Background: Individuals recovering from COVID-19 infection have reported experiencing symptoms of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). These observations have raised concerns about COVID-19 as a significant precipitating factor in the development of post-viral POTS. Given the increasing number of POTS cases reported after COVID-19, we sought to examine the baseline characteristics of POTS patients before and after COVID-19.

Unlabelled: Respiratory epithelial cells can survive direct infection by influenza viruses, and the long-term consequences of that infection have been characterized in a subset of proximal airway cell types. The impact on the cells that survive viral infection in the distal lung epithelia, however, is much less well-characterized. Utilizing a Cre-expressing influenza B virus (IBV) and a lox-stop-lox tdTomato reporter mouse model, we identified that alveolar type 2 (AT2) pneumocytes, a progenitor cell type in the distal lung, can survive viral infection.

Background: SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 are still active in the population. Some patients remained PCR-positive for more than 4 weeks, called "persistently PCR-positive". Recent evidence suggests a link between the gut microbiota and susceptibility to COVID-19, although no studies have explored persistent PCR conditions.
