Impact of Corticosteroids in Coronavirus Disease 2019 Outcomes Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Edison J. Cano et al.

Summary: A systematic review of literature on corticosteroids and COVID-19 found evidence of mortality benefit in severely ill COVID-19 patients treated with corticosteroids. However, there were no significant differences in outcomes between high-dose and low-dose corticosteroid regimens. Low-dose corticosteroids do not appear to significantly impact the duration of SARS-CoV-2 viral shedding based on emerging evidence. Further high-quality clinical trials are needed to determine the most beneficial timing and dosing for corticosteroids in the rapidly evolving global pandemic.

Non-invasive ventilation for SARS-CoV-2 acute respiratory failure: a subanalysis from the HOPE COVID-19 registry

Maurizio Bertaina et al.

Summary: The study found that patients treated with NIV for SARS-CoV-2-related ARF had worse clinical and laboratory signs at presentation compared to those receiving other non-invasive oxygen strategies. Despite this, more than half of the patients treated with NIV survived without the need for intubation, suggesting that NIV may be a viable strategy in cases of limited intensive care resources.

First and second waves of coronavirus disease-19: A comparative study in hospitalized patients in Reus, Spain

Simona Iftimie et al.

Summary: Many countries have experienced a two-wave pattern in reported COVID-19 cases in 2020, with the second wave showing characteristics of younger patients, lower hospitalization time, and death rate compared to the first wave. The second wave had more children, pregnant and post-partum women, and different treatment approaches compared to the first wave, indicating potential differences in the impact of the virus between the two periods.
