Background: Treating hypoxemia while meeting the soaring demands of oxygen can be a challenge during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Objective: To determine the efficacy of the surgical facemask and the double-trunk mask on top of the low-flow oxygen nasal cannula on arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO) in hypoxemic COVID-19 patients.
Design: Randomized controlled trial.
Background: The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on functional exercise capacity seemed quickly clinically evident. The objective of this study was to assess the functional exercise capacity of patients with severe COVID-19 and to evaluate the effect of a telerehabilitation program in the specific context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Method: Patients hospitalized for severe or critical COVID-19 were recruited.

Aims: We performed a systematic review of clinical trials investigating the health benefits of physical activity in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes.
Methods: To perform this systematic review, search strategies were created and adapted to four databases. Only randomized controlled trials written in English before 1998 and that answered to the PICOS criteria were included.
