Article Abstract

Our study aimed to assess the severity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection in hospitalized infants under 40 days old, across 21 Belgian hospitals between 2020 and 2022. Of the 365 infants studied, 14.2% needed respiratory support. The median hospital stay was 3 days (interquartile range, 2-4), and there were no deaths. Infection severity was similar during the Omicron and Alpha/Delta periods.

While outcomes are generally favorable, postoperative management remains variable, particularly regarding routine Intensive-Care Units (ICU) admission. Given increasing pressure on critical care resources, identifying patients who truly require ICU-level monitoring is essential.

Objectives: To quantify the incidence of adverse events given COVID-19 vaccination and COVID-19 diagnosis in women of reproductive age; to examine pregnancy as a potential risk modifier.

Methods: An exposure-matched cohort study of >1 million women, 11 December 2020-30 September 2022, United States. COVID-19 vaccination, COVID-19 diagnoses, and medically-attended adverse events - including immunologic, neurologic, cerebrovascular, thromboembolic, cardiovascular, respiratory, thrombocytopenic and coagulative events - were identified from inpatient and outpatient medical claims.

The northern South China Sea (SCS) shelf and southern Taiwan Strait (TS) are dynamic marginal seas influenced by both freshwater discharge from the Pearl River and seasonal coastal upwelling. These interacting hydrological forces shape ecological gradients that affect marine planktonic communities. Planktonic foraminiferal assemblages were analyzed from plankton tow and surface sediment samples collected during three cruises (2018, 2020, and 2022) along a ∼1000 km transect extending from the Pearl River estuary to the southern TS.
