Background: () is one of the most common pathogens of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in children. Although pneumonia (MPP) is considered a self-limiting disease, severe MPP (SMPP) occurs in some cases. This study aims to analyze clinical features of MPP and to explore predictive indicators in the early stage of infection.

Azithromycin (AM) is one of the prescribed drugs in pandemic medication treatment which has paid great attention. We developed in this study a simply modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) to detect AM using poly-threonine (PT). PT or similar polymers are used as carriers to enhance the delivery and effectiveness of AM.

Objective: To identify the early predictors of a self-reported persistence of long COVID syndrome (LCS) at 12 months after hospitalisation and to propose the prognostic model of its development.
Design: A combined cross-sectional and prospective observational study.
Setting: A tertiary care hospital.

The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (dNLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte and platelet ratio (N/LP ratio), aggregate index of systemic inflammation (AISI), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), and systemic inflammation index (SII) have emerged as noteworthy determinants in evaluating the severity and mortality prognosis of inflammatory diseases. In order to predict mortality rate, this study aimed to assess the impact of systemic inflammatory markers on both men and women who were admitted to the hospital due to SARS-CoV-2 infection. The laboratory parameters of the 2007 COVID-19 patients were analyzed in a retrospective study (men = 1145 and women = 862).
