Article Synopsis
- Recent trials indicate that early coronary angiography (CAG) doesn't improve survival outcomes compared to delayed CAG in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) without ST elevation, although the effects on specific subgroups are still uncertain.
- An analysis of 1,512 patients from five trials showed no significant difference in overall death rates between early and delayed CAG strategies, regardless of factors like age and prior heart issues.
- Interestingly, women appeared to have higher odds of death with early CAG, suggesting that gender may influence outcomes in this context.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the presence of antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 virus in healthcare workers versus a general patient population in an Austrian medical center.
- It involved testing 812 healthcare workers and 8451 patients over multiple time periods during the pandemic to measure the seroprevalence of the antibodies.
- Results showed similar rates of antibodies (around 12%) in both groups, indicating that healthcare workers and patients had comparable exposure to the virus throughout the pandemic.
