| renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockers and region-specific variations in covid-19 outcomes: findings from a systematic review and meta-analysis. | coronavirus disease 2019 (covid-19) has been observed to cause a high mortality in people with cardiometabolic diseases. renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (raas) blockers enhance the expression of ace2, the binding receptor of sars-cov-2, and can enhance viral infectivity. we aim to provide a pooled estimate of the effect of raas blockers on covid-19 outcomes. | 2021 | 34035891 |
| covid-19 outcomes amongst patients with pre-existing cardiovascular disease and hypertension. | coronavirus disease 2019 (covid-19) has multiorgan involvement and its severity varies with the presence of pre-existing risk factors like cardiovascular disease (cvd) and hypertension (htn). therefore, it is important to evaluate their effect on outcomes of covid-19 patients. the objective of this meta-analysis and meta-regression is to evaluate outcomes of covid-19 amongst patients with cvd and htn. | 2021 | 33763316 |
| chest computed tomography scan findings of coronavirus disease 2019 (covid-19) patients: a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis. | numerous cases of pneumonia caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (covid-19) were reported in wuhan, china. chest computed tomography (ct) scan is highly important in the diagnosis and follow-up of lung disease treatment. the present meta-analysis was performed to evaluate chest ct scan findings in covid-19 patients. | 2021 | 33708271 |
| the effect of coagulation factors in 2019 novel coronavirus patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis. | the role of coagulation dysfunction in severe coronavirus disease 2019 (covid-19) is inconsistent. we aimed to explore the impact of coagulation dysfunction amongst patients with covid-19. | 2021 | 33607784 |
| dyslipidemia increases the risk of severe covid-19: a systematic review, meta-analysis, and meta-regression. | this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate whether dyslipidemia affects the mortality and severity of covid-19, we also aimed to evaluate whether other comorbidities influence the association. | 2021 | 33584063 |
| are smoke and aerosols generated during laparoscopic surgery a biohazard? a systematic evidence-based review. | background. laparoscopic surgery generates end products that can have potentially harmful effects for the surgical team from short- or long-time exposure. in view of the current sars-cov-2 circumstances, controversy has risen concerning the safety of surgical smoke (ss) and aerosols and the perception of an increased risk of exposure during laparoscopic surgery. methods. the present qualitative systematic review was conducted according to meta-analyses and systematic reviews of observational stu ... | 2021 | 33573518 |
| exposure to select pathogens in an expanding moose (alces alces) population in north dakota, usa. | forty female moose (alces alces) captured in north dakota, us, in march 2014 were tested for antibodies to a variety of pathogens. antibodies to west nile virus (wnv) were detected in 39 (98%) moose following a year with a high number of human cases, suggesting the population accurately reflects wnv activity. fifteen percent of moose (6/40) had antibodies to borrelia burgdorferi, implying expansion of the tick vector into the area. antibodies to anaplasma spp. were detected in 55% of moose (22/4 ... | 2021 | 33857323 |
| assessing unfiltered beer-based marinades effects on ether and ester linked phosphatidylcholines and phosphatidylethanolamines in grilled beef and moose meat. | ruminant meats contain ester and ether-linked phosphatidylcholines-(pc) and phosphatidylethanolamines-(pe) enriched with ω3 and ω6 polyunsaturated fatty acids-(pufa) essential for human health and nutrition. oxidative degradation of these lipids during grilling compromises meat quality and safety. the effect of marinades containing unfiltered session ales, herbs and spices on these lipids in grilled beef and moose meat was investigated in current study. marination preserved (p < 0.05) ester and ... | 2021 | 32827804 |
