The clinical impact of implementation of a nutritional treatment protocol in critically ill adults with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Introduction: The critical patient affected by SARS-CoV-2 is at risk of malnutrition. The need to avoid volume overload and manoeuvres that delay reaching nutritional requirements such as pronation make the nutritional approach to these patients complex. To ensure adequate treatment, a nutritional support protocol was developed as a clinical practice guideline adapted to the COVID-19 patient.

Understanding small-scale COVID-19 transmission dynamics with the Granger causality test.

Mobility patterns have been broadly studied and deeply altered due to the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). In this paper, we study small-scale COVID-19 transmission dynamics in the city of Valencia and the potential role of subway stations and healthcare facilities in this transmission. A total of 2,398 adult patients were included in the analysis.

A mechanistic spatio-temporal modeling of COVID-19 data.

Understanding the evolution of an epidemic is essential to implement timely and efficient preventive measures. The availability of epidemiological data at a fine spatio-temporal scale is both novel and highly useful in this regard. Indeed, having geocoded data at the case level opens the door to analyze the spread of the disease on an individual basis, allowing the detection of specific outbreaks or, in general, of some interactions between cases that are not observable if aggregated data are used.
