Chasing the storm: Recruiting non-hospitalized patients for a multi-site randomized controlled trial in the United States during the COVID-19 pandemic

Kelly Hu et al.

Summary: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are crucial for evaluating clinical interventions, but inadequate recruitment can be a major challenge, especially during a pandemic. Strategies such as transparency, education, financial incentives, and partnerships with testing sites can help improve recruitment rates.

Population Immunity and Covid-19 Severity with Omicron Variant in South Africa

Shabir A. Madhi et al.

Summary: The Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 spread more rapidly in South Africa, where two thirds of unvaccinated residents were found to have past infections. Omicron peaked just 1 month after being detected, with hospitalizations and deaths not increasing proportionately with the rise in cases. It remains unclear whether this change is due to widespread preexisting immunity or unique features of the virus.

Effect of early treatment with fluvoxamine on risk of emergency care and hospitalisation among patients with COVID-19: the TOGETHER randomised, platform clinical trial

Gilmar Reis et al.

Summary: Treatment with fluvoxamine (100 mg twice daily for 10 days) among high-risk outpatients with early diagnosed COVID-19 reduced the need for hospitalisation defined as retention in a COVID-19 emergency setting or transfer to a tertiary hospital. The trial showed a higher probability of superiority (99.8%) surpassing the prespecified threshold of 97.6%.

Post-COVID-19 Symptom Burden: What is Long-COVID and How Should We Manage It?

Dominic L. Sykes et al.

Summary: Recent studies have shown that COVID-19 patients may experience lasting symptoms, with females being more likely to report residual symptoms. The phenomenon of Long-COVID may not be solely attributed to the impact of SARS-CoV-2, indicating a potential role of biopsychosocial effects of COVID-19 in its etiology.
