Predictors of negative first SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR despite final diagnosis of COVID-19 and association with outcome

Jean-Baptiste Lascarrou, Gwenhael Colin, Aurelie Le Thuaut, Nicolas Serck, Mickael Ohana, Bertrand Sauneuf, Guillaume Geri, Jean-Baptiste Mesland, Gaetane Ribeyre, Claire Hussenet, Anne Sophie Boureau, Thomas Gille

Summary: In a multicenter case-control study on COVID-19 patients, it was found that patients with symptoms of headache and fatigue/malaise were more likely to have a false-negative result in their first RT-PCR test. Conversely, patients with elevated platelet and C-reactive protein levels were at a higher risk of a false-negative first RT-PCR test result. This highlights the importance of evaluating strategies involving serial RT-PCR testing for COVID-19 diagnosis.

Molecular changes in the testes of COVID-19 patients

G. Demyashkin, E. Kogan, D. Boldyrev, T. Demura, A. Tyatyushkina, E. Annenkova, K. Semenov, I. Zorin, A. Zverev

Summary: After the outbreak of COVID-19, scientists have gained a better understanding of the disease's pathogenesis and its impact on various organs and tissues. However, the effect of the virus on fertility remains unclear. Previous studies have provided conflicting results, and there is no evidence of a direct effect on the male reproductive organs. Further research is needed to confirm if the testicles are a target organ for SARS-CoV-2.

Summary: COVID-19 has become a pandemic that disrupts everyone's routine and balanced way of life worldwide. Multiple COVID-19 vaccines have been developed, but the ability of the SARS-CoV-2 virus to mutate poses challenges. It is crucial to spread vaccination programs and prevent the spread of the virus by identifying and isolating infected patients. Additionally, COVID-19 testing methods face issues such as cost, time consumption, and qualified personnel and facilities requirements.

Virological COVID-19 surveillance in Bavaria, Germany suggests no SARS-CoV-2 spread prior to the first German case in January 2020

Ute Eberle, Susanne Heinzinger, Regina Konrad, Clara Wimmer, Bernhard Liebl, Katharina Katz, Nikolaus Ackermann, Andreas Sing

Summary: The Bavarian Influenza Sentinel (BIS) monitors the annual influenza season by combining virological and epidemiological data. The 2019/2020 influenza season overlapped with the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing investigation into whether there was an unnoticed spread of SARS-CoV-2 in the community prior to the first COVID-19 cluster in Bavaria. Retrospective analysis of oropharyngeal swabs collected in BIS found no evidence of SARS-CoV-2 spread prior to late January 2020 in Bavaria.

Optimising genomic approaches for identifying vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium transmission in healthcare settings

Charlie Higgs, Norelle L. Sherry, Torsten Seemann, Kristy Horan, Hasini Walpola, Paul Kinsella, Katherine Bond, Deborah A. Williamson, Caroline Marshall, Jason C. Kwong, M. Lindsay Grayson, Timothy P. Stinear, Claire L. Gorrie, Benjamin P. Howden

Summary: The researchers developed a standardized genomic method to identify transmission links of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm). They found that clustering by core genome multilocus sequence type (cgMLST) provided more informative population structure than traditional MLST, and pairwise genome comparisons using split k-mer analysis (SKA) were effective in inferring patient-to-patient transmission. This study provides a standardized genomic framework for VREfm transmission detection, which can be globally deployed for outbreak detection and investigation.
