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

TLDR
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.

Impact of coronavirus disease 2019 on pulmonary function in early convalescence phase.

TL;DR: Impaired diffusing-capacity, lower respiratory muscle strength, and lung imaging abnormalities were detected in more than half of the COVID-19 patients in early convalescence phase and no significant correlation between TSS and pulmonary function parameters was found during follow-up visit.

Difference of coagulation features between severe pneumonia induced by SARS-CoV2 and non-SARS-CoV2.

TL;DR: Patients with severe pneumonia induced by SARS-CoV2 had higher platelet count than those induced by non-SARS- CoV2, and only the former with markedly elevated D-dimer may benefit from anticoagulant treatment.

Association of radiologic findings with mortality of patients infected with 2019 novel coronavirus in Wuhan, China.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the association of radiologic findings with mortality of patients with 2019-nCoV infected pneumonia (NCIP) and proposed a simple CT scoring method was capable to predict mortality.
