Relationship of Atherosclerotic Plaque Structure with the History of COVID-19 in Patients Undergoing Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography
This study aimed to examine the relationship between atherosclerotic coronary plaque structure and COVID-19. This retrospective cohort comprised 1269 consecutive patients who had coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) for suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) between July 2020 and April 2021. The type of atherosclerotic plaque was the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes included the severity of coronary stenosis as determined via the Coronary Artery Disease-Reporting and Data System (CAD-RADS) classification and the coronary artery calcium (CAC) score. To reveal the relationship between the history of COVID-19 ...

Case Reports on Black Fungus of the Gastrointestinal Tract: A New Complication in COVID-19 Patients
Korean J Gastroenterol. 2023 May 25;81(5):221-225. doi: 10.4166/kjg.2023.015.ABSTRACTGastrointestinal mucormycosis is a rare disease with a significant mortality rate, even when promptly diagnosed and treated. An unusual complication was observed in India during the second wave of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Two incidences of gastric mucormycosis were found. A 53-year-old male patient with a history of COVID-19 one month earlier came into the intensive care unit. After admission, the patient developed hematemesis, which was initially treated with blood transfusions and digital subtraction angiography embolization....
