ABSTRACT

Objective: To understand the relationship between deliberate rumination and post-traumatic growth and the mechanisms affecting this relationship, we constructed an adjustment model to test the impact of deliberate rumination on the post-traumatic growth of college students and the moderating role of self-efficacy during the 2019 COVID-19 pandemic. Study design and setting: A total of 881 college students from a university of science and technology in Guangdong Province, China, completed a questionnaire that measured deliberate rumination, post-traumatic growth, and self-efficacy. SPSS (version 26) and the PROCESS plug-in (version 4.0) were used for correlation and moderation analyses. Results: The correlation analysis showed that deliberate rumination was positively correlated with post-traumatic growth (r = 0.353, P < 0.01) and self-efficacy (r = 0.261, P < 0.01). Self-efficacy was also positively correlated with post-traumatic growth (r = 0.466, P < 0.01). In addition, we found that self-efficacy had a regulatory effect on the relationship between deliberate rumination and post-traumatic growth (R 2 = 0.287, P < 0.001) and that this effect was significant. Conclusion: The results show that deliberate rumination can be a positive predictor of post-traumatic growth and can play a certain role in fostering such growth. In addition, self-efficacy is a moderator that plays a buffer role between deliberate rumination and post-traumatic growth. These results contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms that affect post-traumatic growth.

ABSTRACT

The vaccine is still the best clinical measure for effective prevention and control of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The vaccine-associated ocular adverse reactions should be noted in detail among the medical community. We reported twelve eyes of 9 patients presented at the Department of Ophthalmology, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from March to August 2021 with ocular complaints following COVID-19 vaccination. The main inclusion criterion was the development of ocular symptoms within 14 days after receiving a dose of an inactivated COVID-19 vaccine. The mean (SD) age was 44.7 ± 16.5 years (range, 19-78 years), among which seven (77.8%) cases were women. The mean time of ocular adverse events was 7.1 days (range, 1-14 days) after receiving the inactivated COVID-19 vaccine. One patient was diagnosed with choroiditis, 1 with uveitis, 4 with keratitis, 1 with scleritis, 1 with acute retinal necrosis, and 1 with iridocyclitis. Although the causal relationship between vaccines and ocular adverse events cannot be established from this case series report, physicians should pay attention to the ocular adverse reactions following the COVID-19 vaccine administration.

ABSTRACT

Rare cases of viral keratitis after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination have been reported. Furthermore, to our knowledge, cases of viral keratitis after two rounds of COVID-19 vaccination have not yet been reported. We report the case of a 19-year-old man without a history of keratitis, who developed viral keratitis soon after receiving the second and third doses of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines. Each time after the patient received treatment with topical and systemic drugs, his ocular symptoms were gradually relieved, and corrected visual acuity in both eyes returned to normal. COVID-19 vaccination may be associated with rare cases of the development of keratitis in individuals without a medical history of keratitis. Physicians should be aware of the possible relationship between ocular symptoms and adverse reactions to the COVID-19 vaccination. Despite the potential risks of COVID-19 vaccination, the benefits of immunization against the virus far outweigh these risks.

ABSTRACT

Since the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), the number of people infected worldwide has been increasing, and the medical situation is very severe. In emergency situations, the development of innovative drugs and the treatment of new coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) new adaptations on the market The development of the certificate has become the only way to find specific therapeutic drugs and the best treatment plan for COVID-19. The mechanism of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) that mediates the invasion of host cells by SARS-CoV-2 has been discovered and is based on SARS-CoV- 2. Potential therapeutic targets of host and host, mainly including RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, 3CL protease, papain-like protease, Janus kinase, interleukin 6 and immunomodulators, etc. According to the above-mentioned pharmacological mechanism of action, the treatment of marketed drugs Great progress has been made in the development of new indications for COVID-19 and the clinical research and development of innovative drugs, but no specific drugs have been found. Some traditional Chinese medicines in China can block the SARS-CoV-2 replication cycle, regulate the body's immune response, and treat COVID-19. Biopharmaceuticals are currently undergoing phase I clinical studies in the world for the treatment of COVID-19. Biopharmaceuticals are progressing rapidly, accounting for 67%. At present, the research and development of drugs for the treatment of COVID-19 in China is facing severe challenges and biosafety The number of protection laboratories is small, the research on the mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 infection and the body's response mechanism is not in-depth, the resources of non-clinical cells and animal models are scarce, and the professional quantitative pharmacology research platform and professional talent training system are not perfect to treat COVID-19 The informatization of drug clinical trials and sample testing capabilities are in urgent need of improvement. If China can use this to improve its ability to develop new drugs in emergency situations, it will be able to better protect people's health.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a highly infectious and pathogenic respiratory disease. To date, there is no effective treatment, and there is an urgent need to develop vaccines against the virus. Five coronavirus COVID-19 vaccines have been approved for inoculation in China, with good safety and few adverse reactions. CASE PRESENTATION: A 50-year-old woman complained of bilateral blurred vision and visual distortion 5 days after vaccination with the inactivated COVID-19 vaccine. Physical and auxiliary examination showed that she developed bilateral posterior uveitis. The patient was administered local and systemic steroids, and the symptoms were appreciably improved 5 weeks later. CONCLUSIONS: A case of bilateral uveitis after COVID-19 vaccination was reported and indicated that uveitis after vaccination appears transient and responds well to steroids.
