The relationship between dietary habits, including the consumption of eggs, dairy products, and sugar, and the development of disease is well-established. However, further investigation is required to elucidate the precise associations between these dietary habits and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The objective of this study was to analyze existing genome-wide association studies in order to identify causal relationships between dietary habits and CVD.

Erythrodontium julaceum, Marchantia polymorpha, and Plagiochila bantamensis are widely distributed bryophytes in Vietnam. However, comprehensive chemical and biological data on their composition remain limited. Bio-guided isolation based on severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) M inhibition was applied to these species, resulting in the identification of 23 metabolites.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to compare the performance of different clinical specimens-nasopharyngeal (NP) swabs collected by healthcare professionals (HCP-NP), self-collected nasal swabs (Sc-N), and saliva samples (S)-in diagnostic tests for investigating severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA and influenza A/B RNA.

Methodology: These clinical samples were collected from 404 symptomatic cases and tested with the SARS-CoV-2 and influenza A/B RNA tests on the cobas 6800 System of Roche Molecular Systems (Roche Molecular Systems, Pleasanton, USA). The SARS-CoV-2 or influenza virus infection status was determined for all patients based on the predefined criteria and corresponding algorithms.

Millions of reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) tests have been performed worldwide during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, using various protocols. This study evaluates the duration of SARS-CoV-2 RNA detectability by RT-PCR at body temperature and analyzes changes in cycle threshold (Ct) values over time. Positive nasopharyngeal swabs for SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR ( = 120) with different Ct values were collected from Hospital Universitario 12 de Octubre (Madrid, Spain, 2020).
