Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The health crisis generated by the COVID-19 pandemic represented a real challenge for all of humanity. Shortly after the identification of the first infections with the new SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, a series of modern rapid identification techniques were developed and researched, the main goal being the mass testing of the population in order to identify and isolate to reduce transmission.
An intensively studied segment was represented by the expression of microRNAs both in the identification/testing methods and in the development of vaccines and the detailed understanding of the biochemical and molecular processes that take place in COVID-19 patients.
We are pleased to invite you to contribute with papers in this Special Issue regarding the expression of microRNAs in COVID-19, the use of microRNAs in the detection of SARS-CoV-2, the use of microRNAs in the development of innovative treatments for patients with COVID-19, and the interaction of microRNAs in the pathways biochemical and molecular specific to this pathology.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- microRNA expression in COVID-19;
- Use of microRNAs in the detection of SARS-CoV-2;
- Implications of microRNAs in the biochemical pathways of COVID-19;
- Expression of microRNAs in the inflammatory response in COVID-19 patients;
- Other clinical and biochemical complications specific to COVID-19;
- Impact of COVID-19 on public health.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Diagnostics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
