COVID-19-Associated Coagulopathy: Role of Vitamins D and K
Curr Pharm Biotechnol. 2022 May 27. doi: 10.2174/1389201023666220527110455. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRecent reports show coagulopathy as a potential complication and poorer outcome of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), especially in those with comorbid conditions such as diabetes and hypertension as thrombosis could result in stroke and heart attacks. Indeed, cardiovascular complications in COVID-19 accounts for 40% of mortality. Although there is no standard treatment protocol or guidelines for COVID-19, it is a common practice to use anti-inflammatory corticosteroids and anti-coagulants, especially for severe COVI...

Incidence of newly diagnosed diabetes after Covid-19
Conclusions/interpretationCovid-19 confers an increased risk for type 2 diabetes. If confirmed, these results support the active monitoring of glucose dysregulation after recovery from mild forms of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection.Graphical abstract

Concurrent Cerebral, Splenic, and Renal Infarction in a Patient With COVID-19 Infection
Conclusion: In this case, a patient with multiple thrombotic events in the acute phase of COVID-19 infection, the delimitation of the inflammatory state through analytical markers as D-dimer helped to individualize the antithrombotic treatment (full anticoagulation or anticoagulation at intermediate doses plus antiplatelet treatment as used in our patient) and its duration. However, more data are needed to better understand the mechanisms and treatment of stroke in patients with COVID-19 infection.
