Systemische Immunsuppression in Zeiten von COVID‐19: Müssen wir umdenken?
2020
Zusammenfassung Die aktuelle SARS‐CoV‐2 Pandemie gefährdet vor allem ältere Menschen mit kardiopulmonalen und metabolischen Vorerkrankungen. In aktueller Diskussion ist jedoch auch, ob Patienten unter immunsuppressiver Therapie ebenfalls ein höheres Risiko haben, im Fall einer COVID‐19‐Erkrankung einen schweren Krankheitsverlauf zu erleiden. Grundsätzlich gibt es derzeit jedoch keine Datenlage für eine generelle Reduktion oder Pausierung einer Immunsuppression bei Patienten mit Autoimmunerkrankungen in Zeiten der SARS‐CoV‐2‐Pandemie. Da es jedoch derzeit weder eine wirksame Therapie, noch einen entsprechenden Impfschutz gibt, sollten wir uns gezielt mit der Problematik chronisch‐immunsuppri…

She-Coronavirus: How cartoonists reflected women health workers during the COVID-19 pandemic
2021
Women account for 70% of healthcare workers, so their role has been – and still is – fundamental in addressing and managing the current pandemic event caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. Far from being an opportunity to highlight the importance of women in the field, the healthcare crisis, together with lockdown policies and care responsibilities, have contributed to increase the gender gap. To study the depiction of women healthcare professionals, this paper analyses 401 cartoons on the COVID-19 pandemic that depict healthcare workers. Most represent doctors as men and nurses as women, in roles subordinate to men. The representation of women is also impacted by stereotypes that do not c…

Lower ST-elevation myocardial infarction incidence during COVID-19 epidemic in Northern Europe
2020
We compared the ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) incidence during COVID-19 pandemic (March 2020) to January-February 2020 and to same time period in earlier years 2017-2019 in five Nordic-Baltic tertiary centers. During 2017-2019, there were no marked differences in STEMI incidence between January, February and March. During 2020, there was an average drop of 32% in STEMI incidence in March. The isolation measures may decrease the risk for respiratory virus infection and contribute to the lower STEMI incidence and that we might benefit from firmer suggestions on hand hygiene and social distancing during flu season at least among high-risk individuals.
