Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX.
Background: As more plastic surgery clinicians pursue advanced degrees and strive to become stronger physician-scientists, an objective understanding of how such degrees influence careers becomes important. We hypothesized that having a master's degree is associated with higher scholarly activity, research funding, academic progression, and leadership appointments.
Methods: Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education-accredited integrated plastic surgery residency program Web sites were queried to create a data set of current academic plastic surgeons (APSs) and plastic surgery residents (PSRs).
Mortality and Severity in COVID-19 Patients on ACEIs and ARBs-A Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis, and Meta-Regression Analysis.

Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, United States.
Article Synopsis
- - The review aimed to evaluate whether the use of ACE inhibitors (ACEIs) and Angiotensin-II receptor blockers (ARBs) affected mortality and disease severity in COVID-19 patients.
- - A comprehensive search led to the inclusion of 53 studies for mortality analysis and 43 for severity, revealing no significant impact on either outcome when patients were on ACEIs/ARBs.
- - Additionally, meta-regression showed that demographic factors, such as age and existing heart disease, explained some variations in study results, but the medications did not correlate with mortality or severity.
