Immune-mediated neurological syndromes in SARS-CoV-2-infected patients

Antoine Guilmot et al.

Summary: Evidence of immune-mediated neurological syndromes in COVID-19 patients is limited. However, this study found that in a small subset of patients with neurological manifestations, CSF pleocytosis and detection of anti-GD1b and anti-Caspr2 antibodies may suggest secondary autoimmunity potentially induced by SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Lifestyle Changes Related to Eating Habits, Physical Activity, and Weight Status During COVID-19 Quarantine in Italy and Some European Countries

Arianna Catucci et al.

Summary: COVID-19, a novel human coronavirus disease, has become the fifth documented pandemic since the Spanish flu in 1918, with no approved drugs by the FDA. The only strategy against the virus is implementing measures like isolation, quarantine, social distancing, and hygiene. Quarantine has proven effective in combating the virus spread but has led to significant lifestyle changes, particularly in eating habits, physical activity, and weight gain.

Summary: During lockdown, people tended to increase the number of meals and snacks but reduced the consumption of healthy food while increasing the consumption of unhealthy food. The long-term effects of these dietary changes during the pandemic are still unknown and require further investigation.

Autonomic dysfunction in 'long COVID': rationale, physiology and management strategies

Melanie Dani et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented morbidity, mortality, and disruption, with a new syndrome known as 'long COVID' emerging among survivors. This syndrome, characterized by debilitating symptoms like breathlessness and palpitations, may be related to autonomic nervous system disruption post-infection. Physicians should recognize and support individuals with 'long COVID' symptoms, with a focus on managing the underlying impaired autonomic physiology.

Modulatory Effects of Physical Activity Levels on Immune Responses and General Clinical Functions in Adult Patients with Mild to Moderate SARS-CoV-2 Infections-A Protocol for an Observational Prospective Follow-Up Investigation: Fit-COVID-19 Study

Fabio Santos Lira et al.

Summary: This study aims to address gaps in scientific knowledge on COVID-19 by conducting a prospective observational cohort study focused on immune, inflammatory, and metabolic markers, as well as clinical and mental health. It will explore the effects of physical activity and body composition on individual trajectories. Mechanistic evidence will be provided through in-vitro assays, analyzing the potential long-term benefits on mental and cardiovascular health.

Physical inactivity is associated with a higher risk for severe COVID-19 outcomes: a study in 48 440 adult patients

Robert Sallis et al.

Summary: A study found that COVID-19 patients who were consistently inactive had a higher risk of severe outcomes, while patients consistently meeting physical activity guidelines had a lower risk of hospitalization, ICU admission, and death related to COVID-19. This suggests that physical activity plays a positive role in reducing severe COVID-19 outcomes.

Long-COVID postural tachycardia syndrome: an American Autonomic Society statement

Summary: COVID-19 has had a devastating impact on the health and economy of human civilization, with many patients developing chronic symptoms such as POTS, known as Long-COVID. Managing Long-COVID POTS will require a significant infusion of healthcare resources and research investment. The American Autonomic Society outlines the scope of the problem and the necessary resources and research to properly address the impact of Long-COVID POTS.

COVID-19 Outcome Relates With Circulating BDNF, According to Patient Adiposity and Age

Luciele Guerra Minuzzi et al.

Summary: The study showed that BDNF levels can predict the need for intensive care in COVID-19 patients, particularly in those over 60 years of age. Leptin and adiponectin concentrations were not associated with patient outcomes, while the BDNF/adiponectin ratio was closely linked to worsened prognosis.

Alteration of Autonomic Nervous System Is Associated With Severity and Outcomes in Patients With COVID-19

Yuchen Pan et al.

Summary: Assessing autonomic function in COVID-19 patients, it was found that HRV was associated with disease severity. Severe patients showed consistent trends between HRV parameters and laboratory indices, and those without improved HRV parameters required longer recovery time.

COVID-19 is getting on our nerves: sympathetic neural activity and haemodynamics in young adults recovering from SARS-CoV-2

Nina L. Stute et al.

Summary: SARS-CoV-2 infection may lead to increased resting sympathetic activity, decreased pain perception, and altered physiological stress responses in young adults. If similar autonomic dysregulation is present in older adults, there may be significant adverse implications for cardiovascular health.

Association of physical activity levels and the prevalence of COVID-19-associated hospitalization

Francis Ribeiro de Souza et al.

Summary: The study found that sufficient physical activity levels were associated with a lower prevalence of COVID-19-related hospitalizations, with at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity physical activity per week associated with a 34.3% reduction in prevalence.

Changes in physical activity and sedentary behaviours from before to during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown: a systematic review

Stephanie Stockwell et al.

Summary: The review found that during the COVID-19 lockdowns, most studies reported decreases in physical activity and increases in sedentary behaviours across different populations. Therefore, public health strategies should focus on creating and implementing interventions that promote safe physical activity and reduce sedentary behaviour in case of future lockdowns.
