Recent Smell Loss Is the Best Predictor of COVID-19 Among Individuals With Recent Respiratory Symptoms

Richard C. Gerkin et al.

Summary: Through a study involving survey, it was found that olfactory loss is a reliable predictor of COVID-19, with smell loss being significantly more pronounced in COVID-19 positive participants. Smell loss during illness is identified as the best predictor of COVID-19 among those with symptoms of respiratory illness.

Clinical Olfactory Working Group consensus statement on the treatment of postinfectious olfactory dysfunction

Alfred B. Addison et al.

Summary: Through systematic review and expert discussion, members of the Clinical Olfactory Working Group overwhelmingly recommended olfactory training as a management option for postinfectious olfactory dysfunction, while no one recommended the use of monocycline antibiotics. The diagnostic role of oral steroids was discussed, with some group members in favor of vitamin A drops as a treatment option. Further research is needed to confirm the efficacy of other therapeutic options.

Six month follow-up of self-reported loss of smell during the COVID-19 pandemic

Claire Hopkins et al.

Summary: This study investigated the recovery of loss of smell and prevalence of parosmia in COVID-19 patients. Some patients continued to experience ongoing symptoms, such as fatigue, at 6 months. The prevalence of parosmia remained high even in patients who reported some recovery of olfactory function.

Six-Month Psychophysical Evaluation of Olfactory Dysfunction in Patients with COVID-19

Paolo Boscolo-Rizzo et al.

Summary: This study found that as the time since virus infection increases, olfactory dysfunction becomes more common among patients, with a high percentage showing persistent dysfunction despite most patients subjectively reporting normal smell.

Six-Month Psychophysical Evaluation of Olfactory Dysfunction in Patients with COVID-19

Paolo Boscolo-Rizzo et al.

Summary: This study prospectively assessed the 6-month prevalence of olfactory dysfunction in subjects with mild-to-moderate COVID-19. Despite most patients reporting a subjectively normal sense of smell, a high percentage of persistent smell dysfunction was observed at 6 months, highlighting a significant long-term rate of smell alteration in patients with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection.
