CONCLUSION: During the COVID-19 pandemic period, we observed a significant increase in maternal morbidities, exclusive breastfeeding, and NICU admissions in infants born at ≥35 weeks gestation. The increase in NICU admission during the COVID-19
CONCLUSION: Reporting their views before the pandemic, barely more than half of the professionals surveyed saw self-care as fundamentally important to the individuals they served. This changed to 86% as a result of the pandemic. Patient/client
CONCLUSIONS: High leukocyte count, low platelet count, high NLR, high CRP level, and high D-dimer on admission predicted mortality of COVID-19 patients. In addition, CRP was found to be the most dominant predicting factor of mortality in moderate
Most life activities in organisms are regulated through protein complexes, which are mainly controlled via Protein-Protein Interactions (PPIs). Discovering new interactions between proteins and revealing their biological functions are of great
Access to accurate viral genomes is important to downstream data analysis. Third-generation sequencing (TGS) has recently become a popular platform for virus sequencing because of its long read length. However, its per-base error rate, which is
It is well recognized that COVID-19 lockdowns impacted human interactions with natural ecosystems. One example is recreational fishing, which, in developed countries, involves approximately 10% of people. Fishing licence sales and observations at
CONCLUSION: This study examines frontline practitioners' perceptions of occupational risk during the pandemic. It argues two tensions underlie practitioners' risk perceptions. First, like other essential workers, HCPs constituted a unique risk group
The pandemic has significantly affected many countries including the USA, UK, Asia, the Middle East and Africa region, and many other countries. Similarly, it has substantially affected Malaysia, making it crucial to develop efficient and precise
Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) have been disproportionately harmed by the COVID-19 pandemic and may have been more likely to have sacrificed opportunity and activity to avoid potential exposures. Our objective was to describe the experience one
