Novel Coronavirus

Since the Spanish flu in 1918, there has not been such a large-scale pandemic, causing significant damage to the economy of Russia and other countries, as the novel coronavirus infection COVID-19, which began in December 2019. The SARS-CoV-2 virus is highly infectious and can proceed both asymptomatic and in an extremely severe form, especially in the presence of comorbidity. Despite the fact that the clinical picture is associated with respiratory syndrome, long-term neurological symptoms are increasingly observed. In this study, we tried to find out the most pronounced and long-lasting neurological symptoms in the first 6 months after the novel coronavirus infection COVID-19. An important role in the rehabilitation process of this group of patients is played by the strategy of neurocytoprotection, which is aimed at preventing and reducing neuronal damage by affecting the cellular mechanisms of neuroregeneration and cerebral reorganization, which leads not only to structural and metabolic, but also to functional recovery.

The Impact

In December 2019, a unique coronavirus infection, SARS-CoV-2, was first identified in the province of Wuhan in China. Since then, it spread rapidly all over the world and has been responsible for a large number of morbidity and mortality among humans. According to a latest study, Diabetes mellitus, heart diseases, Hypertension etc. are being considered important risk factors for the development of this infection and is also associated with unfavorable outcomes in these patients. There is little evidence concerning the trail back of these patients possibly because of a small number of participants and people who experienced primary composite outcomes (such as admission in the ICU, usage of machine-driven ventilation or even fatality of these patients). Until now, there are no academic findings that have proven independent prognostic value of diabetes on death in the novel Coronavirus patients. However, there are several conjectures linking Diabetes with the impact as well as progression of COVID-19 in these patients. The aim of this review is to acknowledge about the association amongst Diabetes and the novel Coronavirus and the result of the infection in such patients.

Minimum Ratio

In a large-scale epidemic, such as the novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19), there is huge demand for a variety of medical supplies, such as medical masks, ventilators, and sickbeds. Resources from civilian medical services are often not sufficient for fully satisfying all of these demands. Resources from military medical services, which are normally reserved for military use, can be an effective supplement to these demands. In this paper, we formulate a problem of integrated civilian-military scheduling of medical supplies for epidemic prevention and control, the aim of which is to simultaneously maximize the overall satisfaction rate of the medical supplies and minimize the total scheduling cost, while keeping a minimum ratio of medical supplies reservation for military use. We propose a multi-objective water wave optimization (WWO) algorithm in order to efficiently solve this problem. Computational results on a set of problem instances constructed based on real COVID-19 data demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A review article is based on current foreign sources. The level of cytokines in the peripheral blood can be increased in many diseases, but in some cases there may be an excess of their normal concentration in tens, hundreds or more times with the development of a peculiar clinical picture, which is based on a systemic inflammatory reaction. In the literature this condition has received the figurative name «cytokine storm», which highlights an extremely violent reaction of the immune system with an unknown (often unfavorable) outcome. Close attention of the scientific world and the public to the problem of extremely high levels of cytokines in the peripheral blood (hypercytokinemia) was drawn due to the high frequency of the cytokine storm in the novel coronavirus infection.

The novel coronavirus infection (SARS-CoV-2), which first appeared in Wuhan, China in December 2019, has been declared a global pandemic by WHO. COVID-19 affects people of all age groups. The disease in children is usually asymptomatic or mild compared to adults, and with a significantly lower death rates. Data on kidney damage in children with COVID-19, as well as the effect of coronavirus infection on the course of diseases of the genitourinary system, are limited, the risks of contracting a new coronavirus infection in children with significant health problems, including those with chronic kidney disease, remain uncertain. The pandemic has affected the activities of surgeons treating diseases of the urinary system in children. Since the prospects for the end of the pandemic are vague, it is necessary to formulate criteria for selecting patients who can and should be provided with routine care in the pandemic. The purpose of this review is to highlight the features of the clinical manifestations and treatment of children with COVID-19, occurring against the background of previous renal pathology or complicating its course.

Гиперкоагуляционный характер коагулопатии, ассоциированной с новой коронавирусной инфекцией COVID-19, и высокий риск связанных с этим тромботических осложнений — хорошо известный факт на сегодняшний день. Тем не менее в литературе имеются описания и геморрагических событий у больных COVID. В обзоре приведен анализ публикаций, описывающих кровотечения при коронавирусной инфекции; общая частота их в среднем составляет 4–8%. Превалируют желудочно-кишечные кровотечения, существенную часть составляют межмышечные гематомы и кровоизлияния в кожу и слизистые. Показана предиктивная роль применения антикоагулянтов в терапевтических дозах и гипофибриногенемии. Отмечено отсутствие четкого понимания патофизиологических механизмов. Hypercoagulable character of coagulopathy associated with the novel coronavirus infection COVID-19, and the high risk of associated thrombotic complications is a well-known fact. However, there are also case reports of hemorrhagic events in COVID patients in the literature. The review summarizes the publications describing bleedings in coronavirus infection; their overall frequency is on average 4–8%. Gastrointestinal bleeding are prevalent, intermuscular hematomas and hemorrhages in the skin and mucous membranes are frequent. The predictive role of anticoagulants use in therapeutic doses and hypofibrinogenemia is shown. The absence of clear understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms is noted.

Changes in work of the clinical expert department of the Khabarovsk branch of the S. Fyodorov Eye Microsurgery Federal State Institution (the Khabarovsk branch) in the context of a pandemic of the novel coronavirus disease were analyzed in the article. The difficulties that have appeared in all sections of the work performed are described, both medical and expert: the time for checking the quality of filling out medical documentation has increased due to the identification of a larger number of defects; the time for medical control and discharge of patients from the hospital has increased due to the impossibility of accumulating patients in one place and the need to maintain social distance; difficulties arose in working with experts from insurance companies due to the lack of direct communication (medical records are checked outside the Khabarovsk branch). The concern of people about the possibility of carrying out surgical treatment in conditions of coronavirus infection was expressed in an increase in the information load of the «Question - Answer» section on the website of the Khabarovsk branch and, accordingly, on the doctors in the clinical expert department working with it. Key words: pandemic, COVID-19, SARSCoV-2, anti-epidemic measures, personal protective equipment, social distance, treatment control, medical documentation, medical and economic expertise.
