Chronic Fatigue and Postexertional Malaise in People Living With Long COVID: An Observational Study

Rosie Twomey et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the severity of fatigue and postexertional malaise in people living with long COVID. The findings suggest that long COVID is characterized by clinically relevant chronic fatigue and significant challenges related to postexertional symptom exacerbation. It is important to monitor and report these symptoms in clinical practice and interventions for people with long COVID.

Analysis of post COVID-19 condition and its overlap with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome

Olga A. Sukocheva et al.

Summary: COVID-19 infection can lead to various pathologies and complications, exacerbating existing conditions in multiple body systems. Besides the respiratory organs, adverse effects of COVID-19 have been observed in the nervous, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal/metabolic, immune, and other systems. The post-COVID-19 condition shows overlapping symptoms with ME/CFS.

Assessing the impact of COVID-19 at 1-year using the SF-12 questionnaire: Data from the Anticipate longitudinal cohort study

Brendan O'Kelly et al.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and predictors of post-COVID-19 syndrome (PoCS) in patients with long COVID. The results showed that patients with PoCS had lower HRQoL scores during a one-year follow-up, and their scores did not significantly improve. Lower HRQoL scores and higher resting heart rate can be used as predictors of PoCS risk at one year after COVID-19.

SARS-CoV-2 is associated with changes in brain structure in UK Biobank

Gwenaelle Douaud et al.

Summary: Through long-term observation of participants' MRI images, it was found that COVID-19 infection is associated with abnormal brain changes, including a reduction in gray matter thickness in the orbitofrontal cortex and parahippocampal gyrus, greater changes in markers of tissue damage in regions functionally connected to the primary olfactory cortex, and a greater reduction in global brain size. Infected individuals also showed significant cognitive decline.

Altered Pain in the Brainstem and Spinal Cord of Fibromyalgia Patients During the Anticipation and Experience of Experimental Pain

Gabriela Ioachim et al.

Summary: Chronic pain associated with fibromyalgia (FM) affects a large portion of the population, but the underlying mechanisms leading to this altered pain are still poorly understood. Recent evidence suggests that the changes in pain processing in FM may be linked to autonomic and homeostatic dysregulation in the central nervous system, thus requiring further investigation in the brainstem and spinal cord.

Forrest J. Ragozzino et al.

Summary: TRPM3 plays a significant role in controlling spontaneous glutamate release in vagal afferents and serves as an additional temperature-sensitive calcium conductance. Its genetic deletion does not affect synchronous or asynchronous glutamate release, indicating its specific role in regulating temperature-driven neurotransmission in autonomic reflex function.

Summary: The study demonstrates the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in the nasopharynx and brain, suggesting the virus may enter the CNS through the olfactory mucosa. The virus utilizes the neural-mucosal interface in the olfactory mucosa to penetrate the nervous system, affecting various neuroanatomical areas, including the primary respiratory and cardiovascular control center.

Persistent Brainstem Dysfunction in Long-COVID: A Hypothesis

Shin Jie Yong

Summary: Long-COVID is a postviral illness that can affect survivors of COVID-19, potentially caused by long-term tissue damage, viral persistence, and dysfunction of the brainstem. The brainstem plays a crucial role in manifesting symptoms, including respiratory, cardiovascular, and neurological functions, thus potentially linking it to long-COVID.

Summary: Ion channels play a crucial role in regulating neural processes in the brain, and disruptions in their functions can lead to various neurological disorders. TRP ion channels are key players in the development and physiological functions of the central nervous system, influencing processes like neurite growth and synaptic plasticity. TRPM3, a non-selective cation channel, is emerging as a new player in the brain with potential roles in neuropathological processes.

Long COVID or post-COVID-19 syndrome: putative pathophysiology, risk factors, and treatments

Shin Jie Yong

Summary: Long COVID or post-COVID-19 syndrome is a poorly understood condition that affects survivors with symptoms like fatigue, dyspnoea, cognitive impairments, and more. The pathophysiology, risk factors, and treatments are still lacking in literature, but potential treatments may include rehabilitation training and repurposed drugs from similar conditions. Further research is needed to substantiate risk factors and treatment options.
