Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) is associated with a wide range of clinical presentations, from asymptomatic or mildly ill to severe respiratory illness including death. We describe isolation of infectious MERS-CoV from the upper respiratory tract of a mildly ill 27-year-old female in Saudi Arabia 15 days after illness onset.

At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, diagnostic testing was not accessible for mildly ill or asymptomatic individuals. Military operational circumstances exclude the usage of reference laboratory tests. For that reason, at the beginning of the pandemic alternative test methods were needed in order to gain insight into the SARS-CoV-2 status of military personnel.

Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the clinical and metabolic characteristics of mixed features (MFs) in individuals with bipolar disorder (BD), focusing on those experiencing bipolar depression or mania/hypomania.
- The research included 163 inpatients from May 2020 to July 2023, using various scales and diagnostic tools to analyze symptom severity and metabolic conditions.
- Findings revealed that MFs were linked to anxious distress and obesity, with a tendency to occur less in severely ill patients, suggesting these factors could enhance the assessment and management of MFs in BD.

Increased circulating histones correlate with sepsis severity and are a potential therapeutic target. Pre-clinical studies showed benefit with a histone-neutralizing polyanion molecule (STC3141). We aimed to investigate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of STC3141 in critically ill patients with sepsis.
