متن کاملViral Pneumonia in Adults
Molecular diagnostic tests have greatly increased our understanding of the role of viruses in pneumonia, and findings indicate that the incidence of viral pneumonia has been underestimated. The most commonly identified viruses in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) are influenza, rhinovirus, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and human metapneumovirus (hMPV). Viral infections are common in adult...

متن کاملNeutrophils to Lymphocytes Ratio and the Prognosisof the COVID-19 Patients
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a new pandemic virus, a global concern, and has threatened human health. This virus binds to the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) that is expressed on different cells, especially on the alveolar cells. So the virus can enter the lung cells and causes respiratory syndromes. In Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) that is cause...
