Aim: To identify predictors of the development of thromboembolic complications (TECs) in patients with severe SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection.
Materials And Methods: A single-center observational retrospective study included 1634 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection. The patients were divided into 2 groups depending on the availability of the feasibility study. The criterion for inclusion of patients in the main group was the presence of venous feasibility studies in 127 patients (group I), the comparison group consisted of 1507 patients in whom the course of COVID-19 was not complicated by the development of feasibility studies (group II).
Results: When performing computed tomography of the chest organs, it was revealed that patients with a feasibility study had a higher percentage of lung tissue damage than patients in the comparison group: 55% [37.5; 67.5] and 37.5% [25.0; 47.5], respectively (p<0.001). The average values of C-reactive protein in I patients group were 129 [60.1; 211] ng/l, which was significantly higher than in II patients group - 41.0 [12.2; 97.6] ng/l (p<0.001), interleukin-6 - 176 [52.9; 471] pg/ml and 39.4 [11.0; 107] pg/ml (p<0.001), respectively. A one-factor regression analysis proved a significant contribution of comorbid pathology to the development of feasibility studies in patients with COVID-19. The presence of three nosologies at the same time: arterial hypertension, coronary heart disease (CHD) and chronic kidney disease increased the probability of a feasibility study by 4.81 times (odds ratio 4.8117, 95% confidence interval 3.2064-7.2207), in patients with arterial hypertension, CHD, chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes - by 5.63 times (odds ratio 5.6321, 95% confidence interval 3.1870-9.9531).
Conclusion: The presence of severe comorbid pathology significantly increased the risk of developing a feasibility study in patients with COVID-19. The most significant predictors of the development of feasibility studies in patients with severe SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection. They are: CHD, arterial hypertension and type 2 diabetes.

Since December 2019, the global dissemination of a novel coronavirus has precipitated a notable public health crisis, prompting considerable interest and scrutiny from governmental and scholarly entities. Substantial research efforts have been dedicated to exploring diverse facets of this novel coronavirus, encompassing its pathogenesis, transmission dynamics, and therapeutic interventions. Recent findings suggest that circular RNAs (circRNAs) exert a pivotal influence on modulating viral infectivity and immune defense mechanisms.

Objectives: To assess the capacity of Medicaid providers to take on new patients during a time of unprecedented growth in program enrollment due to Medicaid expansion and the COVID-19 public health emergency.
Study Design: We conducted a survey of Medicaid providers in Missouri in 2023 about their patient load and capacity to accept new patients.
Methods: We recruited 141 Missouri Medicaid providers through probability sampling and 109 additional providers through convenience sampling for a total sample size of 250, representing 0.

The need for accurate and simultaneous diagnosis of multiple respiratory infectious diseases has become increasingly critical due to ongoing viral mutations and the similarity of symptoms among various viruses. Here, we have advanced our detection capabilities by developing a multiplex lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) platform that integrates oligonucleotides and antibodies, enabling the simultaneous detection of five respiratory viruses: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), Influenza A (FluA), Influenza B (FluB), Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and Adenovirus (ADV), on a single membrane. By applying the oligonucleotide and antibody-conjugated AuNPs, the platform enables highly sensitive and specific detection.

Introduction: Pneumonia is a common symptom of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), and this study aimed to determine how analyzing initial thoracic computerized-tomography (CT) scans using semi-quantitative methods could be used to predict the outcomes for hospitalized patients.
Materials And Methods: This study looked at previously collected data from adult patients who were hospitalized with a positive test for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 and had CT scans of their thorax at the time of presentation. The CT scans were evaluated for the extent of lung involvement using a semi-quantitative scoring system ranging from 0 to 72.

Introduction: Telemedicine is a health service that provides diagnosis, treatment evaluation, preventive medicine by using information and communication technologies between distant locations and aims to improve the health of the individuals and society. Social restrictions were applied during the pandemic process caused by coronavirus disease-2019 due to the virus called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 which emerged in late 2019. Through remote communication and information technologies in the followup of asthma patients, there is a need for studies on the effectiveness of using telemedicine methods was seen.
