A 6-mRNA host response classifier in whole blood predicts outcomes in COVID-19 and other acute viral infections

Ljubomir Buturovic et al.

Summary: This study developed a blood-based host-gene-expression classifier for predicting the severity of viral infections and validated it in various viral infection settings, including COVID-19. The classifier showed good accuracy and predictive performance in identifying the severity of COVID-19 patients. It has the potential to assist in risk assessment and treatment decisions for COVID-19 and other acute viral infections.

Comparison of Saliva and Nasopharyngeal Swab Nucleic Acid Amplification Testing for Detection of SARS-CoV-2 A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Guillaume Butler-Laporte et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of saliva NAAT for COVID-19 and found that its accuracy is similar to that of nasopharyngeal swab NAAT, especially in ambulatory settings. This suggests the potential for saliva NAAT as an alternative to nasopharyngeal swabs and supports further research in this area.

Sensitivity of SARS-CoV-2 Detection With Nasopharyngeal Swabs

Bianca Clerici et al.

Summary: The study aimed to assess the sensitivity of nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) in COVID-19 patients, with a sensitivity rate of 77% for all NPS evaluated and 79% for the first follow-up swabs. Results showed no significant variations in sensitivity over time, and factors such as time since symptom onset, age, sex, number of comorbidities, and onset symptoms did not significantly impact the sensitivity of the first follow-up NPS. The utility of NPS in the diagnostic algorithm of COVID-19 should be reconsidered based on these findings.

Transcriptomic similarities and differences in host response between SARS-CoV-2 and other viral infections

Simone A. Thair et al.

Summary: The study compared the gene expression changes in COVID-19 patients with non-COVID-19 viral infections and identified 416 genes specific to COVID-19. It also found that in COVID-19, the proportions of CD56(bright) natural killer cells and M2 macrophages increased, providing insights into the pathophysiology of the host response to SARS-CoV-2.

Multi-cohort analysis of host immune response identifies conserved protective and detrimental modules associated with severity across viruses

Hong Zheng et al.

Summary: Viral infections trigger a distinct host response, with severe infections associated with increased hematopoiesis, myelopoiesis, and myeloid-derived suppressor cells. Protective and detrimental gene modules were identified to define different trajectories of outcomes, providing insights for the development of diagnostics and host-directed therapies to improve global pandemic preparedness.

Human nasal wash RNA-Seq reveals distinct cell-specific innate immune responses in influenza versus SARS-CoV-2

Kevin M. Gao et al.

Summary: The study found that macrophages and neutrophils are increased in nasal wash cells of patients infected with COVID-19 and influenza, with an enrichment of specific cell types such as hillock-like epithelial cells, M2-like macrophages, and age-dependent B cells in COVID-19 samples. Compared to influenza, a global decrease in IFN-associated transcripts in neutrophils, macrophages, and epithelial cells was observed in COVID-19 samples.

Impaired local intrinsic immunity to SARS-CoV-2 infection in severe COVID-19

Carly G. K. Ziegler et al.

Summary: Our study reveals the diverse responses of cells in the nasopharyngeal epithelium to SARS-CoV-2 infection, with different gene expression profiles observed in mild, moderate, and severe cases of COVID-19. The identification of specific cell types and associated genes highlights the complexity of the host response to viral infection, and suggests that impaired nasal epithelial anti-viral immunity may contribute to the development of severe COVID-19.
