Long COVID has been studied as different sequelae that some individuals can develop after the acute phase of disease. Persistent symptoms such dry cough, fatigue, and dyspnea remain six months COVID-19 cure. Others lung fibrosis, kidney injury, thrombotic risk also are observed. Here, a deep review each human organ system infected by virus was performed aiming to show how molecules expression cell signaling induce organism cure or injuries and, subsequently sequelae.

Coronavirus disease is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The virus first appeared in Wuhan (China) December 2019 and has spread globally. Till now, it affected 269 million people with 5.3 deaths 224 countries territories. With emergence of variants like Omicron, COVID-19 cases grew exponentially, thousands deaths. general symptoms include fever, sore throat, cough, lung infections, and, severe cases, acute respiratory distress syndrome, sepsis, death. predominantly affects lung, but can also affect other organs such as brain, heart, gastrointestinal system. It observed that 75 % hospitalized patients have at least one associated comorbidity. most common reported comorbidities are hypertension, NDs, diabetes, cancer, endothelial dysfunction, CVDs.

Abstract Pre‐existing cardiovascular disease (CVD) increases the morbidity and mortality of COVID‐19 is strongly associated with poor outcomes. However, SARS‐CoV‐2 infection can also trigger de novo acute chronic disease. Acute cardiac complications include arrhythmia, myocarditis heart failure, which are significantly higher in‐hospital mortality.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), instigated by the zoonotic Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), rapidly transformed from an outbreak in Wuhan, China, into a widespread global pandemic. A significant post-infection condition, known as 'long- COVID-19' (or simply COVID'), emerges substantial subset of patients, manifesting with constellation over 200 reported symptoms that span multiple organ systems. This also 'post-acute sequelae SARS-CoV-2 infection' (PASC), presents perplexing clinical picture far-reaching implications, often persisting long after acute phase.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a deadly pandemic that has affected millions of people worldwide, is associated with cardiovascular complications, including venous and arterial thromboembolic events. Viral spike proteins, in fact, may promote the release prothrombotic inflammatory mediators. Vaccines, coding for protein, are primary means preventing COVID-19. However, some unexpected thrombotic events at unusual sites, most frequently located cerebral sinus but also splanchnic, thrombocytopenia, have emerged subjects who received adenovirus-based vaccines, especially fertile women. This clinical entity was soon recognized as new syndrome, named vaccine-induced immune probably caused by cross-reacting anti-platelet factor-4 antibodies activating platelets. For this reason, regulatory agencies various countries restricted use vaccines to age groups. prevailing opinion experts, however, risk developing COVID-19, clearly outweighs potential risk. point-of-view aims providing narrative review epidemiological issues, data, pathogenetic hypotheses thrombosis linked both COVID-19 its helping medical practitioners offer up-to-date evidence-based counseling their often-alarmed patients acute or chronic
