Background: Increased risk of thromboembolism during COVID-19 disease is confirmed. Case: A 40-year-old hypertensive otherwise healthy male with COVID-19 disease, presented with exacerbating dyspnea, demonstrated two large mural thrombus in right atrial appendage and right ventricular apex accompanied by pulmonary thromboembolism in imaging studies. He underwent anticoagulant therapy with significant reduction in thrombus sizes. Conclusion: Hypercoagulation state of COVID-19 disease may lead to serious cardiopulmonary injury.
Background: The exposure of individuals to heat at different jobs warrants the use of heat stress evaluation indices. Objectives: The aim of this study was to validate environmental stress index using an infrared radiation (IR) measurement instrument as a substitute for pyranometer in indoor workplaces.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
