    Abstract Introduction: The smell dysfunction in COVID-19 patients has remained an unexplained topic. The blood parameters' variability in COVID-19 patients with anosmia has been studied in few literatures. The study is aimed to find the association of anosmia with the blood grouping and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in coronavirus-infected patients. Materials and Methods: Database from Medical Records Department of a Tertiary Care Teaching Hospital in Northern India was searched from July 2020 to December 2020. Every fifth file was selected using the stratified random sampling. Laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 cases by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction files were included. Blood grouping and CRP levels were assessed and statistically correlated. Results: A total of 103 patients of coronavirus-associated infection with anosmia were included among which 52 (50.48%) patients were from moderate category of AIIMS-ICMR joint task Force's clinical guidelines. A total of 44 (42.71%) patients had moderate levels of elevated CRP. The blood Group B-type was found most commonly in 35 (33.98%) patients. The correlation of severity of COVID-19 infection with CRP was found to be statistically significant (Chi-square test statistic was 31.203 and P = 0.00023) in patients presenting with smell dysfunction. Conclusion: Anosmia was found to a suggestive symptom for the early identification of coronavirus-infected cases. In this study, CRP levels showed statistically significant association with anosmia in COVID-19 patients. Predilection for specific blood groups serves as platform for further research.

    Abstract Objective: Covid19 has emerged as a greatest threat of the decade worldwide. At present there is no certain treatment for treating coronavirus diseases, while some antiviral drugs (Remdesivir , Lopinavir and Ritonavir) are under investigation. Many countries including India have adopted the convalescent plasma therapy in the treatment of moderate to severely ill patients. Despite the treatment being given ,there are no such evidences on the utility and efficacy of convalescent plasma.Hence this study tries to find out the impact on the discharge status from hospital of the patients receiving the very therapy. Design: Systematic review and meta analysis. Setting: An extensive search was made, following PRISMA guidelines on online databases such as Pubmed, Google scholar and Science direct.Studies those fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria ,were included and reviewed and analyzed for a common outcome(discharge status). Participants: A total of 6 eligible studies were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively which included three case control, two case series and one case report. Results: The overall pooled discharge rate from the above studies was 75.7% after the CP therapy. When analyzed for relative risk , it showed CP therapy having a lower risk of staying in hospital (not getting discharged) when compared to Standard therapy ,overall RR (relative risk) being 0.946. Conclusion: Our study shows that there is always a higher rate of discharge and low risk of prolonged hospital stay in those patients who receive plasma therapy. CP therapy being a low cost and easy to administer therapy with very less adverse events, requires more focus on further research as it has a potential to become an ideal effective treatment option for COVID-19.

    Abstract Objective: Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a primary immunodeficiency that is clinically heterogeneous, characterized by both infectious and noninfectious complications. Although the hallmark of disease presentation is commonly a history of recurrent sinopulmonary infections, autoimmunity and noninfectious inflammatory conditions are increasingly associated with CVID.
    Data sources: A comprehensive literature search using PubMed of basic science and clinical articles was performed.
    Study selections: Articles discussing the association of autoimmunity with primary immunodeficiency, specifically CVID, were selected.
    Results: The most common autoimmune conditions are cytopenias, including immune thrombocytopenia purpura and hemolytic anemia, but organ-specific autoimmune/inflammatory complications involving the gastrointestinal, skin, joints, connective tissue, and respiratory tract. In most cases, immunoglobulin replacement therapy does not ameliorate or treat these inflammatory complications, and additional immunomodulatory treatments are needed.
    Conclusion: Mechanisms producing these conditions are poorly understood but include cytokine and cellular inflammatory pathways, and loss of tolerance to self-antigens through the multiple signaling molecules and pathways common to tolerance and immune deficiency.

    Abstract Edit fidelity is a significant issue in open-world controllable generative image editing. Recently, CLIP-based approaches have traded off simplicity to alleviate these problems by introducing spatial attention in a handpicked layer of a StyleGAN. In this paper, we propose CoralStyleCLIP, which incorporates a multi-layer attention-guided blending strategy in the feature space of StyleGAN2 for obtaining high-fidelity edits. We propose multiple forms of our co-optimized region and layer selection strategy to demonstrate the variation of time complexity with the quality of edits over different architectural intricacies while preserving simplicity. We conduct extensive experimental analysis and benchmark our method against state-of-the-art CLIP-based methods. Our findings suggest that CoralStyleCLIP results in high-quality edits while preserving the ease of use.
