(Frontiers Media, 2021)
Introduction: Severe lung injury is triggered by both the SARS-CoV-2 infection and the subsequent host-immune response in some COVID-19 patients. Methods: We conducted a randomized, single-center, ...
High-dose methylprednisolone pulses for 3 days vs. low-dose dexamethasone for 10 days in severe, non-critical COVID-19: a retrospective propensity score matched analysis
(MDPI, 2021)
Corticosteroids are largely recommended in patients with severe COVID-19. However, evidence to support high-dose methylprednisolone (MP) pulses is not as robust as that demonstrated for low-dose ...

Genetic screening for TLR7 variants in young and previously healthy men with severe COVID-19
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2021)
Introduction: Loss-of-function TLR7 variants have been recently reported in a small number of males to underlie strong predisposition to severe COVID-19. We aimed to determine the presence of these rare ...
The positive rhinovirus/enterovirus detection and SARS-CoV-2 persistence beyond the acute infection phase: an intra-household surveillance study
(MDPI, 2021)
We aimed to assess the duration of nasopharyngeal severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA persistence in adults self-confined at home after acute infection; and to identify the ...
