An outbreak of severe Kawasaki-like disease at the Italian epicentre of the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic: an observational cohort study.

TL;DR: Children diagnosed after the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic began showed evidence of immune response to the virus, were older, had a higher rate of cardiac involvement, and features of MAS, and a similar outbreak of Kawasaki-like disease is expected in countries involved in the SEMS epidemic.

Clinical Characteristics of COVID-19 Patients With Digestive Symptoms in Hubei, China: A Descriptive, Cross-Sectional, Multicenter Study.

TL;DR: It is found that digestive symptoms are common in patients with COVID-19 and that the index of suspicion may need to be raised earlier in at-risk patients presenting with digestive symptoms, but further large sample studies are needed to confirm these findings.

A pneumonia outbreak associated with a new coronavirus of probable bat origin

TL;DR: Identification and characterization of a new coronavirus (2019-nCoV), which caused an epidemic of acute respiratory syndrome in humans in Wuhan, China, and it is shown that this virus belongs to the species of SARSr-CoV, indicates that the virus is related to a bat coronav virus.

First Case of 2019 Novel Coronavirus in the United States.

TL;DR: This case highlights the importance of close coordination between clinicians and public health authorities at the local, state, and federal levels, as well as the need for rapid dissemination of clinical information related to the care of patients with this emerging infection.

Structural basis for the recognition of SARS-CoV-2 by full-length human ACE2.

TL;DR: Cryo–electron microscopy structures of full-length human ACE2 in the presence of the neutral amino acid transporter B0AT1 with or without the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the surface spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2 are presented, providing important insights into the molecular basis for coronavirus recognition and infection.
