Mashup Score: 0Testing guidelines during times of crisis: challenges and limitations of developing rapid and living guidelines - 1 year(s) ago
The start of the COVID-19 pandemic presented a situation in which there was an urgent need for decision-making that relates to diagnosis, but the evidence was lacking, of low certainty or constantly changing. Rapid and living guideline development methods were needed and had to be applied to rigorous guideline approaches, such as the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and…

Mashup Score: 111Detection of viable SARS-CoV-2 in retrospective analysis of aerosol samples collected from hospital rooms of patients with COVID-19 - 1 year(s) ago
Managing the COVID-19 pandemic has required the implementation of public health mitigation measures to limit the transmission of SARS-CoV-2. Airborne transmission via particles of different sizes, generally called droplets and aerosols, was recognized very late by Public Health organizations in part due to limited direct evidence of infectious virus in air samples. SARS-CoV-2 RNA has been…

Mashup Score: 0Zoonotic spill-over of SARS-CoV-2: mink-adapted virus in humans - 1 year(s) ago
This work aimed to analyse possible zoonotic spill-over of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). We report the spill-over of mink-adapted SARS-CoV-2 from farmed mink to humans after adaptation that lasted at least 3 months.

Mashup Score: 2Mass drug administration of azithromycin: an analysis - 2 year(s) ago
The World Health Organization recommends mass drug administration (MDA) of the antibiotic azithromycin for children 1-11 months of age in areas with high infant and child mortality. Notwithstanding the substantial potential benefits in lowering childhood mortality, MDA raises understandable concerns about exacerbating antibiotic resistance.

Emerging infectious diseases are a growing threat, through population growth, increased trade and travel, urbanization, deforestation, and climate change [1]. Clinical research in response to emerging infectious diseases is challenging; selecting and contracting the appropriate study sites for a trial is time consuming, and often too few patients can be timely recruited to acquire high-quality…

Prognostic models are typically developed to estimate the risk that an individual in a particular health state will develop a particular health outcome, to support (shared) decision making. Systematic reviews of prognostic model studies can help identify prognostic models that need to further be validated or are ready to be implemented in healthcare.
