The COVID-19 pandemic has affected healthcare workers and medical students including the restriction of nursing students from clinical practice, which hinders the learning process. This study examined changes in nurses' perceptions concerning nursing students' clinical practice of education during the COVID-19 pandemic.A web-based questionnaire was administered to nurses from two facilities, which comprised pre- and post-pandemic teaching experiences. IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 26.0 (Released 2019; IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA) and KH Coder (KH Coder 3.0, Koichi Higuchi, Tokyo, Japan) were utilized for the data analysis in this study. Among the 119 questionnaires distributed, 53 were analyzed (77.9% valid response rate). Overall, 43 (92.5%), 38 (71.7%), and 44 (83.0%) respondents perceived changes in nursing students' clinical practice, nursing students, and their own teaching practices during the COVID-19 pandemic, respectively.Many nurses perceived reduced patient interaction and shifts in student characteristics during clinical practice. Nurses reacted to these changes by confirming students' understanding and asking more questions. The limited sample size and cross-sectional design suggest the need for further exploration of the construct's concept and model. The findings highlight the importance of supporting nursing educators in adapting their teaching methods to address COVID-19 pandemic challenges.

Background: Butyrate may inhibit SARS-CoV-2 replication and affect the development of COVID-19. However, there have been no systematic comprehensive analyses of the role of butyrate metabolism-related genes (BMRGs) in COVID-19.
Methods: We performed differential expression analysis of BMRGs in the brain, liver and pancreas of COVID-19 patients and controls in GSE157852 and GSE151803.

SARS-CoV-2 is an oral pathogen that infects and replicates in mucosal and salivary epithelial cells, contributing to oral post-acute sequelae COVID-19 (PASC) and other oral and non-oral pathologies. While pre-existing inflammatory oral diseases provides a conducive environment for the virus, acute infection and persistence of SARS-CoV-2 can also results in oral microbiome dysbiosis that further worsens poor oral mucosal health. Indeed, oral PASC includes periodontal diseases, dysgeusia, xerostomia, pharyngitis, oral keratoses, and pulpitis suggesting significant bacterial contributions to SARS-CoV-2 and oral tissue tropism.
