Introduction: Lung cancer, one of the leading causes of death due to neoplasms, requires prompt diagnosis and immediate treatment. The COVID-19 pandemic affected healthcare systems worldwide, having adverse effects on all aspects, particularly on the fate of patients with suspected neoplastic diseases. Limited access to healthcare, disruptions in regular operations (reassigning roles to some wards), postponed hospital admissions, prolonged diagnostic processes, and other factors have collectively led to the phenomenon known as COVID-19 debt.

Background: To investigate the risk factors associated with benign central airway stenosis following COVID-19 infection.
Methods: The clinical data of 235 patients hospitalized for COVID-19 infection at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 2022 to October 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Based on the occurrence of postoperative central airway stenosis, the patients were categorized into a stenosis group (118 cases) and a control group (117 cases).

Background: Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is already being adopted for the surveillance of health conditions of communities and shows great potential for the monitoring of infectious pathogens of public health importance. There is however paucity of robust data to support extensive WBE in Nigeria. This study evaluated the prevalence of clinically relevant infectious pathogens and provided antimicrobial resistance profiles of bacteria pathogens in wastewater canals in Lagos State at a single point in time.

This report explores the potential of novel 6-aryloxy-2-aminopyrimidine-benzonitrile scaffolds as promising anti-infective agents in the face of the increasing threat of infectious diseases. Starting from 2-amino-4,6-dichloropyrimidine, a series of 24 compounds inspired from the antiviral drugs dapivirine, etravirine, and rilpivirine were designed and synthesized via a two-step reaction sequence in good yields. Biological testing of synthetic analogs revealed potent inhibition against both viral and tuberculosis targets.
