Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has become a global health crisis, eliciting varying severity in infected individuals. This study aimed to explore the immune profiles between moderate and severe COVID-19 patients experiencing a cytokine storm and their association with mortality. This study highlights the role of PD-1/PD-L1 and the TIGIT/CD226/CD155/CD112 pathways in COVID-19 patients.

Background: Despite the immense impact of Long COVID on public health and those affected, its aetiology remains poorly understood. Findings suggest that psychological factors such as depression contribute to symptom persistence alongside pathophysiological mechanisms, but knowledge of their relative importance is limited. This study aimed to synthesise the current evidence on psychological factors potentially associated with Long COVID and condition-relevant outcomes like quality of life.

Introduction: Persistent elevation of biomarkers associated with endothelial dysfunction in convalescent COVID-19 patients has been linked to an increased risk of long-term cardiovascular complications, including long COVID syndrome. Sulodexide, known for its vascular endothelial affinity, has demonstrated pleiotropic protective properties. This study aims to evaluate the impact of sulodexide on serum levels of endothelial dysfunction biomarkers in patients during the convalescent phase of COVID-19.

Purpose Of The Review: Mounting evidence indicates that individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) face a heightened risk of severe outcomes upon contracting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Current medications for COVID-19 often carry side effects, necessitating alternative therapies with improved tolerance. This review explores the biological mechanisms rendering COPD patients more susceptible to severe COVID-19 and investigates the potential of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) in mitigating the severity of COVID-19 in COPD patients.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is now known to be caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, has been a public health threat since early 2020 and has affected millions of people worldwide. Many studies have now shown that this virus exhibits a milder infection in children compared to adults. Acute COVID-19 infection, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), and long COVID have been recently well-established in the pediatric population with a myriad of systemic manifestations.
