Introduction: Many countries have reported persistent and concomitant symptoms of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This study aimed to identify persistent COVID-19 and concomitant symptoms in discharged patients and identify the risk factors for such symptoms.
Methods: This study enrolled patients with COVID-19 who were admitted to the University of Fukui Hospital, Japan, and discharged between April 3, 2020, and August 19, 2021.
Article Synopsis
- Recent advancements in troponin testing have improved early detection of NSTEMI in emergency departments, yet reliance on clinical judgment still occurs and the best strategy remains unclear.
- This study aims to validate and compare the effectiveness of clinical judgment, prediction rules, and high-sensitive troponin strategies in accurately ruling out NSTEMI in 1500 patients in Japan.
- The research is ethics-approved and will assess various diagnostic approaches' sensitivity and reliability over a one-year period starting July 2018.

In the currently performed neutral beam (NB) -heated deuterium plasma experiments, neutrons are mainly produced by a beam-plasma reaction. Therefore, time-resolved measurement of the neutron emission profile can enhance the understanding of the classical and/or anomalous transport of beam ions. To measure radial neutron emission profiles as a function of time, the vertical neutron camera (VNC) capable of operation with a counting rate in the MHz range was newly installed on the Large Helical Device (LHD).

It is critical to diagnose and treat Legionella pneumonia (LP) immediately after infection because of the associated high mortality. The urine antigen test (UAT) is often used for the diagnosis of LP; however, it cannot detect the serogroups of all Legionella species. A detained medical history and several clinical findings such as liver enzyme elevation and hyponatremia are useful in diagnosis.
