Jiawen Deng et al.

Summary: Evidence from previous coronavirus outbreaks indicates that COVID-19 patients are at risk of developing psychiatric disorders such as depression, anxiety, and sleep disturbances. A systematic review and meta-analysis found high prevalence rates of depression (45%), anxiety (47%), and sleep disturbances (34%) in COVID-19 patients. Prevalence estimates varied based on screening tools used, highlighting the need for more studies on mental well-being in COVID-19 patients.

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.

Effectiveness of Telerehabilitation in Physical Therapy: A Rapid Overview

Pamela Seron et al.

Summary: Despite contradictory results, telerehabilitation in physical therapy shows promise in improving conditions such as osteoarthritis, low-back pain, hip and knee replacement, and multiple sclerosis, as well as in cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation settings. Further high-quality clinical trials and systematic reviews are needed to provide clearer evidence for professionals to make informed decisions. This will ultimately lead to better clinical outcomes for patients, both during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond.

Long-Term Impact of COVID-19: A Systematic Review of the Literature and Meta-Analysis

Diana C. Sanchez-Ramirez et al.

Summary: The study found that post-COVID-19 patients may experience persistent respiratory symptoms, fatigue, decreased functional capacity, and decreased quality of life up to 6 months after infection. However, most patients have returned to work or reported no work impairment. Further research is needed to understand the long-term effects of COVID-19 beyond 6 months and how to effectively manage them.
