ORF8 ∆382 Mutation: A Possible Viral Prognostic Biomarker for the Severity of the COVID-19
Since the initial onset of the current severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic from Wuhan, China in December 2019, the virus is now spread all around the world, and the disease is named COVID-19. Based on the WHO report on April 18, 2021, there are now more than 140 million confirmed cases and three millions deaths due to this disease[1]. The virus pathogenesis, cl...
متن کاملThrombotic events in COVID-19 patients: a case series and literature review
Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has rapidly emerged as a threatening pandemic. Clinical features of this pandemic involve a wide range of manifestations and are not completely known. Here, we present six cases of thrombotic events in patients with COVID-19. Case presentation: In this case series, we present six patients with confirmed COVID-19, according to real-time polymerase...
متن کاملMechanisms responsible for the heterogeneous coronary microvascular response to nitroglycerin.
Nitroglycerin dilates large (greater than or equal to 100 microns) but not small coronary arterial microvessels, and a putative metabolite of nitroglycerin, S-nitroso-L-cysteine, has been shown in vitro to dilate both large and small coronary microvessels. Based on this evidence, we tested the hypothesis that the lack of response of small coronary microvessels was due to an inability of small c...
متن کاملAcute Coronary Syndrome Secondary to Acute Aortic Dissection – Underlying Mechanisms and Possible Therapeutic Options
Acute coronary syndrome(ACS) and acute aortic dissection(AAD) are life-threatening conditions which can be difficult to differentiate in the emergency room because of the similarity of clinical presentations. In addition, ACS can be caused in AAD as a complication of the dissecting process. Usual form of ACS is caused by an obstruction of the epicardial coronary arteries, which is initiated wit...
