| 32758869 | Thus we leverage docking analysis (HEX and Z-DOCK) between viral S protein and epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR), vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFR) and hepatocyte growth factor receptors (HGFR/c-MET) to investigate the oncogenic potential of COVID-19. |
| 32759894 | We did not find any studies that met our inclusion criteria, and hence there is no evidence to support or refute the use of vitamin C in the treatment of patients with COVID-19. |
| 32761248 | The study was of cross-sectional design, comprising a mixed-methods, English language, anonymous, online survey posted from April 09 to April 21 to social media. […] Deductive coding grouped themes from each question into meta-themes related to cognitive stress and coping theory. […] Data saturation was achieved with all open-text questions, with 33 broad themes identified and four meta-themes linked to components of the cognitive stress and coping theory. […] This goal can be met proactively by setting up transparent processes for COVID-19 eventualities and signposting to information and coping resources. |
| 32763182 | Through social media and our reviewer networks, we met some early-career stem cell investigators impacted by the closures. |
| 32763496 | We performed random-effects pairwise meta-analyses for proportions and relative risks, I2, T2, and Cochrane Q, sensitivity analyses, and assessed publication bias. 148 studies met the inclusion criteria for the systematic review and meta-analysis with 12’149 patients (5’739 female) and a median age of 47.0 [35.0-64.6] years. 617 patients died from COVID-19 and its complication. 297 patients were reported as asymptomatic.

| 32766538 | From 29/02 to 10/03 611 patients with a suspected diagnosis of COVID-19 infection were evaluated in our ED; 320 (52%) met the criteria for hospital admission and 99 (31%) needed to be immediately started on ventilatory support (81% CPAP, 7% NIPPV, 12% Invasive Mechanical Ventilation). |
| 32766542 | Seven deaths were reported (0·09%) and 11 children (0·14%) met inclusion for multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children. |
| 32768693 | Patients who died had more severe sepsis and respiratory failure and met COVID-CS laboratory criteria longer (median = 3 days) compared to those extubated/never intubated (median = 1 day). |
| 32768807 | Our results revealed that, although an overall median compliance rate of 94.6% for 39 criteria, only four of 89 labs met all of them. […] Criteria in personnel training and protection have been most satisfactorily met, followed by lab environmental disinfection, emergency plans and accident handling. |
| 32768975 | Both groups met the discharge criteria after a similar length of hospitalization. |

| 32770832 | Residents of nursing homes that met COVID-19 reporting requirements. |
| 32771632 | Among 10,237 patients (mean [SD] age, 45.0 [19.8] years; 60.1% female) who met the eligibility criteria for the study, 6,350 (62.0%) patients were asymptomatic, and 3,887(38.0%) patients were symptomatic. |
| 32772069 | The efficacy and safety of methylprednisolone in mechanically ventilated patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome due to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are unclear. […] In this study, we evaluated the association between use of methylprednisolone and key clinical outcomes. […] Clinical outcomes associated with the use of methylprednisolone were assessed in an unmatched, case-control study; a subset of patients also underwent propensity-score matching. […] A total of 117 patients met inclusion criteria. […] Groups were similar except for hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin use, which were more common in patients who did not receive methylprednisolone. […] Mean ventilator free-days were significantly higher in patients treated with methylprednisolone (6.21±7.45 versus 3.14±6.22; P = 0.044). […] The probability of extubation was also increased in patients receiving methylprednisolone (45% versus 21%; P = 0.021), and there were no significant differences in mortality (19% versus 36%; P = 0.087). […] In a multivariable linear regression analysis, only methylprednisolone use was associated with higher number of ventilator-free days (P = 0.045). […] Methylprednisolone was associated with increased ventilator-free days and higher probability of extubation in a propensity-score matched cohort. […] Randomized, controlled studies are needed to further define methylprednisolone use in patients with COVID-19. |
| 32773853 | DOPS included 16 point score, in which 23 trainees (88.4%) met the expectations and above expectations as per training objectives. |
| 32775778 | Patient characteristics and metrics describing the extent of lung irradiation were tabulated. […] For the study, 107 patients met the inclusion criteria. |

| 32785570 | The aim of this study was to perform a structured systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the diagnostic characteristics of serological-based COVID-19 testing. […] Five studies (n=1,166 individual tests) met inclusion criteria. […] This meta-analysis demonstrates suboptimal sensitivity and specificity of serologic-based diagnostic testing for SARS-CoV-2 and suggests that antibody testing alone, in its current form, is unlikely to be an adequate solution to the difficulties posed by COVID-19 and in guiding future policy decisions regarding social distancing and reopening of the economy worldwide. |
| 32789449 | All key steps of the registry development best practices framework were met, though with the need for adaptation in some areas. |
| 32790662 | According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which regulates alcohol-based hand sanitizers as an over-the-counter drug, methanol (methyl alcohol) is not an acceptable ingredient. […] On June 30, 2020, CDC received notification from public health partners in Arizona and New Mexico of cases of methanol poisoning associated with ingestion of alcohol-based hand sanitizers. […] The case reports followed an FDA consumer alert issued on June 19, 2020, warning about specific hand sanitizers that contain methanol. […] Whereas early clinical effects of methanol and ethanol poisoning are similar (e.g., headache, blurred vision, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, loss of coordination, and decreased level of consciousness), persons with methanol poisoning might develop severe anion-gap metabolic acidosis, seizures, and blindness. […] If left untreated methanol poisoning can be fatal (5). […] Survivors of methanol poisoning might have permanent visual impairment, including complete vision loss; data suggest that vision loss results from the direct toxic effect of formate, a toxic anion metabolite of methanol, on the optic nerve (6). […] CDC and state partners established a case definition of alcohol-based hand sanitizer-associated methanol poisoning and reviewed 62 poison center call records from May 1 through June 30, 2020, to characterize reported cases. […] During this period, 15 adult patients met the case definition, including persons who were American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN). […] Persons should never ingest alcohol-based hand sanitizer, avoid use of specific imported products found to contain methanol, and continue to monitor FDA guidance (7). […] Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for methanol poisoning when evaluating adult or pediatric patients with reported swallowing of an alcohol-based hand sanitizer product or with symptoms, signs, and laboratory findings (e.g., elevated anion-gap metabolic acidosis) compatible with methanol poisoning. […] Treatment of methanol poisoning includes supportive care, correction of acidosis, administration of an alcohol dehydrogenase inhibitor (e.g., fomepizole), and frequently, hemodialysis. |
| 32790663 | MIS-C patients who met the case definition had been reported to CDC. |
| 32790918 | None of the patients met HLH-2004 diagnostic criteria. |

| 32795424 | We present herein the results of an interim analysis of 316 patients enrolled at Houston Methodist hospitals from March 28 to July 6, 2020. […] Of the 316 transfused patients, 136 met a 28-day outcome and were matched to 251 non-transfused control COVID-19 patients. |
| 32795898 | The methodology met the criteria of a novel, promising approach to treat successfully elderly COVID-19 patients, particularly when hospitalized in intensive care units (ICUs) Experimental design: We investigated the therapeutic effect of 4 cycles of O2-O3 in 50 hospitalized COVID-19 subjects suffering from acute respiratory disease syndrome (ARDS), aged more than 60 years, all males and undergoing non invasive mechanical ventilation in ICUs. […] It leads patients to a fast recovery from ARDS via the improvement of major respiratory indexes and blood gas parameters, following a relatively short time of dispensed forced ventilation (about one to two weeks). […] This study may encourage the scientific community to further investigate and evaluate the proposed method for the treatment of COVID-19 patients. |
| 32798142 | Thus, evaluating the effectiveness of existing vaccines like Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) has attracted attention. […] Nine studies met the inclusion criteria. |
| 32804431 | Nine additional patients either met the definition of suspect case or presented with at least two of the most common symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infection. |
| 32805143 | Among 1,117 ARDS patients who met inclusion criteria, the median Crs was 30 [interquartile range, 23-40] ml/cmH2O. 136 (12%) patients had preserved Crs (≥50 ml/cmH2O, “phenotype L”) and 827 (74%) patients had poor Crs (<40 ml/cmH2O, “phenotype H”). |
| 32810855 | However, on an individual-respondent level, 10% experienced a clinically significant increase in psychopathological symptoms and 15% met cut-off criteria for COVID-19-related traumatic distress. |
| 32811228 | We used a mixed-methods study design to evaluate the conversion of a large foundational interprofessional course, at our university, to an asynchronous online learning environment. […] The COVID-19 discussion board presented evidence that students met all Interprofessional Education Collaborative core competencies for IPCP, shared knowledge of their and other health professions, and expressed the value and essentiality of IPCP. |
| 32811325 | These are mainly met by overtime and additional effort, especially on the part of leaders. |
| 32811328 | The increased need for care brought on by the pandemic was able to be met by the knowledge provided in the nursing phone consultations. |
| 32812051 | Sixty-two subjects met the inclusion criteria, with 35 enrolled in the sofosbuvir/daclatasvir arm and 27 in the ribavirin arm. |
| 32812187 | In fact, this systematic review-meta-analysis was directly pertained to estimation at the efficient value of some clinical managements to confront the COVID-19 infection. […] A random-effects model meta-analysis was performed to calculate the relative risk (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). […] A number of 45 articles met the eligibility criteria (out of 6793 articles). |
| 32816230 | The following outcomes were considered: sample origin (animal versus human); detection method; anatomical location and cell types. […] Of the 24 identified studies, 17 met our inclusion criteria. […] There was an important heterogeneity between studies in the methods used to detect ACE2 and TMPRSS2, leading to a potential identification bias. |
| 32817606 | No counties met hotspot criteria during January 22-March 7, 2020. […] During March 8-July 15, 2020, 818 counties met hotspot criteria for ≥1 day; these counties included 80% of the U.S. population. |
| 32820086 | All respondents met with their supervisor within the first month of the placement and 90.7% of the trainees found it easy to meet with their supervisor. |
| 32821909 | Nine studies with 975 patients met our inclusion criteria. […] Productivity outcomes included reports of cost-effectiveness, savings on transport, and improved waiting list metrics. |
| 32824596 | After adjusting for important age-related risk factors, the isolated effect of age was estimated using meta-regression. […] Twelve studies met our inclusion criteria: four studies for COVID-19 disease severity, seven for mortality, and one for admission to ICU. |
| 32825892 | A group of senior doctors with vast clinical experience met on 19th July’20 under the aegis of Academy of Advanced Medical Education. |
| 32826620 | : Methadone regulations have changed minimally since 1974, despite advances in the understanding of the nature of opioid use disorder (OUD) and the role of medications in its treatment. […] Take home medications are not allowed unless rigid and formulaic conditions are met. […] Although addiction medicine has rejected the “criminal” paradigm in favor of OUD as a treatable medical disorder, methadone regulations have not kept pace with the science.Pregnancy is characterized by an ultra-rapid metabolic state, but regulations prevent the use of daily divided doses of methadone to maintain stability. […] Interference with dose regimen adjustments prevents optimal outcomes.Further, methadone clinics are mostly urban, leaving patients in rural areas without access. […] Pregnant women (and parents with children) were forced to negotiate dosing in dangerous conditions.A revised methadone system must provide treatment that is local, flexible, and limited in size to manage viral contagion risks. |
| 32827525 | Forty-nine children (26%) were diagnosed with acute SARS-CoV-2 infection; an additional 18 children (9%) met the criteria for MIS-C. |
| 32831142 | We parameterize the model by using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method and estimate the control reproduction number (Rc), as well as the effective daily reproduction ratio- Re(t), of the disease transmission in the mainland of China excluding Hubei province. […] If all the above conditions are met, the outbreak is expected to be ended by April in the mainland of China apart from Hubei province. |
| 32832308 | Materials and methods A postal survey was administered to all patients who had received at least one telemedicine session during the months January to May 2020 for the management of hyperthyroidism. […] The telemedicine service was time saving and met their needs. |
| 32833297 | There were 52 (1.6% of all ED presentations) patients who met inclusion criteria during the SOE period and 57 (1.0%) patients in the comparator period. |
| 32834595 | However, the prediction may deviate particularly for longer dates, as assumptions of model cannot be met always in a real scenario. […] In view of this, a real time application (COV-IND Predictor) has been developed which automatically syncs the latest data from the national COVID19 dash board on daily basis and updates the model input parameters and predictions instantaneously. |
| 32835299 | This study aims to examine compliance with basic methodological quality criteria and open scientific research practices on the mental health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. […] Most of them met the requirements related to reporting key methodological and statistical information. |
| 32837253 | Users may only be willing to disclose their locations when some condition is met, for instance in proximity of a disaster area or an event of interest. […] We also propose an heuristic that brings down the computational overhead through enlarging an alert zone by a small factor (given as system parameter), therefore trading off a small and controlled amount of privacy for significant performance gains. |
| 32837361 | These criteria are met by many of the legislator trades. […] Our results help to both parameterize concerns about this case of legislator trading; as well as provide insight into the reactions and expectations of investors toward COVID-19. |
| 32837434 | The main objective of this study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the Spanish-translated version of the Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCV-19S) using a sample of population in Peru. […] Data were collected by a convenience sampling method, resulting in a total of 832 participants, and the collection took place over 1 week, April 17-23, 2020. […] Invariance between healthcare workers and age groups was reached (ΔCFI < 0.01), but the invariance between men and women was not met (ΔCFI = 0.02). […] The study found the Spanish-translated version of the FCV-19S has good psychometric properties and presents evidence of validity and reliability. |
| 32837660 | In the past twenty years, the growing demand for food has increasingly been met through the destruction of Earth’s natural environment, and much less through progress in agricultural productivity generated by scientific research, as was the case during the two previous decades. |
| 32837730 | The reported results were controversial, so the objective of the present study was to assess the relationship between different blood groups and the onset and mortality of COVID-19 infection using a meta-analysis method. […] We screened articles on the bases of titles, abstracts and full text, and articles that met the inclusion criteria were selected. […] This meta-analysis showed that individuals with blood group A are at higher risk for COVID-19 infection while those with blood group O are at lower risk. |
| 32837748 | Due to the huge mask demand-supply gap all over the world, the development of user-friendly technologies and methods is urgently needed to effectively extend the service time of masks. […] Used masks were soaked in hot water at a temperature greater than 56 °C for 30 min, based on a recommended method to kill COVID-19 virus by the National Health Commission of the People’s Republic of China. […] The masks were then dried using an ordinary household hair dryer to recharge the masks with electrostatic charge to recover their filtration function (the so-called “hot water decontamination + charge regeneration” method). […] The filtration efficiencies of the regenerated masks were almost maintained and met the requirements of the respective standards. […] The performance evolution of masks during human wear was further studied, and a company (Zhejiang Runtu Co., Ltd.) applied this method to enable their workers to extend the use of masks. […] Furthermore, a new method for detection of faulty masks based on the penetrant inspection of fluorescent nanoparticles was established, which may provide scientific guidance and technical methods for the future development of reusable masks, structural optimization, and the formulation of comprehensive performance evaluation standards. |
| 32837905 | After screening, 15 articles that met the inclusion criteria were finally included. […] However, this result was not reliable due to low methodological quality and irrational outcomes. |
| 32838062 | Total physical activity before and during COVID-19 lockdown period were 7809.7 (3849.7-11769.8) MET-min/week and 4135.7 (867.2-7404.1) MET-min/week; p < 0.0001. |
| 32838090 | To allow for all these requirements to be met for under $1000, the Cerberus - an open source three-headed self-replicating rapid prototyper (RepRap) was designed and tested with the following capabilities: i) 200 °C-capable heated bed, ii) 500 °C-capable hot end, iii) isolated heated chamber with 1 kW space heater core and iv) mains voltage chamber and bed heating for rapid start. |

[…] Solutions during the pandemic for the first two areas focus on the varying service provision models that include 1) face-to-face care with personal protective equipment (PPE) and social distancing and 2) provision of care via remote methods, with a focus on telehealth. |
| 32847947 | Of the 445 patients with COVID-19, 104 met our inclusion criteria. |
| 32848328 | The surge in demand for digital medical solutions has been accelerated by the need for new diagnostic and therapeutic methods in the current coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. […] Despite the great potential associated with the application of MHAs and MAs in gastroenterology and health care in general, there are numerous challenges to be met in the future, including both the ethical and legal aspects of applying this technology. |
| 32851596 | The purpose of this short communication is to describe the ethical aspects of this type of testing, RESULTS: Deliberate infection of volunteers with a dangerous virus such as SARS-CoV-2 was initially considered unethical by researchers; but the current pandemic is so different from previous ones that these studies are considered ethical if certain criteria are met. |
| 32852868 | Cardiac monitoring is recommended for at risk patients; however, the availability of telemetry capable hospital beds is limited. […] We sought to evaluate a patch-based mobile telemetry system for inpatient cardiac monitoring during the pandemic. […] A prospective cohort study was performed of inpatients hospitalized during the pandemic who had mobile telemetry devices placed; patients were studied up until the time of discharge or death. […] Other clinical outcomes and performance characteristics of the mobile telemetry system were studied. […] Eighty-two patients underwent mobile telemetry device placement, of which 31 (37.8%) met the primary outcome, which consisted of 24 (29.3%) with new arrhythmias detected and 18 (22.2%) with management changes.

| 33040198 | The tRNAs carrying the initiation Methionine (iMet) recognize the start codon termed initiation ATG (iATG). […] Other normal Met-carrying tRNAs recognize the internal ATGs. […] In the human genome, the abundance of iMet-tRNAs to Met-tRNAs is five times higher than the iATG to ATG ratio. […] However, when SARS-CoV-2 infects human cells, the iMet has an 8.5-time enrichment to iATG. […] We collected 58 virus species and found that the enrichment of iMet is higher in all viruses compared to human. […] Our study indicates that the genome sequences of viruses like SARS-CoV-2 have the advantage of competing for the iMet-tRNAs with host mRNAs. […] The capture of iMet-tRNAs allows the fast translation initiation and the reproduction of virus itself, which compensates the lower tAI of viral genes. |

| 33558073 | The purpose of this pandemic disaster practice improvement project was to measure changes in pulse oximetry associated with prone positioning of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 infection in adult acute respiratory distress or adult respiratory distress syndrome, who are awake, alert, spontaneously breathing, and nonintubated. […] A retrospective chart review of patients who were coronavirus disease 2019 positive in the emergency department from March 30, 2020 to April 30, 2020 was conducted for patients with a room air pulse oximetry <90% and a preprone position pulse oximetry ≤94% who tolerated prone positioning for at least 30 minutes. […] The primary outcome was the change in pulse oximetry associated with prone positioning, measured on room air, with supplemental oxygen, and approximately 30 minutes after initiating prone positioning. […] Of the 440 patients with coronavirus disease 2019, 31 met inclusion criteria. […] Median pulse oximetry increased as 83% (interquartile range, 75%-86%) on room air, 90% (interquartile range, 89%-93%) with supplemental oxygen, and 96% (interquartile range, 94%-98%) with prone positioning (z = -4.48, P < .001). […] In patients with coronavirus disease 2019 who are awake, alert, and spontaneously breathing, an initially low pulse oximetry reading improved with prone positioning. |

| 33560344 | Metformin, the most commonly prescribed glucose-lowering agent, has been proposed to influence susceptibility to and outcomes of COVID-19 via multiple mechanisms. […] We investigated whether, in patients with diabetes, metformin is associated with susceptibility to COVID-19 and its outcomes. […] Adults with type 2 diabetes patients and a current prescription for metformin and other glucose lowering agents (MF+) were compared to those with a current prescription for glucose-lowering agents that did not include metformin (MF-). […] There were 29,558 and 10,271 patients in the MF+ and MF- groups respectively who met the inclusion criteria. […] Current prescription of metformin was not associated with the risk of COVID-19 or COVID-19 related mortality. […] It is safe to continue prescribing metformin to improve glycaemic control in patients with diabetes, despite concerns about an impending second wave of COVID-19. |
| 33560530 | Two authors independently screened the titles and abstracts, assessed full-texts to select the studies that met the inclusion criteria, extracted data, and appraised the risk of bias of each included systematic review. […] Our search yielded 1132 references. 52 systematic reviews met inclusion criteria and were included in this overview. |
| 33560545 | 11/146(7.5%) patients met BSTI criteria for COVID-19 in 2020 compared with 0/14 in 2019(p=0.008). 3/39 patients tested had detectable COVID-19 antibodies (2 with parenchymal changes and 1 with normal parenchyma) however 0/6 patients whose CTPA met BSTI criteria “likely/suspicious for COVID-19” and attended antibody testing were SARS-CoV-2 antibody positive CONCLUSIONS: 32.8% ambulatory patients with suspected PE in 2020 had parenchymal changes with 7.5% diagnosed as COVID-19 infection by imaging criteria, despite absence of other COVID-19 symptoms. |
| 33564474 | Baseline factors that are associated with hospital mortality were identified via semiparametric and parametric survival analyses.
