Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of respiratory infections in infants and young children. The COVID-19 pandemic significantly disrupted global RSV epidemiology. This study aimed to investigate the impact of the pandemic on RSV epidemiology in northern Taiwan from 2018 to 2023.

Infection with SARS-CoV-2 elevates the expression of cytokines, resulting in a cytokine storm that serves as the primary factor for severe illness and mortality; however, effective markers for predicting disease severity and preventing are lacking. Thus, we investigated the association between serum levels of nerve injury-induced protein 1 (Ninj1), a mediator of plasma membrane rupture, and the extent of lung damage in COVID-19 patients was examined to anticipate the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection. This study included 62 healthy participants and 264 patients with COVID-19.

Background: Major depressive disorder (MDD), anxiety disorders, and self-harm are substantial contributors to the global disease burden, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: We used Global Burden of Diseases Study (GBD) 2021 to estimate global, regional, and national prevalence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for MDD, anxiety disorders, and self-harm from 1990 to 2021. Annual percentage changes were calculated for pre-pandemic (1990-2019) and pandemic (2019-2021) periods.

Infections are increasingly recognised as a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic (VEXAS) syndrome. We conducted a systematic review to characterise the infectious burden of VEXAS syndrome and propose preventive strategies. We included 57 studies (813 patients) showing that infections in patients with VEXAS syndrome were frequent, severe in 40-60% of cases, and fatal in 6-15% of cases.

Objectives: Internationally about 3% of people ≥65 years live in long-term care (LTC) settings. Older people living in nursing homes are more likely to be admitted to hospital. We examined the characteristics and outcomes of stroke patients admitted from LTC nationally and how this changed over the COVID-19 pandemic.
