Objective To determine the risk factors of mortality (in terms of age, sex, and comorbidities) among hospitalized patients in an Indian tertiary care hospital during the first and second waves. Patients and methods A retrospective observational study was conducted, where the patients’ mortality data were collected over two coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) periods, and their characteristics were compared. The first phase was from May 2020 to January 2021 and the second wave was from March 2021 to August 2021. Results A mortality rate of 23.84% (874 deaths among 3666 patients) and 1.36% (232 deaths among 17 000 patients) was noted …

Context: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) with severe respiratory morbidity and mortality , rapidly spread all over the world, caused by an sever acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) varying from mild symptoms to pulmonary fibrosis( Li Z et al.,2020). Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can have a critical role, by promoting the pulmonary parenchyma regeneration and subsequently decreasing the symptoms of COVID-19 and help immune system to act against the virus (WHO, 2020).Aim: to evaluate the efficacy and safety of using stem cell in the treatment of COVID-19patients.Setting and design: We performed this case control study during the period from November 2020 …

Objectives (a) To determine the correlation of platelet count and aggregation with sepsis severity and (b) to find the risk factors affecting the platelet aggregation in sepsis. Patients and methods The present observational cross-sectional study was conducted on 30 patients of sepsis over a period of 18 months. All patients underwent complete blood counts, and platelet aggregation to ADP. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to assess the association of Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score and aggregation to ADP and platelet. Linear regression was done to determine the risk factors affecting platelet aggregation in sepsis. A P value of less …
