TL;DR: Endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness could favor the recently discovered infection of the endothelium by SARS-CoV-2, whereas alterations in cardiac structure and function and the prothrombotic microenvironment in obesity could provide a link for the increased cardiovascular events in patients with COVID-19 disease.

TL;DR: Regardless of any direct or indirect neurological manifestations, the COVID-19 pandemic has a huge impact on the management of neurological patients, whether infected or not, and the majority of stroke services worldwide have been negatively influenced in terms of care delivery and fear to access healthcare services.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the volumes of the volumes for medical care in the United Kingdom and the United States.

TL;DR: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of emerging data indicate an increased risk of cerebrovascular events with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and the potential impact of coronav virus disease (COVID‐19) on the management and outcomes of acute stroke.

TL;DR: This narrative review seeks to present a comprehensive overview of current understanding of clinical features, risk factors, and pathophysiological processes of neurological ‘long-COVID’ sequelae, and proposes diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms that may aid in the prompt recognition and management of underlying causes of neurological symptoms that persist beyond the resolution of acute COVID-19.
