Background: Recent studies reported that CT scan findings could be implicated in the diagnosis and evaluation of COVID-19 patients.

Objective: To identify the role of High-Resolution Computed Tomography chest and summarize characteristics of chest CT imaging for the diagnosis and evaluation of SARS-CoV-2 patients.

Methodology: Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct, Research Gate and Medscape were searched up to 31 January 2020 to find relevant articles which highlighted the importance of thoracic computed tomography in the diagnosis as well as the assessment of SARS-CoV-2 infected patients.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigated the relationship between acute kidney injury (AKI) and its causes in newborns at a specialized hospital in Multan, involving 101 patients from June 2016 to June 2017.
  • - Findings indicated that a majority of the newborns were boys, with common issues like delayed crying, dehydration, and sepsis contributing to AKI, along with a notable neonatal mortality rate of 14.9%.
  • - The research concluded that AKI in newborns leads to significant health complications, with asphyxia and sepsis identified as major causes, and emphasized higher occurrence in boys compared to girls.

The human HIRA gene was identified as a putative transcriptional regulator mapping within the DiGeorge syndrome critical region at 22q11. HIRA-related proteins have been described in a number of species, but functional information concerning family members is only available in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, where the Hir1p and Hir2p proteins are known to be transcriptional corepressors. In order to analyse conservation of HIRA-related genes and to provide resources for functional studies in another model organism we have isolated the HIRA gene from Drosophila melanogaster (dhira).
