A neonatal case of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis with intrauterine onset after COVID-19 infection during pregnancy: Cause or coincidence?
Coronavirus 19 disease (COVID-19) is known to predispose patients to increased thrombotic events and the risk is higher in pregnancy which is already a hypercoagulable state. Vertical transmission of the disease during pregnancy was neglected according to data early in the pandemic, however, despite conflicting results from different studies, there is an increasing suspicion of vertical transmission with the rise of new fetal and neonatal cases and perinatal transmission can be higher than expected.

Is a high chest CT severity score a risk factor for an increased incidence of long-term neuroimaging findings after COVID-19?
From the outbreak of the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on 17 November 2019 in Wuhan to 2 November 2022, the total number of cases was reported as 617,879,854 and the total number of deaths was reported as 6,546,448 worldwide 1. In Turkey, the first case was reported on March 11, 2020. Until November 2, 2022, the total number of cases was 16,873,793 and the total number of deaths was 101,139 1. Today, there is a significant decrease in the number of cases and deaths as a result of vaccination and mutations in the virus.

COVID-19 independently predicts poor outcomes in Acute Ischemic Stroke- Insights from a multicenter study from Pakistan and United Arab Emirates
Ischemic stroke associated with coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) has been well recognized by now. Few studies have compared COVID related versus unrelated strokes. We intend to report on a large group of Asian patients from two countries and compare COVID with non-COVID strokes admitted during the same time period.

SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Increased Risk for Pediatric Stroke
There is an increased risk of stroke in adults with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (coronavirus disease 2019 [COVID-19]) infection, but whether there is a similar association with stroke in children is unclear. Our objective was to determine whether there is a correlation between COVID-19 infection, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), and pediatric ischemic stroke.

Remote constraint induced therapy of the upper extremity (ReCITE): A feasibility study protocol
DiscussionThe COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a rapid transition to delivering telehealth. The proposed study will investigate the feasibility and acceptability of delivering a complex intervention via telehealth to stroke survivors at home, and the support that therapists and patients require for delivery. The findings of the study will be used to inform whether a larger, randomized controlled trial is feasible.

A case report: Upper limb recovery from stroke related to SARS-CoV-2 infection during an intervention with a brain-computer interface
COVID-19 may increase the risk of acute ischemic stroke that can cause a loss of upper limb function, even in patients with low risk factors. However, only individual cases have been reported assessing different degrees of hospitalization outcomes. Therefore, outpatient recovery profiles during rehabilitation interventions are needed to better understand neuroplasticity mechanisms required for upper limb motor recovery. Here, we report the progression of physiological and clinical outcomes during upper limb rehabilitation of a 41-year-old patient, without any stroke risk factors, which presented a stroke on the same day as...

Vaccine associated benign headache and cutaneous hemorrhage after ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine: A cohort study
Fatal complications have occurred after vaccination with ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, a vaccine against Covid-19. Vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) with severe outcome is characterized by venous thrombosis, predominantly in cerebral veins, thrombocytopenia and anti-PF4/polyanion antibodies. Prolonged headaches and cutaneous hemorrhages, frequently observed after the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine, have therefore caused anxiety among vaccinees. We investigated whether these symptoms represent a mild form of VITT, with a potential for aggravation, e.g.

COVID-19 Continuous-EEG Case Series: A Descriptive Study
Conclusions: In this observational case series of 16 patients with COVID-19 who were monitored with continuous video-EEG, most patients experienced a nonspecific encephalopathy. Clinical seizures and electrographic status epilepticus were the second most commonly observed neurological problem.

Spectrum of Neurological Manifestations of COVID-19 Data from a Tertiary Care Hospital
Conclusions: COVID-19 usually presents as a respiratory disease. The neurological manifestations of COVID-19 are not uncommon. One should be aware of a wide spectrum of neurological signs and symptoms of COVID-19 for early diagnosis and treatment for preventing mortality and morbidity.

COVID-19 and Stroke Trends in A Tertiary Care Center from South India -Our Monsoon Experience
Conclusion: Our study was a hypothesis-generating study with a limited number of patients. This study has reconfirmed the higher severity of the stroke, with a higher mRS score and mortality during the pandemic, especially among COVID-19-positive stroke patients.

The mucormycosis and Stroke: the learning curve during the second COVID-19 pandemic
Background The Angio-invasive Rhino-orbito-cerebral mucormycosis (ROCM) producing strokes is a less explored entity. Our hospital, a stroke-ready one, had an opportunity to manage mucormycosis when it was identified as the nodal center for mucormycosis management. We are sharing our experiences and mistakes in managing the cerebrovascular manifestations of ROCM.Methods We conducted a prospective observational study during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic from 1st May 2021 to 30th September 2021, where consecutive patients aged more than 18 years with microbiologically confirmed cases of ROCM were included.

Surgical Masks May Hide Neurological Diagnoses
We present a case that highlights one of the many ways in which the pandemic has negatively impacted the care of the non-COVID patient. A patient presented to the ED with a chief complaint of diffuse weakness and a new-onset cough on awakening. His daughter noted that he was slurring his words. An emergency medicine resident evaluated him, ordered laboratory studies, and decided to monitor the patient. The same resident later noted the patient veering to the left when walking, prompting a more detailed neurological examination. On removing the patient ’s facemask, a left lower facial weakness was evident. The resident ca...
