CSF Biomarkers in COVID-19 Associated Encephalopathy and Encephalitis Predict Long-Term Outcome

Mar Guasp et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the diagnostic and prognostic role of inflammatory biomarkers in patients with acute COVID-19 and neurological manifestations. Elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines were found in the serum and CSF of neuro-COVID patients. Neuroaxonal damage markers and cytokine levels were associated with disease severity and neurologic disability.

The Importance of Behavioral and Native Factors on COVID-19 Infection and Severity: Insights from a Preliminary Cross-Sectional Study

Hani Amir Aouissi et al.

Summary: This cross-sectional study investigates the relationship between human characteristics and vulnerability/resistance to SARS-CoV-2 using an online questionnaire. The study finds that age, physical activity, and health status are important factors influencing the infection rate, while the acceptance of preventive measures and smoking are associated with the severity of infection. Individual behavior plays a crucial role in the spread of the virus, highlighting the importance of adopting a healthy lifestyle and observing preventive measures to reduce the probability of infection and prevent severe COVID-19.

Summary: This study assessed the relationship between HIV infection and COVID-19 outcomes globally. The findings suggest that HIV infection may increase the severity of COVID-19, particularly in Africa, and increase the risk of death worldwide.

Dima Dandachi et al.

Summary: The study found that people living with HIV have a higher risk of severe outcomes from COVID-19, especially those with older age, chronic lung disease, hypertension, and lower CD4 cell counts. Antiretroviral therapy and viral suppression did not have a significant impact on the outcomes examined.

Risk Factors for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Death in a Population Cohort Study from the Western Cape Province, South Africa

Andrew Boulle et al.

Summary: In South Africa, living with HIV and having current tuberculosis were independently associated with increased COVID-19 mortality. These findings highlight the impact of these two diseases on COVID-19 risk and demonstrate the associations between age, sex, and other comorbidities with COVID-19 mortality.

A meta-analysis of SARS-CoV-2 patients identifies the combinatorial significance of D-dimer, C-reactive protein, lymphocyte, and neutrophil values as a predictor of disease severity

Kunwar Singh et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the significance of multiple laboratory blood values in patients with SARS-CoV-2 and develop COVID-19 predictive equations. The results showed that the generated predictive equations exhibited high specificity, sensitivity, positive predictive values, and negative predictive values in adult and pediatric populations.

Case Fatality Rates for Patients with COVID-19 Requiring Invasive Mechanical Ventilation A Meta-analysis

Zheng Jie Lim et al.

Summary: The study indicates that the case fatality rate of COVID-19 patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation is around 45%, but varying reporting methods result in a wide range of fatality rates across studies. Fatality rates are higher in older patients and in early pandemic epicenters.

Immune deficiency is a risk factor for severe COVID-19 in people living with HIV

Christian Hoffmann et al.

Summary: In people living with HIV, immune deficiency may be a risk factor for severe COVID-19, even with virological suppression. A current CD4+ T cell count below 350/mu l is associated with an increased risk of severe COVID-19, while a low CD4 T cell nadir is associated with mortality. There is no evidence for a protective effect of protease inhibitors or tenofovir alafenamide in this population.

Prioritising 'already-scarce' intensive care unit resources in the midst of COVID-19: a call for regional triage committees in South Africa

Reshania Naidoo et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic in South Africa has led to challenges in clinical decision making due to scarce ICU resources. While national guidelines provide a comprehensive triage framework, ethical and moral dilemmas still exist. Clinicians must consider multiple factors in decision-making, and may need to withdraw ICU care based on medical futility. The proposal for Provincial multi-disciplinary Critical Care Triage Committees aims to alleviate the burden on individual ICU teams and improve pandemic response coordination.

Epidemiology and outcomes of COVID-19 in HIV-infected individuals: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Paddy Ssentongo et al.

Summary: Susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection and mortality risk are higher among people living with HIV/AIDS compared to HIV-negative individuals. The beneficial effects of antiretroviral therapy in reducing infection and mortality risks for COVID-19 in PLWHA remain inconclusive. Prioritizing SARS-CoV-2 vaccination for persons with HIV is recommended to mitigate the increased risk associated with HIV infection.

The association between mechanical ventilator compatible bed occupancy and mortality risk in intensive care patients with COVID-19: a national retrospective cohort study

Harrison Wilde et al.

Summary: This study found an association between ICU occupancy and mortality risk, with higher occupancy of beds compatible with mechanical ventilation associated with increased mortality risk. Further research is needed to determine if this is a causal relationship or reflects strain on other operational factors such as staff. This highlights the importance of strategies to keep ICU occupancy low to mitigate the impact of resource saturation.

Effect of timing of intubation on clinical outcomes of critically ill patients with COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-analysis of non-randomized cohort studies

Eleni Papoutsi et al.

Summary: This study suggests that the timing of intubation may not affect the mortality and morbidity of critically ill patients with COVID-19, supporting a wait-and-see approach which might lead to fewer intubations. Relevant guidelines may therefore need to be updated.

Summary: The study found that the use of high-flow nasal oxygen in adult COVID-19 patients may lead to an increase in ventilator-free days and a reduction in ICU length of stay, compared to early initiation of invasive mechanical ventilation. Further research is needed to confirm these findings.
