First-Ever Ischemic Stroke In Covid-19: How Is It Different? - A Stroke Registry-Based Study From South India
Acta Neurol Taiwan. 2023 Dec 30;32(4):190-201.ABSTRACTStroke associated with COVID-19 has been characterised in several multicentre retrospective studies and meta-analyses. However, they did not distinguish first-ever ischemic strokes (F-AIS). Therefore, we aimed to study the incidence, clinical characteristics, and outcomes of a cohort of F-AIS associated with COVID-19 during the first wave of the pandemic and compare this cohort with those of F-AIS without COVID-19, COVID-19 without stroke. We also sought to compare the stroke admissions and mechanisms during the pandemic and immediate prepandemic periods.PMID:37723911

Neurological manifestations of SARS-CoV-2: complexity, mechanism and associated disorders
CONCLUSIONS: SARS-CoV-2 can lead to neurological complications, such as cerebrovascular manifestations, motor movement complications, and cognitive decline. COVID-19 infection can result in cerebrovascular symptoms and diseases, such as strokes and thrombosis. The virus can affect the neural system, disrupt cognitive function and cause neurological disorders. To combat the epidemic, it is crucial to repurpose drugs currently in use quickly and develop novel therapeutics.PMID:37649125 | PMC:PMC10469568 | DOI:10.1186/s40001-023-01293-2

The Pandemic of Coronary Artery Disease in the Sub-Saharan Africa: What Clinicians Need to Know
AbstractPurpose of ReviewCardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally with an accelerated increase in CVD ‑related death in Africa and other low‑middle‑income countries. This review is aimed at highlighting the burden of coronary artery disease CAD, its peculiarities as well as challenges of management in sub-Saharan Africa.Recent FindingsRecent data revealed a shift from high incidence of CVDs associated with poverty and malnutrition (such as rheumatic heart disease) initially, which are now falling, to rising incidence of other non-communicable CVDs (such as hypertension, c...
