Organ-specific manifestations of COVID-19 infection.

TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of the organ-specific systemic manifestations of COVID-19 is provided, showing that over a third of infected patients develop a broad spectrum of neurological symptoms affecting the central nervous system, peripheral nervous system and skeletal muscles, including anosmia and ageusia.
Journal ArticleDOI

The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein alters barrier function in 2D static and 3D microfluidic in-vitro models of the human blood-brain barrier.

TL;DR: Together, these results are the first to show the direct impact that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein could have on brain endothelial cells; thereby offering a plausible explanation for the neurological consequences seen in COVID-19 patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thrombosis risk associated with COVID-19 infection. A scoping review.

TL;DR: A number of pressing issues were identified by this review, including defining the true incidence of VTE in COVID patients, developing algorithms to identify those susceptible to develop thrombotic complications and severe disease, determining the role of biomarkers and/or scoring systems to stratify patients' risk, and designing adequate and feasible diagnostic protocols for PE.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurological Manifestations of COVID-19: A systematic review and current update.

TL;DR: It is reported that headache and anosmia were common neurological manifestations of SARS‐CoV‐2 and the relationship between those patients developing neurological sequelae, their clinical state and any subsequent morbidity and mortality is determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurobiology of COVID-19.

TL;DR: This article reviews the reports that address neurological manifestations in patients with COVID-19, who may present with acute neurological symptoms, even without typical respiratory symptoms such as fever, cough, or shortness of breath, and proposes a basic "NeuroCovid" classification scheme that integrates these concepts.

Clinical course and risk factors for mortality of adult inpatients with COVID-19 in Wuhan, China: a retrospective cohort study.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors used univariable and multivariable logistic regression methods to explore the risk factors associated with in-hospital death, including older age, high SOFA score and d-dimer greater than 1 μg/mL.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large artery ischaemic stroke in severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS).

TL;DR: It is believed that increased vigilance against stroke and other thrombotic complications among critically-ill SARS patients in future outbreaks is needed, especially if treatment such as intravenous immunoglobulin, that increases pro-thrombosis tendency, is contemplated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Erythropoietin as candidate for supportive treatment of severe COVID-19.

TL;DR: Evidence that supports the use of human recombinant erythropoietin (EPO) for ameliorating course and outcome of seriously ill COVID-19 patients is recap here and the research design for a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial including severely affected patients is planned to start shortly.
Journal ArticleDOI

Revisiting the Protein C Pathway: An Opportunity for Adjunctive Intervention in COVID-19?

TL;DR: The objective of this study was to establish a baseline for the evaluation of the Recombinant Human Activated Protein C Worldwide Evaluation in Severe Sepsis.
Journal ArticleDOI

COVID-19-associated pulmonary and cerebral thromboembolic disease

TL;DR: A case of a 79-year-old woman that presented with stroke and was found to have COVID-19 pneumonia and concomitant large burden pulmonary arterial clot is reported.
