Background: The SARS-CoV-2 virus's frequent mutations have made disease control with vaccines and antiviral drugs difficult; as a result, there is a need for more effective coronavirus drugs. Therefore, detecting the expression of various diagnostic biomarkers, including ncRNA in SARS-CoV2, implies new therapeutic strategies for the disease.
Aim: Our study aimed to measure NEAT-1, miR-374b-5p, and IL6 in the serum of COVID-19 patients, demonstrating the correlation between target genes to explore the possible relationship between them.

Introduction: While the general immune response to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is well-understood, the long-term effects of Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1/Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus-2 (HIV-1/SARS-CoV-2) co-infection on the immune system remain unclear. This study investigates the immune response in people with HIV-1 (PWH) co-infected with SARS-CoV-2 to understand its long-term health consequences.
Methods: A retrospective longitudinal study of PWH with suppressed viral load and SARS-CoV-2 infection was conducted.

Objective: Studies on the effects of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on pregnant mothers and their newborns, specifically in relation to their micronutrient status, fatty acids (FAs), and inflammatory status are sparse. We hypothesized that COVID-19 infection would adversely affect the transfer of nutrients, and FAs from mothers to their fetuses via the umbilical cord and maternal-fetal distribution of inflammatory cells. This study aimed to determine the effect of COVID-19 on micronutrients, inflammatory markers, and FAs profiles in pregnant mothers and their newborns' cord blood.

This report aimed to analyze the potential effects of cytokines and neutrophils-to-lymphocytes ratio (NLR) on the occurrence of febrile seizures (FS) in children during the epidemic of novel coronavirus and influenza virus. Between July 2022 and April 2023, clinical data of 422 children with FS hospitalized in the Pediatrics, Shaoxing People's Hospital and the First Affiliated Hospital of Shaoxing University, during the epidemic and non-epidemic periods of novel coronavirus and influenza virus were analyzed. By comparing the various clinical characteristics of children with FS at different periods, comparison of variations in peripheral blood cell count, neutrophils, lymphocytes, hypersensitive C-creation protein, NLR, and inflammatory cytokines.

Background: There are currently seven coronaviruses that can infect humans and the latest addition to these viruses is the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Infection by SARS-CoV-2 is known commonly as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Aside from common manifestations of cough and fever, neurologic symptoms such as headache, disturbed consciousness, paresthesia, and seizures have also been seen.
