Medical Science Feb 02, 2021 Stereotypic neutralizing VH antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor binding domain in patients with COVID-19 and healthy individuals Stereotypic antibody clonotypes exist in healthy individuals and may provide protective immunity against viral infections by neutralization. We observed that 13 of 17 patients with COVID-19 had stereotypic variable heavy chain (VH) antibody clonotypes directed against the receptor binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. Medical Science Nov 02, 2020 SNU Webinar: Europe and WHO's response to COVID-19 SNU Responds to COVID-19, SNU Webinar: Europe and WHO's response to COVID-19, November 6th pm 4:00~5:30 Medical Science Oct 14, 2020 Estimating the Effectiveness of Non-Pharmaceutical Interventions on COVID-19 Control in Korea. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has posed significant global public health challenges and created a substantial economic burden. Medical Science Oct 14, 2020 Aberrant hyperactivation of cytotoxic T-cell as a potential determinant of COVID-19 severity We hypothesized that immune response may contribute to progression of coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) at the second week of illness. Therefore, we compared cell-mediated immune (CMI) responses between severe and mild COVID-19 cases. Medical Science Oct 14, 2020 Information Technology–Based Management of Clinically Healthy COVID-19 Patients: Lessons From a Living and Treatment Support Center Operated by Seoul National University Hospital South Korea took preemptive action against coronavirus disease (COVID-19) by implementing extensive testing, thorough epidemiological investigation, strict social distancing, and rapid treatment of patients according to disease severity. Medical Science Oct 14, 2020 Social Distancing and Transmission-reducing Practices during the 2019 Coronavirus Disease and 2015 Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Outbreaks in Korea The absence of effective antiviral medications and vaccines increased the focus on non-pharmaceutical preventive behaviors for mitigating against the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Medical Science Oct 14, 2020 Therapeutic Temperature Modulation for a Critically Ill Patient with COVID-19 We report a rapidly deteriorating coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patient, a-58-year-old woman, with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome and shock with hyperpyrexia up to 41.8°C, probably due to the cytokine storm syndrome. Medical Science Oct 14, 2020 Defining Association between COVID-19 and the Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children through the Pandemic Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute febrile systemic vasculitis of early childhood with a predilection for the coronary arteries. Medical Science Oct 14, 2020 Comparisons of Clinical Outcomes between Weekday-Only and Full-Time, 24-Hour/7-Day Coverage Hospitalist Systems Since the launch of pilot programs in 2016, varying ranges of hospitalist coverage exist in Korea. We evaluated the effects of differing depths of hospitalist coverage on clinical outcomes. Medical Science Oct 14, 2020 Remdesivir for the Treatment of Covid-19 — Preliminary Report Although several therapeutic agents have been evaluated for the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19), no antiviral agents have yet been shown to be efficacious.
