Objective: We aimed to analyze clinical, radiological, and laboratory differences between vaccinated and unvaccinated patients admitted to hospital due to coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia.
Methods: Patients hospitalized in the COVID-19 clinic between February 2022 and August 2022 were included in the study. Demographic, clinical features, and treatment results.
Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a pandemic caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus in 2019. Although the real-time reverse tr-anscription PCR test for viral nucleic acids is the gold standard for COVID-19 diagnosis, computed tomography (CT) has grown in importance.
Aim: To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of thoracic CT findings of COVID-19 pneumonia according to age groups.
Purpose: Lung cancer is associated with high level of symptoms and patient-reported symptoms have been rarely used as a prognostic score to predict patients survival.
Methods: Frequency and burden of symptoms in lung cancer patients were evaluated before the diagnosis with the Memorial Symptom Assessment-Short Form (MSAS-SF) and Condensed Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale (CMSAS) questionnaires. Performance status, stage of disease, serum albumin, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were recorded.
