Lawson study finds high rate of mortality among those with COVID-19-caused acute renal failure

Lawson Health Research Institute have identified a higher rate of mortality among Ontarians who developed acute kidney injury following a COVID-19 infection severe enough to require a say in intensive care.A new study, published this month in the Clinical Kidney Journal, examined data from the Ontario Renal Network and identified 271 people in 27 renal programs across the province who had contracted COVID-19 during the first two waves of the pandemic and subsequently developed an acute kidney injury requiring renal replacement therapy (AKI-RRT).The 271 patients had all contracted COVID-19 between March 10, 2020 and Jan. 31, 2021 and represented about 10 per cent of the 2,490 COVID-19 ICU admissions in the province during that period.

For some, Saskatchewan’s removal of vaccine, mask mandates cause for celebration

Saskatchewan moves to end COVID-19 public health orders Jennica’s mother, Michelle, says her daughter loves music, lights and sound and the bowling alley allows all her sensory needs to be met.Michelle elected not to have her daughter vaccinated against COVID-19, saying that earlier in her life Jennica had complications from immunizations.When the government of Saskatchewan implemented a province-wide vaccine mandate on Oct. 1 of 2021, that meant Jennica could no longer enter the bowling alley.Michelle tried to get government exemption for her daughter through the province to allow Jennica to continue bowling but was unsuccessful.“Having this has been a very big disruption for her because she doesn’t really understand why she wasn’t able to bowl anymore”, said Michelle.Before the pandemic, Jennica would be at the bowling alley on a daily basis, arriving early in the morning to bowl without large crowds around her.

NIH report details how severe forms of COVID-19 cause lung failure and death

LOS ANGELES - A recent report from the National Institutes of Health published on May 11 details how severe COVID-19 is unlike most respiratory illnesses and why it can cause lung failure and death. The report cites two NIH-funded studies that were both published in the scientific journal Nature. The NIH says these studies provide some of the most detailed analyses of COVID-19 on the human body. Researchers explained how SARS-CoV-2, the disease that causes COVID-19 "unleashes a devastating series of host events in the lungs prior to death." These "events" include irreparable tissue damage and severe inflammation. In both studies, scientists analyzed tissue samples gathered from COVID-19 patients shortly after their deaths.

Returning students could cause COVID-19 infections to double in University towns: New study finds

“Impact of university re-opening on total community COVID-19 burden”, said more than two-thirds of infections attributable to the return of university students occur in the general population, leading to increased COVID-19 hospitalizations and death.Cipriano said the findings are important for making public health decisions and suggests that mass screening and high-frequency testing of students can make a significant difference.While screening the student population frequently may be challenging, the study argues a one-time mass screening event at the end of September would help identify and isolate a large fraction of asymptotic infections in the student population to reduce community infection.“We know a third of cases are asymptomatic

coronavirus can cause heart disease in some patients, even those who had relatively mild symptoms of COVID-19, a new study has found.The study, published in the journal JAMA Cardiology, examined a group of 100 COVID-19 patients. Some were sick enough to have been hospitalized, and some had a mild enough illness that they were discharged and left to recover at home.Around 60 per cent of those patients had evidence of myocardial damage – inflammation of the heart muscle, which can be mild, or eventually increase the risk of serious cardiac problems like heart failure.“This is actually quite scary,” said Dr.

We are still learning about how the virus that causes COVID-19 can affect animals. A small number of pets (cats and dogs) have been confirmed to be infected with the virus that causes COVID-19, mostly after close contact with a person with COVID-19.
