Overview: Systemic Inflammatory Response Derived From Lung Injury Caused by SARS-CoV-2 Infection Explains Severe Outcomes in COVID-19

TL;DR: The combination of acute lung injury with RAS-KKS unbalance is herein called COVID-19 Associated Lung Injury (CALI), a conservative two-hit model of systemic inflammation due to the lung injury that allows new intervention windows and is more consistent with the current knowledge.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endothelial Dysfunction in COVID-19: Lessons Learned from Coronaviruses.

TL;DR: Endothelial dysfunction is the common denominator of multiple clinical aspects of severe COVID-19 infection that have been problematic for treating physicians, and better understanding of the pathophysiology could significantly affect management of patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paracentral acute middle maculopathy and acute macular neuroretinopathy following SARS-CoV-2 infection.

TL;DR: COVID-19 has been reported in association with acute limb ischaemia, stroke and the so called “paediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome temporally associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection” and PAMM and AMN have similar underlying pathophysiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

COVID-19: Complement, Coagulation, and Collateral Damage.

TL;DR: A summary of CO VID-19 is provided and complement’s role in COVID-19 acute respiratory distress syndrome and coagulopathy is reviewed, suggesting that the complement system plays a key role in this inflammatory reaction.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large artery ischaemic stroke in severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS).

TL;DR: It is believed that increased vigilance against stroke and other thrombotic complications among critically-ill SARS patients in future outbreaks is needed, especially if treatment such as intravenous immunoglobulin, that increases pro-thrombosis tendency, is contemplated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Erythropoietin as candidate for supportive treatment of severe COVID-19.

TL;DR: Evidence that supports the use of human recombinant erythropoietin (EPO) for ameliorating course and outcome of seriously ill COVID-19 patients is recap here and the research design for a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial including severely affected patients is planned to start shortly.
Journal ArticleDOI

Revisiting the Protein C Pathway: An Opportunity for Adjunctive Intervention in COVID-19?

TL;DR: The objective of this study was to establish a baseline for the evaluation of the Recombinant Human Activated Protein C Worldwide Evaluation in Severe Sepsis.

COVID-19-associated pulmonary and cerebral thromboembolic disease

TL;DR: A case of a 79-year-old woman that presented with stroke and was found to have COVID-19 pneumonia and concomitant large burden pulmonary arterial clot is reported.
