Blood analysis predicts sepsis and organ failure in children: University of Queensland researchers have discovered a method to predict if a child is likely to develop sepsis and go into organ failure. Associate Professor Lachlan Coin from UQ’s Institute for Molecular Bioscience said sepsis was a life-threatening condition where a severe immune response to infection […]

Evidence from autopsies show that COVID-19 causes pulmonary arterial thrombosis and damages other organs as well as the lungs. COVID-19, the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, not only may lead to severe pneumonia but also to thrombosis in the lungs and, subsequently, to multi organ failure involving kidneys, liver and pancreas. These are the findings of […]
