Title A name given to the resource Higher Education Response in the Time of Coronavirus: Perceptions of Teachers and Students, and Open Innovation Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Fernanda Tusa, Santiago Tejedor, Laura Cervi, Ana Pérez-Escoda, Alberto Parola Description An account of the resource The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed training processes. The transition from face-to-face to virtuality has affected the entire educational process favoring one of the open innovation key features in the higher education institutions: the ability to manage knowledge flow. Open innovation in this crisis situation will encourage universities to deal with difficulties and embrace opportunities to enhance knowledge production. In this regard, the main objective of this work is to analyze how universities have managed knowledge flow during lockdown situation. The research presents a comparative study between three countries highly impacted by the coronavirus (Spain, Italy and Ecuador) based on perceptions from teachers and students on a convenience sample of 573 individuals. The study, of a descriptive and exploratory nature, applied surveys between March and April 2020 to students and teachers of Journalism, Communication. The survey had 2956 responses, collecting 65,032 pieces of evidence from students and 6468 from teachers. Teachers and students show their preference for being present, but they recognize the justification for the change of scenery and identify positive elements in virtuality. According to the findings obtained, the absence of presence has not generated an increase in the meetings between teachers and students. In addition, the tutorials have been shorter and sporadic. Added to this is a scant commitment to the variety of resources and options offered by the Internet. The predominance of textual material collides with the demand from students for a mixture of training resources, a greater role for the podcast and, especially, a typology of assessment tests that pass the traditional exams.

Title A name given to the resource SARS-CoV-2: From Structure to Pathology, Host Immune Response and Therapeutic Management Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Corneliu Ovidiu Vrancianu, Mariana Carmen Chifiriuc, Grigore Mihaescu, Ciprian Iliescu, Lia-Mara Ditu, Luminita Gabriela Marutescu, Raluca Grigore, Șerban Berteșteanu, Marian Constantin, Gratiela Gradisteanu Pircalabioru Description An account of the resource Coronaviruses are large, enveloped viruses with a single-stranded RNA genome, infecting both humans and a wide range of wild and domestic animals. SARS-CoV-2, the agent of the COVID-19 pandemic, has 80% sequence homology with SARS-CoV-1 and 96–98% homology with coronaviruses isolated from bats. The spread of infection is favored by prolonged exposure to high densities of aerosols indoors. Current studies have shown that SARS-CoV-2 is much more stable than other coronaviruses and viral respiratory pathogens. The severe forms of infection are associated with several risk factors, including advanced age, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, obesity, chronic inflammatory or autoimmune disease, and other preexisting infectious diseases, all having in common the pre-existence of a pro-inflammatory condition. Consequently, it is essential to understand the relationship between the inflammatory process and the specific immune response in SARS-CoV-2 infection. In this review, we present a general characterization of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (origin, sensitivity to chemical and physical factors, multiplication cycle, genetic variability), the molecular mechanisms of COVID-19 pathology, the host immune response and discuss how the inflammatory conditions associated with different diseases could increase the risk of COVID-19. Last, but not least, we briefly review the SARS-CoV-2 diagnostics, pharmacology, and future approaches toward vaccine development.

Title A name given to the resource LA SOCIEDAD PARAGUAYA Y LA BIOPOLÍTICA EN TIEMPOS DE CORONAVIRUS: ENTRE KILL BILL Y PARASITE Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Javier Numan Caballero Merlo Description An account of the resource Se plantea como problema la sociedad actual como disciplinar (Foucault, 1969), panóptica (1980), de encauzamiento de las buenas prácticas, de institucionalización de lo normal, como mecanismos emergentes de particulares relaciones de saber-poder-moral concretas e históricas. Y como aquella ha encontrado en la pandemia por la diseminación del coronavirus de manera global un caldo de cultivo fértil para su extensión. El objetivo es mostrar cómo una vez abierto dicho espacio se usa para el despliegue de la biopolítica. Más allá de lo viral y estrictamente sanitario, cómo los dispositivos desatan el terror, instalan la histeria y paranoia colectiva, produciendo nuevas formas de control, hasta la aceptación trágica del auto encierro. ¡Qué mejor que encerrarse a uno mismo! La metodología ha sido cualitativa y las técnicas, análisis de contenido, y grupos focales secundarios de las redes sociales seleccionados como muestra intencional. Como resultado se tiene que la biopolítica aprovecha la ‘ventana’ del virus, bajo una aceptación legitimada en el terror, posibilitando que se inmiscuye reforzando un régimen de vigilancia más eficiente y eficaz. En un recordatorio permanente de muerte definir qué es, y la propia vida. Los espacios públicos de relacionamiento y encuentro, libertades y derechos, pasan a modalidad on line. Entre un panorama romántico humanista planteado por Zizek como golpe al corazón al capitalismo al estilo Kill Bill, se opta por una visión más crítica de reconformación y profundización del capitalismo y su biopolítica, al estilo de Bong Joon-Ho en su Parasite.

Title A name given to the resource Thromboprophylaxis in Covid-19 Positive Pregnant Women Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kazibe Koyuncu, Önder Sakin, Hale Ankara aktaş, Kadir Şahin, Taylan Aygün, Ali Doğukan Anğın, Ahmet Kale Description An account of the resource INTRODUCTION[|]Serious Covid-19 disease is often complicated by coagulopathy. Most of Covid-19-related deaths have been shown to be caused by extensive intravascular coagulation disorders. Our aim in this study is to examine the importance of thromboprophylaxis in Covid-19 positive pregnant women.[¤]METHODS[|]Pregnant women diagnosed with Covid-19 with the polymerase chain reaction test were retrospectively analyzed and treatment processes were evaluated.[¤]RESULTS[|]A total of 18 pregnant women were followed up with the diagnosis of Covid-19. The mean age of the patients was 28.90+-5.26 (18–41). Laboratory results revealed high CRP levels (11/18), lymphocytopenia (10/18) and increased neutrophil percentage (14/18). CT examinations were reported as widespread involvement findings (ground glass opacities - GGO) in 3 of 8 patients and mild fibrotic changes in 5 of the patients. Thromboprophylaxis was not applied in 4 outpatients however applied in 9/14 of the hospitalized patients. The average duration of drug use is 7.1 days (1–14). Average hospital stay is 3.3 days (2–16). The preferred dose is 40 mg 1x1/day. In a patient with suspected pulmonary embolism, 60 mg of 2x1/day enoxaparin was used. Maternal, fetal, and hemorrhagic complications were not observed. [¤]DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION[|]Since there is a tendency to hypercoagulation in pregnancy, thromboembolic events are more common. Therefore, starting LMWH treatment before Covid-19 infection progresses could be beneficial for preventing embolic complications that may be fatal.[¤] Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2020 Subject The topic of the resource covid-19, Pregnancy, low molecular weight heparin, thromboembolism prophylaxis Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 10.14744/scie.2020.86548 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Epidemiology and Health Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Korean Society of Epidemiology Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant Medicine https://www.socictopen.socict.org/files/original/23e597ae3aa157ae281657cda2cfa1ae.pdf 6808d60bcb3c038c482da5673dce1a7e Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The subjects were healthcare workers (HCWs) with suspected COVID-19 symptoms or exposure to patients with confirmed COVID-19, caregivers at the hospital for complete enumeration, and patients who were scheduled to be admitted to a nonrestricted area in the hospital or to visit for outpatient treatment, but had suspected COVID-19 symptoms. The subjects were divided and compared as follows: HCW versus non-HCW groups and RT-PCR positive versus negative groups.Results: A total of 140 had symptoms, 291 wanted to be tested, and 664 were asymptomatic but were screened. Seven subjects had positive results for COVID-19. Compared with the non-HCWs, the HCWs were younger and had a lower rate of underlying medical conditions. In addition, there were more women, individuals with exposure to confirmed cases, and individuals with symptoms or those who just wanted to be tested. The frequency of all symptoms was high among the HCWs. The results of the logistic regression analysis showed that the HCWs were significantly associated with the presence of symptoms, having an odds ratio of 23.317 (confidence interval, 15.142– 35.907L; P < 0.001). The positive group had a high rate of exposure to patients with confirmed COVID-19 and had more subjects with symptoms or those who wanted to be tested.Conclusion: In-hospital screening stations are a relatively safe way to protect and support HCWs and to reduce and manage the spread of infection within the hospital effectively during an outbreak in the community.Keywords: coronavirus disease 2019, healthcare workers, nocebo effect, hospital infection, screening Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2021 Subject The topic of the resource Healthcare workers, hospital infection, screening, Coronavirus disease 2019, nocebo effect Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Biotemas Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant Public aspects of medicine https://www.socictopen.socict.org/files/original/7facf8bc7bdc8aee016bf88aa5d6ef03.pdf c7de8810cd8325e0fd540ace9928956d Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Infectious Bronchitis Coronavirus Infection in Chickens: Multiple System Disease with Immune Suppression Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Mohamed Faizal Abdul-Careem, Susan C. Cork, Shahnas M. Najimudeen, Mohamed S. H. Hassan Description An account of the resource In the early 1930s, infectious bronchitis (IB) was first characterized as a respiratory disease in young chickens; later, the disease was also described in older chickens. The etiology of IB was confirmed later as being due to a coronavirus: the infectious bronchitis virus (IBV). Being a coronavirus, IBV is subject to constant genome change due to mutation and recombination, with the consequence of changing clinical and pathological manifestations. The potential use of live attenuated vaccines for the control of IBV infection was demonstrated in the early 1950s, but vaccine breaks occurred due to the emergence of new IBV serotypes. Over the years, various IBV genotypes associated with reproductive, renal, gastrointestinal, muscular and immunosuppressive manifestations have emerged. IBV causes considerable economic impacts on global poultry production due to its pathogenesis involving multiple body systems and immune suppression; hence, there is a need to better understand the pathogenesis of infection and the immune response in order to help developing better management strategies. The evolution of new strains of IBV during the last nine decades against vaccine-induced immune response and changing clinical and pathological manifestations emphasize the necessity of the rational development of intervention strategies based on a thorough understanding of IBV interaction with the host.

Title A name given to the resource Facial protection for healthcare workers during pandemics: a scoping review Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Peter D Sullivan, Laura R Garcia Godoy, Amy E Jones, Taylor N Anderson, Cameron L Fisher, Kylie M L Seeley, Erynn A Beeson, Hannah K Zane, Jaime W Peterson Description An account of the resource Background The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to personal protective equipment (PPE) shortages, requiring mask reuse or improvisation. We provide a review of medical-grade facial protection (surgical masks, N95 respirators and face shields) for healthcare workers, the safety and efficacy of decontamination methods, and the utility of alternative strategies in emergency shortages or resource-scarce settings.Methods We conducted a scoping review of PubMed and grey literature related to facial protection and potential adaptation strategies in the setting of PPE shortages (January 2000 to March 2020). Limitations included few COVID-19-specific studies and exclusion of non-English language articles. We conducted a narrative synthesis of the evidence based on relevant healthcare settings to increase practical utility in decision-making.Results We retrieved 5462 peer-reviewed articles and 41 grey literature records. In total, we included 67 records which met inclusion criteria. Compared with surgical masks, N95 respirators perform better in laboratory testing, may provide superior protection in inpatient settings and perform equivalently in outpatient settings. Surgical mask and N95 respirator conservation strategies include extended use, reuse or decontamination, but these strategies may result in inferior protection. Limited evidence suggests that reused and improvised masks should be used when medical-grade protection is unavailable.Conclusion The COVID-19 pandemic has led to critical shortages of medical-grade PPE. Alternative forms of facial protection offer inferior protection. More robust evidence is required on different types of medical-grade facial protection. As research on COVID-19 advances, investigators should continue to examine the impact on alternatives of medical-grade facial protection.

Title A name given to the resource Particulate Matter Short-Term Exposition, Mobility Trips and COVID-19 Diffusion: A Correlation Analyses for the Italian Case Study at Urban Scale Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Armando Cartenì, Furio Cascetta, Luigi Di Francesco, Felisia Palermo Description An account of the resource The conjecture discussed in this paper was that the daily number of certified cases of COVID-19 is direct correlated to the average particular matter (PM) concentrations observed several days before when the contagions occurred (short-term effect), and this correlation is higher for areas with a higher average seasonal PM concentration, as a measure of prolonged exposure to a polluted environment (long-term effect). Furthermore, the correlations between the daily COVID-19 new cases and the mobility trips and those between the daily PM concentrations and mobility trips were also investigated. Correlation analyses were performed for the application case study consisting in 13 of the main Italian cities, through the national air quality and mobility monitoring systems. Data analyses showed that the mobility restrictions performed during the lockdown produced a significant improvement in air quality with an average PM concentrations reduction of about 15%, with maximum variations ranging between 25% and 42%. Estimation results showed a positive correlation (stronger for the more highly polluted cities) between the daily COVID-19 cases and both the daily PM concentrations and mobility trips measured about three weeks before, when probably the contagion occurred. The obtained results are original, and if confirmed in other studies, it would lay the groundwork for the definition of the main context variables which influenced the COVID-19 spread. The findings highlighted in this research also supported by the evidence in the literature and allow concluding that PM concentrations and mobility habits could be considered as potential early indicators of COVID-19 circulation in outdoor environments. However, the obtained results pose significant ethical questions about the proper urban and transportation planning; the most polluted cities have not only worst welfare for their citizens but, as highlighted in this research, could lead to a likely greater spread of current and future respiratory and/or pulmonary health emergencies. The lesson to be learned by this global pandemic will help planners to better preserve the air quality of our cities in the post-COVID-19 era.
