    Abstract A previously healthy 25-year-old Asian male was admitted with acute respiratory failure due to COVID-19 pneumonia to our intensive care unit. He received empiric therapy and higher level of respiratory support via a high flow nasal cannula. Notably, human metapneumovirus was detected from the nasopharyngeal swab by RT-PCR. Six days post-ICU admission, sinusitis was clinically and sonographically detected. SARS-CoV-2 was detected in the fluid aspirated from the antrum. The patient has made an uneventful recovery. Further studies are required to investigate co-infections with SARS-CoV-2 and other viruses.

    Abstract Background: This study addresses the critical issue of high-volume emergency calls in hospitals, focusing on the strain caused by frequent caller patients on ambulance services. The aim was to synthesize various management methods for handling high-frequency hospital calls.
    Methods: The systematic review was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines and guided by the Cochrane Handbook for systematic reviews. Inclusion criteria encompassed studies focusing on the management of emergency departments in hospitals, exploring various medical conditions requiring ambulance attention, and reporting on the impact of a high volume of ambulance calls on hospitals. Databases including PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar were searched from January 1, 2005, to May 1, 2022. The quality of included studies was assessed using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) Checklist.
    Results: Out of 2390 identified citations, 18 studies met the inclusion criteria. These studies, from 12 countries, presented diverse methods categorized into country policy-based management, modeling approaches, and general strategies. Key findings included the effectiveness of risk stratification models and community-based interventions in managing high call frequencies and improving patient care. Our review identified effective strategies such as risk stratification models and community-based interventions, which have shown significant impacts in managing high call frequencies, aligning closely with our objective. These approaches have been pivotal in reducing the burden on emergency services and improving patient care.
    Conclusion: The study synthesizes effective management methods for high-frequency ambulance calls, including predictive modeling and community interventions. It highlights the need for multi-faceted management strategies in different healthcare settings and underscores the importance of continued research and implementation of these methods to improve emergency service efficiency.

    Abstract Lung injury with COVID-19 may be due to a complex underlying pathophysiology. Cytokine release syndrome appears to be a catalyst of different inflammatory pathways promoting lung parenchymal injury and thromboembolic phenomena ("dual hit" injury). Recently, severe neurological manifestations such as acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, which may be not linked to lung pathology, have been identified in COVID-19, contributing thus further to the versatility of its clinical features.

    Abstract The majority of human tumors are characterized by abnormal signaling caused by oncogenic RAS proteins. KRAS is a member of the RAS family and is currently one of the most thoroughly researched targets for cancer treatment due to its prevalence in a variety of deadly malignancies. Targeting the KRAS protein, which plays a crucial role in regulating cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis, shows great potential as a strategy for fighting cancer. Herein, in silico screening of 530 natural compounds against KRAS protein was performed. The top-scoring hits, namely ZINC32502206, ZINC98363763, ZINC85645815, and ZINC98364259 displayed a robust affinity towards KRAS as evidenced by their respective binding affinity values of -10.50, -10.01, -9.80, and -9.70 kcal/mol, respectively which were notably higher than that of the control compound AMG 510 (-9.10 kcal/mol). Through virtual screening and visual inspection, it was observed that these hits effectively interacted with the essential residues located within the active site of KRAS. Based on the findings of this study, it can be inferred that these compounds may have the potential to be employed in the treatment of cancer by targeting KRAS.

    Abstract Immune system and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system dysregulation with associated cytokine release syndrome may be a key feature of early stage of SARS-CoV-2 organotropism and infection. Following viral mediated brain injury, dysregulated neurochemical activity may cause neurogenic stress cardiomyopathy, which is characterized by transient myocardial dysfunction and arrhythmias. Cardiomyopathy along with acute acute inflammatory thromboembolism and endotheliitis (fragile endothelium) might at least partially explain the underlying mechanisms of rapidly evolving life-threatening COVID-19. Further studies are clearly required to explore these complex pathologies.
