Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the genetic factors linked to severe COVID-19, specifically focusing on hospitalized cases in admixed Americans.
- Researchers conducted the largest genome-wide association study (GWAS) for COVID-19 hospitalization in this population, identifying four significant genetic associations, including two novel loci found in Latin Americans.
- The findings highlight the importance of including diverse populations in genomic research, aiming to improve understanding of genetic risks associated with COVID-19 across different ethnic groups.
Introduction And Objectives: Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is an emerging treatment alternative for mitral valve (MV) disease in patients who were ineligible for surgical intervention or edge-to-edge repair. This study aimed to assess the short- and mid-term outcomes of this procedure.
Methods: We conducted a prospective registry to include the initial experience with symptomatic, consecutive patients who underwent TMVR using the transapical Tendyne system at 7 centers in the Iberian Peninsula.
Objectives: Extended septal myectomy and alcohol septal ablation are 2 invasive treatments for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Our goal was to compare which of these techniques achieved a higher reduction in gradients, improvement in New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class and reduction in medical treatment.
Methods: It is a single-centre observational and retrospective analysis.
Background: The contribution of the virus to the pathogenesis of severe COVID-19 is still unclear. We aimed to evaluate associations between viral RNA load in plasma and host response, complications, and deaths in critically ill patients with COVID-19.
Methods: We did a prospective cohort study across 23 hospitals in Spain.
Background: Fibromyalgia is a disease that affects mostly women and is related to stressors. The aim of this study was to assess how the Coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has affected women with fibromyalgia.
Methods: A systematic review was conducted in the PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Springer Link databases, following the recommendations of the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses statement.
