Selected Drugs Ivermectin has anti-parasitic effect along with anti-viral activity against a broad range of viruses in vitro. Ivermectin was identified as an inhibitor of interaction between the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) integrase protein (IN) and the importin (IMP) α/β1 heterodimer

Selected Drugs Hydroxychloroquine (an analog of chloroquine) has been demonstrated to have an anti-SARS-CoV activity in vitro. Hydroxychloroquine clinical safety profile is better than that of chloroquine (during long-term use) and allows higher daily dose and has fewer concerns about drug-drug

When a subject with an eligible distal forearm fracture is identified, the subject will be approached for enrollment and consent. Fracture hematoma size will then be estimated using bedside ultrasound operated by trained pediatric emergency faculty or fellows. Ultrasound measurement of the

Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has an established history of reducing airway distress. VNS has at least two mechanisms of action that may profoundly affect respiratory function in patients with respiratory distress due to CoViD-19. First, vagus nerve stimulation modulates bronchoconstriction, acute
