Emergency Use Request Submitted for Molnupiravir for Mild to Moderate COVID-19
The submission is based on data from the phase 3 MOVe-OUT trial, which evaluated molnupiravir in 775 nonhospitalized adults with mild to moderate COVID-19.
Respiratory Diseases/Disorders
Prevalence and Outcomes of Patients With COVID-19 and Influenza Co-Infection
Researchers conducted a study that compared the prevalence of COVID-19 with influenza co-infection among the general population vs hospitalized patients, as well as outcomes associated with both infections vs COVID-19 alone.
Corticosteroid Responsiveness Assessed in Patients with Chronic Cough
The most common presenting complaints included shortness of breath, rhinorrhea, and hoarseness.
RSV and Parainfluenza Increase Hospitalization Risk in HIV-Exposed Infants
As HIV-exposed, uninfected infants have higher rates of morbidity and mortality than HIV-unexposed uninfected infants, a study was conducted to analyze whether particular infections or immune responses contribute to hospitalization.
Respiratory Virus Detections, Antibiotic Prescribing Rates Decreased During COVID-19 Pandemic
The researchers tested their hypothesis that a decrease in respiratory virus incidence would be associated with a reduction in inappropriate ambulatory antibiotic orders.
Multispecialty Perspectives on Long COVID-19
Experts in infectious disease, pulmonology, cardiology, neurology, and psychiatry share their perspectives on the phenomenon that is long COVID-19.
Fine Particles From Wildfire Smoke Impact Children’s Respiratory Health
Exposure to wildfire-specific airborne fine particles with diameter ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5) is more harmful for children’s respiratory health than exposure to PM2.5 from other sources.
Prenatal, Postnatal Exposure to Fine Particulate Matter Linked to Allergic Rhinitis
Development of allergic rhinitis in children is significantly associated with prenatal and postnatal exposure to fine particulate matter.
FDA Expands Use of Bioelectronic Device ClearUP to Include Sinus Congestion
The bioelectronic device was previously approved for treating sinus pain due to allergic rhinitis.
Nosocomial Influenza Outbreak Investigation Informed by Genomic Analyses
Investigators used precision surveillance by combining genomic sequencing and conventional surveillance to delineate a nosocomial viral outbreak; they believe the findings of their study are applicable to a range of respiratory pathogens, including SARS-CoV-2.
