CONCLUSION: There was a major decline on the number of surgical and diagnostic procedures due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite a slight recovery of elective surgeries throughout the pandemic, many time-sensitive surgeries and diagnostic procedures
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Mortality prediction by the m4C score remained robust to surge strain, making it attractive for when triage is most needed. However, score performance has deteriorated in recent waves. CSC guidelines relying on defined
CONCLUSIONS: Significantly declining rates of timely vaccination were observed during the COVID-19 Surging Period, which lasted two months, but not during the nearly three-year-long COVID-19 Low Epidemic Period. An upward trend in vaccination
CONCLUSIONS: Costs reduced with no apparent negative implication on recovery rates after implementing the COVID CMAM protocol adaptations with a strong negative correlation between cost and program size. This suggests that investing in capacity
New potential for healthcare has been made possible by the development of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) with deep learning. This is applied for a broad range of applications. Normal medical devices together with sensors can gather important
CONCLUSIONS: The results of the EPIC program will provide data to describe the impact of the health crisis on KP and CHWs and identify their emerging needs. Documentation of innovative solutions that were put into place in this context may help
The premise of health as a human right in Latin America has been challenged by health system fragmentation, quality gaps, a growing burden of chronic disease, sociopolitical upheaval, and the COVID-19 pandemic. We characterised inequities in health
As a broad-spectrum antiviral, and especially as a popular drug for treating coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) today, arbidol often involves drug-drug interactions (DDI) when treating critical patients. This study established a rapid and effective
The COVID-19 pandemic has fostered major advances in vaccination technologies^(1-4); however, there are urgent needs for vaccines that induce mucosal immune responses and for single-dose, non-invasive administration^(4-6). Here we develop an
