At the end of 2019, a severe respiratory syndrome named COVID-19 is started to be transmitted in the world and it has rapidly spread to a global pandemic. Every day, a series of data are collected for real-time monitoring of the development of this pandemic. The data validation and the verification are becoming very important to manage the pandemic and give recommendations to the people. Nevertheless, sometimes, it is not possible to guarantee the truthfulness of such data and some information may be lost during collection. Due to its characteristics, the Blockchain technology can become an important support to face the COVID-19 pandemic. In this regard, the aim of this research is to propose a literature review to understand how the blockchain technology has been used for health care and supply chain management to guarantee an efficient tracing, tracking, and monitoring solution, ensure a transparent and safe data transmission, and to delineate the emerging future research directions.

Increasing evidence suggests that individuals infected with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are at a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2D) compared to those who are not infected. However, the mechanisms underlying this relationship remain poorly understood. In this study, we aimed to systematically evaluate the mediating roles of 3,283 plasma proteins in the link between COVID-19 susceptibility and T2D by conducting proteome-wide Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses.

Nanobodies or variable antigen-binding domains (VH) derived from heavy chain-only antibodies (HcAb) occurring in the Camelidae family offer certain superior physicochemical characteristics like enhanced stability, solubility, and low immunogenicity compared to conventional antibodies. Their efficient antigen-binding capabilities make them a preferred choice for next-generation small biologics. In the present work, we design an anti-SARS-CoV-2 bi-paratopic nanobody drug conjugate by screening a nanobody database.

This study utilized in-depth interviews for examining the impact of the restrictions and lockdown of the COVID-19 pandemic on small church congregations in Nigeria. Thus, it explored ways and means through which small congregations with structural and social limitations dealt with the severe restrictions of the period as well as the impact of these on ministry, social reach and growth. While the pandemic inter alia made the churches creative, it challenged the capacity of members even as it opened-up spaces for "polygamous" worshippers and the unchurched.

Purpose: To determine whether there is a difference in apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and fractional anisotropy (FA) values in white matter pathways in the subacute period after COVID-19 infection and to evaluate the correlation between diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) metrics and laboratory findings.
Material And Methods: The study included 64 healthy controls and 91 patients. Patients were classified as group 1 (all patients, n = 91), group 2 (outpatients, n = 58), or group 3 (inpatients, n = 33).
