- Clinical predictors of mortality due to COVID-19 based on an analysis of data of 150 patients from Wuhan, China (2020, background): “Dear Editor, The rapid emergence of COVID-19 in Wuhan city, Hubei Province, China, has resulted in thousands of deaths [1] .”
- Boceprevir, GC-376, and calpain inhibitors II, XII inhibit SARS-CoV-2 viral replication by targeting the viral main protease (2020, methodology): “35% as of May 26, 2020, which is lower than that of SARS (~10%) and MERS (~34%).(1) However, current data indicate that COVID-19 is more contagious and has a larger R0 value than SARS and MERS(5), resulting in higher overall death tolls than SARS and MERS.”
- CoroNet: A deep neural network for detection and diagnosis of COVID-19 from chest x-ray images (2020, background): “In severe cases, the infection may cause pneumonia, difficulty breathing, multi-organ failure and death [2][3].”
- Angiotensin receptor blockers as tentative SARS‐CoV‐2 therapeutics (2020, background): “…SARS-CoV-2, which emerged in late December 2019 in Wuhan, China (World Health Organization, 2019), has surpassed the combined death toll of the SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) epidemic of 2002–2003 and the MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome) epidemic of 2013 combined (Mahase, 2020).”
- Automatic detection of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) using X-ray images and deep convolutional neural networks (2020, background): “n include respiratory symptoms, fever, cough and dyspnea. In more serious cases, the infection can cause pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome, septic shock, multi-organ failure, and death [4],[8]. It has been determined that men are more infected than women and that there is no death in chil”
- Dual-Sampling Attention Network for Diagnosis of COVID-19 From Community Acquired Pneumonia (2020, result): “Compared with the prior Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), COVID-19 has spread to more places and caused more deaths, despite its relatively lower fatality rate [4], [5].”
- Psychological Impact and Coping Strategies of Frontline Medical Staff in Hunan Between January and March 2020 During the Outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Hubei, China (2020, background): “Although recent reports have shown that 80% of patients with COVID-19 have mild symptoms and will recover and the mortality rate is low at up to 2%, because of the high transmission rate, total mortality from COVID-19 is greater than SARS and MRES combined [4].”
- Small business awareness and adoption of state-of-the-art technologies in emerging and developing markets, and lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic (2020, background): “Although the COVID-19 is not as fatal as other forms of virus diseases such as Ebola, SARS, and MERS, its most significant danger is its fast spread and ease of contagion (Mahase 2020).”
- Mental health problems faced by healthcare workers due to the COVID-19 pandemic–A review (2020, background): “Despite the low mortality rate of 2 %, the COVID-19 virus has a high transmission rate and the mortality is higher than that caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and middle east respiratory syndrome (MERS) combined (Mahase, 2020).”
- Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19): A literature review (2020, neutral): “By some estimates it has a higher reproductive number than SARS [27], and more people have been reported to have been infected or died from it than SARS [68].”
