    Abstract

    Background: 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is spreading in China and the disease was named as COVID-19, short for “coronavirus disease 2019”. However, other respiratory viruses also cause similar symptoms as COVID-19 does. Here, we summarized the composition of pathogens in fever clinic patients and analyzed characteristics of different respiratory viruses infection.

    Methods: Retrospectively collected patients with definite etiological results using nasal and pharyngeal swabs in fever clinic. Epidemiologic features, clinical presentation, laboratory findings and image features were collected and analyzed.

    • Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Outbreak; A Systematic Review for Published Papers 23 Pages Posted: 13 Feb 2020 Adel Al-Gheethi Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM) - Micropollutant Research Centre (MPRC) Efaq Noman Taiz University - Department of Applied Microbiology Qais Ali Al-Maqtari Jiangnan University - State Key Laboratory of Food Science and Technology Kamal Hezam Taiz University - Department of Applied Microbiology Radin Mohamed Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM) - Micropollutant Research Centre (MPRC) Balkis Talip Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM) - Faculty of Applied Sciences and Technology Norli Ismail Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) - Environmental Technology Division Abstract The novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) outbreak has been traced in China late 2019 and then was transmitted into more than 25 countries. A total of 49 papers have been published in 20 journals during the last January and current February. These papers tried to explain the source of virus, the transmission route, genomic map and the similarity to previous viruses as well as the pathogenesis, symptoms and treatment methods. The huge numbers of the articles which were published on 2019-nCoV make confusing for the readers, since many of the articles are addressed similar topics. In this paper a systematic analysis was conducted for the published articles. The finding of these papers were summarized. Moreover, the present paper aim to highlight the responses of scientists and Journals for the 2019-nCoV outbreak. This paper reviewed 49 peer viewed articles while hundreds article still in the preprint. It was appeared that the Lancet journal has the highest numbers of publications (29%) which given an early alarm for 2019-nCoV. The first paper suggested Baricitinib as potential treatment for 2019-nCoV acute respiratory disease was published on 3 February in the Lancet Journal. In 16 January 2020, the genomic characteristics of the virus was published, followed by several papers on the diagnostic of the virus, pathogenicity and symptoms was more clear on 29 January. The Nature Journal was the fist which given an alarm for the 2019-nCoV outbreak. In conclusion source of 2019-nCoV, treatment methods, as well as vaccines, pathogenicity of the virus in the patient with HIV or other virus infections, transmission to fetus in the pregnant women still need more investigation.

    • Analysis of 2019 Novel Coronavirus Infection and Clinical Characteristics of Outpatients: An Epidemiological Study from the Fever Clinic in Wuhan, China 28 Pages Posted: 20 Feb 2020 Wenhua Liu Huazhong University of Science and Technology (Formerly Tongi Medical University) - Clinical Research Center Feng Wang Huazhong University of Science and Technology (Formerly Tongi Medical University) - Department of Laboratory Medicine More... Abstract Background: Since the outbreak of 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) pneumonia, thousands of patients with fever, cough or fatigue were flocked to department of fever outpatients of designated hospitals in Wuhan, China, everyday. To date, no data have been provided to reflect the prevalence of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) among these outpatients. Besides, little is known on the distinguishable clinical features between COVID-19 and nucleic acid negative patients in fever clinics. Methods: From January 30 to February 4, 2020, a retrospective study was conducted on 936 patients from the fever clinic of Tongji Hospital, the biggest third-level grade-A hospital in Wuhan, which is located in the worst affected area by 2019-nCoV. The infectious status of 2019-nCoV was estimated among the outpatients in the fever clinics. The epidemiological and clinical characteristics were compared between COVID-19 and nucleic acid negative patients.
