Therapeutics for COVID-19

Sima S. Toussi et al.

Summary: This article reviews therapeutics for COVID-19 and their development, including prospects for anticoronavirals. Vaccines and monoclonal antibody treatments were available within a year, but there was still a need for therapeutics for certain patient groups. Investigational therapies showed mixed results, with some reducing viral load or preventing death. Nirmatrelvir-ritonavir and molnupiravir received Emergency Use Authorization in the United States. Immunomodulatory drugs targeting host-driven symptoms are also used. The article highlights the development of COVID-19 therapies and the challenges in developing anticoronavirals.

Tele-medicine versus face-to-face consultation in Endocrine Outpatients Clinic during COVID-19 outbreak: a single-center experience during the lockdown period

F. Ceccato et al.

Summary: The emergency plan tailored for outpatients with endocrine diseases in response to the COVID-19 outbreak in Italy was effective in ensuring continued follow-up care for patients, with 86% of patients contacted receiving a clinical response. The cancellation rate of visits decreased significantly after the implementation of endocrine triage, indicating the plan's usefulness in maintaining continuity of care for outpatients.

Evaluation of stability and inactivation methods of SARS-CoV-2 in context of laboratory settings

Marek Widera et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the ability of commonly used lysis buffers in molecular biological laboratories to inactivate SARS-CoV-2, as well as analyzed viral stability in cell culture media and on display surfaces in a laboratory environment. Various chemical and non-chemical inactivation methods were also assessed, and it was found that certain detergent-containing lysis buffers were effective in inactivating the virus while others were not. Use of additional inactivation steps may be necessary before handling lysed viral samples from BSL-3.

Inactivation of SARS-CoV-2 virus in saliva using a guanidium based transport medium suitable for RT-PCR diagnostic assays

Sukalyani Banik et al.

Summary: The guanidium thiocyanate-based buffer eNAT showed effective inactivation of SARS-CoV-2 virus and stability of viral RNA, making it a valuable medium for transporting and processing clinical samples for RT-PCR detection of SARS-CoV-2.

Low-dose short synacthen test with salivary cortisol in patients with suspected central adrenal insufficiency

Filippo Ceccato et al.

Summary: The low-dose short synacthen test (LDSST) is recommended for patients suspected of central adrenal insufficiency (AI), evaluating salivary cortisol levels before and after administering synacthen. The peak salivary cortisol level of >12.1 nmol/L after the test can indicate an intact HPA axis, helping to avoid unnecessary glucocorticoid replacement treatment.
