The detection of viral nucleic acid by real time RT-PCR is the main confirmative diagnostic method for COVID-19 in clinical practice in China and worldwide. However, its sensitivity is unclear. Here we report two cases in a family in Guizhou, southwestern China. The father had a history of long stay in Wuhan. Surprisingly, although the son was diagnosed positive using the nasopharyngeal swab specimen and the rRT-PCR method, the father was diagnosed negative continuously for multiple times. Only after the alveolar lavage fluid sample was used, the father’s rRT-PCR diagnosis turned positive. Their CT diagnosis and clinical symptoms did not completely align with their rRT-PCR diagnostic results. The underlying mechanisms and their implications to clinical practice are discussed.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a novel infectious disease that spreads rapidly around the world and endangers global public health. Because of the lack of specificity of previously identified CT images, such as peripheral and subpleural ground glass opacities, early diagnosis is still a big challenge for radiologists. How to improve the accuracy of diagnosis and make diagnosis as early as possible is a problem concerned by the medical field. This article reports two important CT manifestations in COVID-19 patients

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has swept across all countries in the world within half a year, which is taking the world by surprise. We reported an elderly, severe, complicated COVID-19 case, describing the clinical manifestations, laboratory examinations, CT findings, diagnosis, treatment and dynamic disease course. 3D post-processing technique was used to reconstruct different pulmonary lesions, and it was found to be useful for highlighting and observing them, thereby helping diagnose and distinguish different diseases.

Psoriasis is immune-mediated chronic inflammatory disorder related to Th1 pattern, in which, 2 to 3% of white population worldwide have been affected. It is demonstrated that excessive secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-17A, TNF-α, IL-6, IFN-γ, IL-2 and IL-12 are involved in the immunopathogenesis and clinical manifestations of the disease. Common and previous therapeutics strategies have not been beneficial for all patients, yet. So, there is increasing considerations, leading basic medical scientists toward new directions. During last decade, exponential growth of immune based methods with easy accessibility, less morbidity and operatively yields in clinical trials, has opened a new window to novel clinical applications. Recently, approaches with immunological perspectives such as special immunobiomarkers recruitment, stem cells and vectors have been appropriated to psoriasis immunotherapy purposes. Various evidences suggest that interleukin-35 (IL-35) has important roles in immune system regulation as a promising anti-inflammatory agent. Also, it is demonstrated that Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) are able to hold anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties, too. Here, we suggest a hypothetical cell and gene-based immunotherapy method that it could be advantageous for pro-inflammatory agents diminution in psoriatic patients. We hope that anti-inflammatory effects of IL-35 gene transfer via Adenoassociated virus as a vector by Bone Marrow derived-MSCs (BM-MSCs) in an Imiquimod-induced psoriasis-like mouse model, will probably be efficient in psoriasis global dilemma domination. Keywords: Psoriasis, IL-35, Mesenchymal stem cell, Regenerative medicine, Clinical applications.
