  Initial Cluster of Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Infections in Wuhan, China Is Consistent with Substantial Human-to-Human Transmission

summary:
  The clinical summary of the earliest cases of 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) infections in Wuhan, China was recently published [1] , showing the majority of cases were exposed to the Huanan seafood market, which also had wild animals, suggesting the possibility of zoonotic transmission in the market. First, Figure 1A shows the epidemic curve of cases in Wuhan, distinguishing case generations by color.

  The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible association among sestamibi uptake and the main histopathological characteristics of parathyroid lesions related to aggressiveness such as the proliferation index (Ki67 expression and mitosis), angiogenesis (number of vessels), and vascular invasion in hyperparathyroidism patients. To investigate the possible association between sestamibi uptake and cells proliferation in parathyroid lesions, linear regression analyses were performed ( Figure 2 ).

Low sample size and class imbalance resulting from low ICU transfer rates are major limitations to this version of the model, which resulted in low precision.

summary:
  Since early 1980s, pulmonary rehabilitation has been acknowledged as a comprehensive intervention with hundreds of studies being performed over the past thirty years demonstrating its benefits on multiple outcomes; nevertheless, there are still multiple unresolved challenges, and new ones are currently emerging, with the COVID-19 outbreak now in the spotlight. In this editorial, these issues are summarized and discussed, while presenting some of the latest findings in research and clinical practice, with the ultimate goal of raising awareness of the future of pulmonary rehabilitation in the post COVID-19 era.

summary:
  Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) assessments were carried out using the Short Form-36 (SF-36) questionnaire and the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ) at baseline and end-of-study, both validated in CR patients. Although both their mental and physical status improve, CR patients still feel different when compared to healthy subjects after following a CR program.

Ischemic stroke patients mostly received thrombolytic therapy.

The authors then venture into reporting existing Chinese case reports to support their hypothesis that smoking could increase the risk of COVID-19 via upregulation of ACE-2 expression, a known cellular entry gateway for SARS-CoV-2 [2] .
