INTRODUCTION: Telerehabilitation advanced significantly with the emergence of COVID-19 and recommendation limiting physiotherapist-patient contact time whenever practicable. The effectiveness telerehabilitation on those who had a longer stay in hospital oxygen support following discharge is still under question. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate effects after six weeks pulmonary exercise tolerance, fatigue level, perceived exertion, symptoms depression quality life patients surviving COVID-19. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A quasi-experimental study was conducted 25 post-COVID-19 home environment setting. participants were advised to prepare equipment such as concentrator, B-type cylinder (backup), lengthy tubes, finger pulse oximeter, mini static pedal exerciser, incentive spirometry, weight cuffs or water bottles sandbags. After telerehabilitation, underwent assessments including initial saturation (SPO2), heart rate, peak demand during maintain baseline SPO2, maximum drop recovery SPO2 measured oximeter stopwatch, exertion using Borg Dyspnea Scale, score visual analog scale (VASF), assessed SF-36 questionnaire, mental health status evaluated Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD). One-way repeated measure ANOVA paired t-test used. RESULTS: Significant improvements intervention (F (2.12, 23.13) = 21.0, p<0.05) rate (1.839, 20.23) 43.73, p<0.05), (1.487, 16.36) 8.96, (5, 55) 112.51, (1.755, 19.30) 67.44, (1.798, 19.78) 50.99, (2.467, 27.14) 41.46, achieve 78.89, p<0.05). Six-week post-analysis depressive (mean difference =11.25, p< 0.05) also showed significant improvement =29.92, 0.05). CONCLUSION: Six comprehensive simple improved tolerance exercise, fatigue, for patients.

Long COVID, a name often given to the persistent symptoms following acute SARS-CoV-2 infection, poses multifaceted challenge for health. This review explores intrinsic relationship between comorbidities and autoimmune responses in shaping trajectory of long COVID. Autoantibodies have emerged as significant players COVID-19 pathophysiology, with implications disease severity progression. Studies show immune dysregulation persisting months after marked by activated innate cells high cytokine levels. The presence autoantibodies against various autoantigens suggests their potential comorbid factors Additionally, formation complexes may lead severe progression, highlighting urgency early detection intervention. Furthermore, COVID is highly linked cardiovascular complications neurological symptoms, posing challenges diagnosis management. Multidisciplinary approaches, including vaccination, tailored rehabilitation, pharmacological interventions, are used mitigating COVID’s burden. However, numerous persist, from evolving diagnostic criteria addressing psychosocial impact predicting outcomes. Leveraging AI-based applications holds promise enhancing patient management improving our understanding As research continues unfold, unravelling complexities remains paramount effective intervention care.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) persists throughout the world with over 65 million registered cases of survivors post-COVID-19 sequelae, also known as LongCOVID-19 (LongC). LongC exhibit various symptoms that span multiple organ systems, including nervous system. To search for neurological markers LongC, we investigated soluble biomolecules present in plasma and proteins associated neuronal-enriched extracellular vesicles (nEVs) 33 patients impairment (nLongC), 12 COVID-19 without any (Cov), 28 pre-COVID-19 healthy controls (HC). positive participants were infected between 2020 2022, not hospitalized, vaccinated or unvaccinated before infection.

Abstract With the decline in number of new Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infections, World Health Organization announced end SARS‐CoV‐2 pandemic. However, repercussions this viral pandemic may remain with us for a longer period time, as it has remodeled lives humankind many ways, including social and economic. Of course, its most important on human health level. Long‐coronavirus disease (COVID) or post‐COVID is state which we do not have concrete definition, specific international classification diseases Code, clear diagnostic tools, well‐known effective cures yet. In second article from Intrinsic Factors behind long‐COVID Series, try to link symptoms their causes, starting nervous system. Extracellular vesicles (ECVs) play very complex ramified roles bodies both healthy not‐healthy individuals. ECVs facilitate entry bioactive molecules pathogens into tissues cells system across blood–brain barrier. Based size, quantity, quality cargo, are directly proportional pathological condition severity through intertwined mechanisms that evoke inflammatory immune responses typically accompanied by over variable time periods according type these symptoms.

The mechanisms underlying post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC) are a topic debate. This study examined the presence microRNA (miRNA)-like small RNAs in extracellular fluids and their potential link to PASC by using quantitative stem-loop RT-PCR MiRNA assay. Initially, it was demonstrated that three previously identified miRNA-like RNAs, specifically svRNA 1 2 miR-07a, were significantly expressed infected cells vitro released into supernatant following different variants. Then, expression studied both nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) sera from 24 patients at initial COVID-19 diagnosis (T0) collected 91 193 days post-diagnosis (T1). Notably, 11 out (46%) reported consequences. All NPS samples showed RNA with an altered cytokine network during acute infection, but did not correlate outcomes. Serum had similar statuses, though patients, notably T1, T0, displayed reduced overall positivity compared those without PASC. host target between groups. suggests need for further research its role viral behavior

The efficient transmission of SARS-CoV-2 caused the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected millions people around globe. Despite extensive efforts, specific therapeutic interventions and preventive measures against its consequences, such as long COVID, have not yet been identified due to lack a comprehensive knowledge biology. Therefore, deeper understanding sophisticated strategies employed by bypass host antiviral defense systems is needed. One these inhibition Ras GTPase-activating protein-binding protein (GAP SH3-binding or G3BP)-dependent immune response nucleocapsid (N) protein. This disrupts formation stress granules (SGs), are crucial for defense. By preventing SG formation, virus enhances replication evades host's response, leading increased disease severity. Given involvement G3BP1 in ability interact with viral proteins, along role N virus, we hypothesize that proteins may potential pathogenesis COVID. current direct evidence linking their interactions functions suggest possible connection warrants further investigation.
