A review of neurological side effects of COVID-19 vaccination
AbstractFollowing the COVID-19 virus epidemic, extensive, coordinated international research has led to the rapid development of effective vaccines.  Although vaccines are now considered the best way to achieve collective safety and control mortality, due to the critical situation, these vaccines have been issued the emergency use licenses and some of their potential subsequence side effects have been overlooked. At the same time, there are many reports of side effects after getting a COVID-19 vaccine. According to these reports, vaccination can have an adverse event, especially on nervous system. The most important a...

Association of body mass index with COVID-19-related neurologic sequelae: a retrospective cohort study
This study demonstrates the absence of an association between BMI and neurologic manifestations following acute COVID-19 illness. Prospective studies using standardized data collection tools and direct measures of body fat are warranted to obtain more valid effect estimates.

Mechanisms of COVID-19-induced cerebellitis
Curr Med Res Opin. 2022 Oct 28:1-25. doi: 10.1080/03007995.2022.2141963. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV2 has raised several important health concerns, not least increased mortality and morbidity. SARS-CoV2 can infect the central nervous system via hematogenous or transneuronal routes, acting through different receptors including ACE2, DPP4 and neuropilin 1- and cause several issues, include the focus here, cerebellitis. The cerebellum is an essential part of the CNS located adjacent to the brainstem with a complex micro and macroscopic structure. The cerebellum plays several physiolo...

A Nomogram Model for Predicting Type-2 Myocardial Infarction Induced by Acute Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding
ConclusionThe nomogram was proven to be a useful tool for the risk stratification of T2MI in AUGIB patients, and is helpful for the early identification of AUGIB patients who are prone to T2MI for early intervention, especially in emergency departments and intensive care units.

Neurological Presentations of COVID-19: Characteristic Features in a Case Series of Hospitalized Patients from Abu Dhabi, UAE
CONCLUSION: COVID-19 patients who present with neurological involvement have a higher risk of mortality which is aggravated by older age and higher inflammatory markers. The type of neurological pathology does not seem to influence the risk of mortality.PMID:34423037 | PMC:PMC8376468 | DOI:10.1155/2021/5822259

Neurologic Manifestations of COVID-19
Adv Exp Med Biol. 2021;1318:343-353. doi: 10.1007/978-3-030-63761-3_20.ABSTRACTNeurological manifestations of novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) are reported to occur in as much as 37% of the affected patients. These manifestations range from headache and dizziness to altered mental status and consciousness, anosmia, ageusia, sensory disturbances, and stroke. The mechanisms by which the neurological symptoms arise are not yet determined but may either proceed as an indirect consequence of systemic hyperinflammation or result from the direct invasion of the virus to neural and glial cells. The neural invasion can explain ...

COVID-19-Associated Acute Brain Dysfunction Related to Sepsis
J Clin Med Res. 2021 Feb;13(2):82-91. doi: 10.14740/jocmr4437. Epub 2021 Feb 25.ABSTRACTIn global term, as of November 30, 2020, over 30 million people has been infected by a novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and more than 10,000,000 of them died of acute organ failure. Our reviews have shown that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients with pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) have life-threatening acute brain dysfunction (ABD), ranging from altered mental status/delirium to stupor/coma. Altered mental status/delirium was the most common manifestation of ABD cause...
