Abstract Objectives: to determine the clinical and epidemiological profile of long post-COVID syndrome (LPCS) quality life among female survivors compared males after hospitalization for COVID-19 in city Recife, Brazil. Methods: a prospective cohort study analyzed demographic data during hospitalization, as well LPCS questionnairewhereasdata was collected by telecare at three, sixand 12 months hospital discharge. Logistic regression used explore association between variables each dimension questionnaire. Results: 887 patients were included. At end months, women more frequently reported with (p<0.001). Regarding life, tended worsen over time all domains men: mobility domain (28.4% versus 9.3%, p<0.05), personal care (14.8% 5.6%; usual activities (30.8% 13.1%, p < 0.05), pain/discomfort (29% 16.9%, p<0.05) anxiety/depression (43.8% 33.3%, p<0.05). Conclusion: frequency increased worsened both genders until first year discharge, especially women.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global population. infection, caused by SARS-CoV-2, presents with variety of clinical manifestations, from asymptomatic cases to more severe forms, including neurological symptoms, such as fatigue, weakness, brain fog, paresthesias, dysautonomia, anosmia, and dysgeusia. Additionally, disease is associated long COVID syndrome, in which there persistence effects symptoms acute phase. In recent years literature shown relevant data COVID, but still need deepen knowledge about these term manifestations. Thus, present study aimed describe main sequelae resulting SARS-CoV-2 infection non-hospitalized population during phase disease, gathering scientific evidence through an integrative review prevalence patient profile, duration severity sequelae, risk factors, comorbidities, possible nervous system structural damage. PubMed/Medline database was used descriptors and, at end screening process predefined inclusion exclusion criteria, 22 studies were included. A group identified: myalgia, dysgeusia, memory alterations, olfactory dysfunction, dizziness, pain. Most patients presented multiple that lasted for than one year quality life. factors dyslipidemia, age, ethnicity, muscle/ joint pain, sex. This highlights importance further its etiology, diagnosis, follow-up, treatments.

The pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is an emerging crisis affecting the public health system. clinical features of COVID-19 can range from asymptomatic state to and multiple organ dysfunction. Although some hematological biochemical parameters are altered during moderate COVID-19, there still a lack tools combine these predict outcome patient with COVID-19. Thus, this study aimed at employing patients diagnosed in order build machine learning algorithms for predicting COVID mortality or survival. Patients included had diagnosis SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed RT-PCR measurements were performed three different time points upon hospital admission. Among evaluated, ones that stand out most important T1 point (urea, lymphocytes, glucose, basophils age), which could be possible biomarkers severity patients. This shows urea parameter best classifies rises over time, making it crucial analyte used outcome. In optimal medically interpretable prediction presented each point. It was found paramount variable all points. However, importance other variables changes point, demonstrating dynamic approach effective patient’s prediction. All all, use defining tool laboratory monitoring prediction, may bring benefits future pandemics newly reemerging variants concern.

Abstract Objective This pilot examined the effect of online peer support on mental health problems among individuals with post-acute sequelae COVID-2019 (PASC). Methods A single-arm pre-post design consisting eight sessions 1 h per week three to six participants and two facilitators group was performed. Participants were recruited from communities, social media, medical clinics for PASC between May August 2023. The degrees depression, anxiety, loneliness, withdrawal, self-esteem measured pre- post-intervention. Participants’ statements during analyzed using thematic analyses. Results Of 18 participants, 3 dropped out interventions, 17 (including 2 who out) completed post-intervention questionnaires. Depression severity significantly decreased in paired t-test linear mixed model. following interactions extracted: conveying same feelings, dealing difficulties, showing empathy, enhancing atmosphere, adapting suit conditions. Impressions extracted participating interventions included feelings emotional support, a sense bonding, changes perspective, behaviors or new actions through participation, inadequacy sessions, adverse effects associated participation. Conclusion Online may be helpful treating depression PASC.
