As the sequence of events of impaired wound healing is well characterized, the possibility to identify treatments that are already in the market and that are known to target one or, even better, many of the described molecular events can be taken into account. In this regard, several molecules with different indications have shown beneficial effects in promoting wound healing. Through these molecules

Introduction: The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence and factors associated with Postoperative Mortality (POM) in the general surgery department of the Ignace Deen hospital of the Conakry University Hospital. Material and methods: This was a Four-month prospective cohort (September to December 2018) conducted in the general surgery department of the Ignace Deen hospital of the Conakry University Hospital. The patients were divided into groups of “deceased” and “alive” postoperatively. The qualitative and quantitative variables were compared in these two groups. The univariate logistic regression then the multivariate one was carried out. Results: a series of 399 operated on was included in the analysis

Background: Patients with cancer were susceptible to COVID-19 have been reported in previous study. The clinical progression and outcomes of patients with glioma infected COVID-19 have not been reported until now. Methods: We included all patients with glioma infected with COVID-19 who were admitted to Wuhan Tongji Hospital in China in this retrospective study. We also enrolled glioma patients without COVID-19 at the same time as controls. We collected and analyzed clinical data from medical records and evaluated outcomes for patients with glioma infected with COVID-19. Cox proportional hazard model was used to evaluate whether the infection with COVID-19 was independent risk of progression for glioma. Results: From Jan 19 to April 1, 2020, ten patients with glioma infected with COVID-19 and forty glioma patients without COVID-19 were included in this study. The incidence of COVID-19 in glioma patients with was 0.52% (10 of 1926 COVID-19 total hospitalizations). Of ten patients, four had low-grade glioma, three had grade III glioma, two had glioblastoma (GBM),, and one had medulloblastoma, with a mean age of 58±18.3 years (range 13-71 years). Clinical symptoms were fever (nine [90.0%] patients), cough (six [60%] patient), anhelation (five [50%] patients), diarrhea (one [10.0%] patient) and muscle pain (one [10.0%] patient). One patient with GBM progressed to ARDS and died of severe respiratory failure, one patient with GBM was transferred to the ICU because of progression to ARDS, and the remaining eight patients were discharged. The Cox regress analysis showed that progression-free survival of glioma patients without COVID-19 was significantly longer than glioma pa - tients with COVID-19. (hazard ratio [HR] 0.083, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.007-0.960, P = 0.046). Conclusions: O ur findings suggested that progression-free survival of glioma patients without COVID-19 was significantly longer than glioma patients with COVID-19. Patients with glioma infected with COVID-19 were more higher risk to deteriorate in progression than those patients without COVID-19 during follow-up period.
