Epidemiology of COVID-19: A systematic review and meta-analysis of clinical characteristics, risk factors, and outcomes

Jie Li et al.

Summary: COVID-19 presents with a variety of clinical features and outcomes, with an average age of 46.7 years, 51.8% of patients being male, 22.9% having severe disease, and a mortality rate of 5.6%. Severity of the disease is associated with factors such as age, gender, and comorbidities, which also increase the risk of mortality.

Susceptibility of rabbits to SARS-CoV-2

Anna Z. Mykytyn et al.

Summary: The susceptibility of rabbits to SARS-CoV-2 is a potential public health concern as they can excrete infectious virus from the nose and throat. Therefore, investigations on the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in farmed rabbits should be considered.

Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in domestic cats imposes a narrow bottleneck

Katarina M. Braun et al.

Summary: The evolution of SARS-CoV-2 in mammalian hosts is influenced by genetic variation and selection mechanisms. Using domestic cats as a model, it was found that within-host genetic variation is mainly driven by genetic drift and purifying selection, with transmission involving a narrow bottleneck. A notable variant in Spike (H655Y) was identified, showing rapid emergence and transmission, possibly under positive selection, underscoring the importance of continued genomic surveillance for emerging adaptations.

Florence Fenollar et al.

Summary: Mink, small carnivores of the Mustelidae family, have been widely bred for their fur. Outbreaks of SARS-CoV-2 have been reported in mink farms in multiple countries, raising concerns about their potential role in the pandemic and the impact of mutant viruses on various aspects of the disease.

Human ACE2 receptor polymorphisms and altered susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2

Kushal Suryamohan et al.

Summary: This study analyzed genetic data and identified ACE2 variants that can potentially alter host susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2. Specific ACE2 variants were predicted to either increase susceptibility or provide protection against the virus by altering the interaction between the virus and host cells. Further biochemical assays confirmed the effects of these ACE2 variants on the affinity for the viral spike protein, suggesting that these genetic variations can modulate susceptibility to COVID-19.

Comprehensive characterization of N- and O-glycosylation of SARS-CoV-2 human receptor angiotensin converting enzyme 2

Asif Shajahan et al.

Summary: The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has led to the development of new therapeutic strategies, with a focus on understanding the viral attachment, entry, and replication mechanisms. Analysis of glycomic and glycoproteomic profiles of human angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (hACE2) provides insight into viral binding and entry, aiding in the development of novel therapeutics. Studying the site-specific glycosylation of hACE2 and its role in virus-receptor interactions is crucial for understanding the complications of COVID-19 patients with different demographics and pre-existing conditions.
