15. Identification of Potential Inhibitors of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Related Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Main Protease from Non-Natural and Natural Sources: A Molecular Docking Study
So far, there is neither a vaccine nor a specific antiviral drug to prevent or treat COVID-19 (coronavirus disease) infection. Recent studies have been done to investigate the capacity of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease inhibitors be used in the treatment of COVID-19 patients. Some of those drugs have shown to be promising. Natural chemi

18. Saliva is a reliable, non-invasive specimen for SARS-CoV-2 detection
Abstract Background Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the cause of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Although Real Time Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) of respiratory specimens is the gold standard test for detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection, collecting nasopharyngeal swabs causes discomfort to patie

19. COVID-19 - Endothelial Axis and Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Patency: a Target for Therapeutic Intervention?
Abstract It has been reported that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection induces endothelial inflammation, therefore facilitating the progression of endothelial and vascular dysfunction in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) involves mainly the use of the saphenous vein (SV) an

20. Proposal of Research Model for the Detection of COVID-19 among Asymptomatic Carriers
Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a pandemic and rapidly progressing infectious disease that represents a global health care emergency due to severe acute respiratory syndrome. Rapid tests detect antigen or antibody presence, which is useful for patient care and for assisting in disease surveillance and epidemiological research. The complicatin

21. Effect of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Activity of Physicians Working in the Areas of Head and Neck Surgery and Otorhinolaryngology
Abstract Introduction Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an acute infection caused by the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and it is highly transmissible, especially through respiratory droplets. To prepare the health system for the care of these patients also led to a restriction in the activity of several medical specialties. Physicians who work with pati

22. Cardiovascular involvement in COVID-19: not to be missed
Abstract In December 2019, a striking appearance of new cases of viral pneumonia in Wuhan led to the detection of a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV2). By analyzing patients with severe manifestations, it became apparent that 20 to 35% of patients who died had preexisting cardiovascular disease. This finding warrants the important need to discuss the influence of
