor prognosis in patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia.

TL;DR: In the recent outbreak of novel coronavirus infection in Wuhan, China, significantly abnormal coagulation parameters in severe novel coronvirus pneumonia (NCP) cases were a concern.

Inflammatory cytokines in the BAL of patients with ARDS. Persistent elevation over time predicts poor outcome.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the relationship between degree and duration of lung inflammation and progression of fibroproliferation in non-resolving acute respiratory distress disorder (ARDS), and found that an unfavorable outcome is associated with an initial, exaggerated, pulmonaiy inflammatory response that persists unabated over time.

H5N1 and 1918 pandemic influenza virus infection results in early and excessive infiltration of macrophages and neutrophils in the lungs of mice.

TL;DR: Investigation of the cellular immune response to infection in the mouse lung by flow cytometry shows that infection with HP influenza viruses such as H5N1 and the 1918 pandemic virus leads to a rapid cell recruitment of macrophages and neutrophils into the lungs, suggesting that these cells play a role in acute lung inflammation associated with HP virus infection.
