Molecular Medicine

TL;DR: It is proposed that extracellular HMGB1 should be considered as a therapeutic target for COVID-19 because it is plausible that these complexes are specifically removed in the lungs revealed by a 40% reduction ofHMGB1 plasma levels in arterial versus venous blood.

TL;DR: The Global Burden of Disease 2015 Study provides a comprehensive assessment of all-cause and cause-specific mortality for 249 causes in 195 countries and territories from 1980 to 2015, finding several countries in sub-Saharan Africa had very large gains in life expectancy, rebounding from an era of exceedingly high loss of life due to HIV/AIDS.

TL;DR: Mortality data suggest that RSV is an important cause of death in childhood from ALRI, after pneumococcal pneumonia and Haemophilus influenzae type b, and the development of novel prevention and treatment strategies should be accelerated as a priority.
