Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a primary malignant neoplasm exhibiting a high mortality rate. Taxifolin is a naturally occurring flavonoid compound that exhibits a range of pharmacological properties. The effects of taxifolin on HCC remain largely unexplored.

Clinical features and independent predictors for recurrence of positive SARS-CoV-2 RNA: A propensity score-matched analysis.

Patients with COVID-19 may be recurrence positive for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA after being cured and discharged from the hospital. The aim of this study was to explore independent influencing factors as markers for predicting positive SARS-CoV-2 RNA recurrence. The study included 601 COVID-19 patients who were cured and discharged from the Public and Health Clinic Centre of Chengdu from January 2020 to March 2021, and the recurrence positive of patients within 6 weeks after SARS-CoV-2 RNA turned negative was followed up.
