We designed a COVID-19 intensive care unit-specific virtual reality (ICU-VR) intervention and tested it on one of our COVID-19 patients. The impact of event scale-revised and the hospital anxiety and depression scale showed that this patient suffered from PTSD, anxiety, and depression on the day of the intervention. One week after receiving ICU-VR, levels of PTSD, anxiety and depression had normalized, and stayed normalized until 6 months after discharge. In conclusion, innovative technologies, such as VR, have the potential to improve psychological rehabilitation, and should therefore be considered by clinicians for the treatment of ICU-related psychological sequelae after COVID-19.Objective Renal thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is associated with complement overactivation and poor outcome in patients with lupus nephritis (LN). The role of genetic makeup of complement system in these patients remains to be elucidated. Methods The clinical and laboratory characteristics of 100 patients with LN during 2010-2017 were retrospectively analyzed. LN patients with renal TMA and condition-matched LN patients without renal TMA were studied. Twenty normal subjects were also enrolled for comparison. Whole exome sequence followed by Sanger sequence was used in our study cohort. Results Eight patients with renal TMA and eight condition-matched patients were enrolled from 100 LN patients with mean age 11.2 ± 2.0 years. Compared with condition-matched LN patients without renal TMA, LN patients with renal TMA exhibited statistically higher serum urea. Although most patients with renal TMA responded to plasma exchange, they had significantly higher relapse rate of nephritis, lower remission rate, and higher risk of end-
