The COVID-19 pandemic has changed healthcare systems around the world. Medical personnel concentrated on infectious disease management and treatments for non-emergency diseases scheduled surgeries were delayed. We aimed to investigate change in severity of thyroid cancer before after outbreak Korea. collected three years data (2019, 2020, 2021) patients who received surgery a university hospital South Korea grouped them as "Before COVID-19", "After 1-year" 2-years". total number annual outpatients declined significantly both new (1303, 939, 1098 patients) follow-up (5584, 4609, 4739 patients). Clinical characteristics, including age, sex, BMI, preoperative cytology results, surgical extent, final pathologic diagnosis, not COVID-19. However, days from first visit was increased (38.3 ± 32.2, 58.3 105.2, 47.8 124.7 days, p = 0.027). Papillary carcinoma (PTC) showed proportions extrathyroidal extension, lymphatic invasion, vascular cervical lymph node metastasis. Increased tumor size observed with follicular (3.5 2.2, 4.0 1.9, 4.3 2.3 cm, 0.019). After outbreak, poor prognostic factors increased, an increase tumors observed. Due our study being confined single tertiary institution Incheon city, Korea, nationwide studies that include primary clinics should be required identify actual impact treatment.

The SARS-CoV-2 infection causes COVID-19, which has affected approximately six hundred million people globally as of August 2022. Organs and cells harboring angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) surface receptors are the primary targets virus. However, once it enters body through respiratory system, virus can spread hematogenously to infect other organs. Therefore, COVID-19 affects many organs, causing severe long-term complications, even after disease ended, thus worsening quality life. Although is known that system most by infection, organs/systems in short long term. Since simultaneously redesigning diagnostic therapy policies fit damaged organs strongly recommended. Even though pathophysiology problems unknown, frequency cases rises with age existence preexisting symptoms. This study aims update our knowledge multi-organ dysfunction interaction based on clinical theoretical evidence. For this purpose, comprehensively elucidates recent studies effects multiple systems, including respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, renal, nervous, endocrine, reproductive, immune, parts integumentary system. Understanding range atypical symptoms could improve surveillance, limit transmission, avoid additional multi-organ-system problems.

Background Observational studies have reported an association between coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) risk and thyroid dysfunction, but without a clear causal relationship. We attempted to evaluate the function COVID-19 using bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Methods Summary statistics on characteristics of dysfunction (hypothyroidism hyperthyroidism) were obtained from ThyroidOmics Consortium. Genome-wide study for susceptibility its severity Host Genetics Initiative, phenotypes included hospitalization very severe in participants. The inverse variance-weighted (IVW) method was used as primary analysis method, supplemented by weighted-median (WM), MR-Egger, MR-PRESSO methods. Results adjusted Bonferroni correction thresholds. forward MR estimates show no effect severity. reverse found that suggestive factor hypothyroidism (IVW: OR = 1.577, 95% CI 1.065–2.333, P 0.022; WM: 1.527, 1.042–2.240, 0.029), there lightly hospitalized 1.151, 1.004–1.319, 0.042; 1.197, 1.023-1.401, 0.023). There evidence supporting any phenotype hyperthyroidism. Conclusion Our results identified might be potential hypothyroidism. Therefore, patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 should strengthen monitoring function.

Long Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) refers to the persistence of symptoms related infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). This condition is described as persistent and can manifest in various combinations signs symptoms, such fatigue, headache, dyspnea, depression, cognitive impairment, altered perception smells tastes. COVID-19 may be due long-term damage different organs-such lung, brain, kidney, heart-caused by persisting viral-induced inflammation, immune dysregulation, autoimmunity, diffuse endothelial damage, micro thrombosis. In this review, we discuss potential biologically plausible role some vitamins, essential elements, functional foods based on hypothesis that an individual's dietary status play important adjunctive protective immunity against possibly its consequences.

Abstract Since the COVID-19 emergence as a global pandemic in March 2020, more than 5 million SARS-CoV-2-related deaths have been globally documented. As progressed, it became clear that, although infection is mainly characterized respiratory disease, also affects other organs and systems, including thyroid gland. Indeed, emerging evidence suggests that SARS-CoV-2 can act trigger for various disorders, example, subacute thyroiditis (SAT), Grave’s non-thyroidal illness syndrome. The entry of into host cells mediated by ACE2-receptor, making systems with high expression this receptor, such gland, highly vulnerable to COVID-19. Accumulating data propose SAT may be an underestimated manifestation infection. Importantly, if remains unrecognized, or aggravate potential complications insufficiency cardiovascular complications, thus negatively influence prognosis. Moreover, recent case reports, series, systematic reviews highlight side effect vaccination against SARS-CoV-2. present review aims raise awareness SARS-CoV-2-associated- post-vaccination thyroiditis, discuss regarding its pathophysiology, useful information special form related daily clinical practice.
