The COVID-19 Yorkshire Rehabilitation Scale (C19-YRS): Application and psychometric analysis in a post-COVID-19 syndrome cohort

Nick Preston et al.

Summary: This study assessed the psychometric properties of the COVID-19 Yorkshire Rehabilitation Scale (C19-YRS) in patients with post-coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) syndrome (PCS). The results showed that the C19-YRS had high internal consistency, met standard psychometric criteria, and demonstrated potential predictive abilities as a measure of PCS.

Post-COVID syndrome symptoms, functional disability, and clinical severity phenotypes in hospitalized and nonhospitalized individuals: A cross-sectional evaluation from a community COVID rehabilitation service

Manoj Sivan et al.

Summary: This study examined the clinical severity phenotypes of post-COVID Syndrome patients and identified three distinct severity phenotypes (mild, moderate, severe) which could help stratify patients for targeted interventions and planning of care pathways. Symptoms were strongly positively correlated with functional difficulty scores and moderately negatively correlated with overall health, highlighting the need for personalized treatment strategies.

Long-Term Sequelae of COVID-19: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of One-Year Follow-Up Studies on Post-COVID Symptoms

Qing Han et al.

Summary: Emerging evidence suggests that COVID-19 survivors may experience persistent symptoms for at least 12 months, including fatigue, dyspnea, arthromyalgia, depression, anxiety, memory loss, concentration difficulties, and insomnia. Female patients and those with more severe initial illness are more likely to suffer from long-term sequelae after one year.

Therapeutic implications of ongoing alveolar viral replication in COVID-19

Dennis McGonagle et al.

Summary: In patients with moderate-to-severe COVID-19 pneumonia, immunomodulatory therapy has overall benefits, while immunosuppression is not proven to be beneficial in mild cases or critical cases. Timely immunosuppression may have a window of opportunity, but caution should be exercised regarding RNAaemia. Immunomodulatory therapy can inhibit excessive immune responses and immunothrombosis.

Summary: Sustained hypercoagulability and endotheliopathy persist in convalescent COVID-19 patients for several months after recovery. Hemostatic, endothelial, and inflammatory abnormalities are still detectable in these patients compared to their pre-recovery state. This finding is important for long-term anticoagulation therapy and follow-up of recovered patients.

Summary: This study analyzed the US Department of Veterans Affairs national healthcare databases to investigate the occurrence of Long COVID and death risk after breakthrough SARS-CoV-2 infection. The findings showed that vaccination significantly reduced the risk of death and post-acute sequelae but did not eliminate them completely. These results underscore the importance of further research on prevention and post-acute care for breakthrough infections.

Summary: This systematic review investigates the effectiveness of rehabilitation interventions for individuals with post-acute COVID-19 syndrome (PACS). The study suggests that rehabilitation can improve dyspnea, anxiety, and kinesiophobia, although results on pulmonary function are inconsistent. However, improvements were detected in muscle strength, walking capacity, sit-to-stand performance, and quality of life. Further high-quality studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Summary: With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, a study was conducted to characterize the longitudinal evolution of health outcomes in hospitalized survivors of COVID-19 over a period of 2 years. The study found that although most survivors recovered and returned to work within 2 years, a significant proportion of them experienced persistent symptoms and health problems. These findings emphasize the need for further research and interventions to understand and reduce the risk of long-term COVID-19.

Summary: This study aimed to describe recovery one year after hospital discharge for COVID-19 and identify potential therapeutic targets by analyzing inflammatory profiles. The results showed that a significant proportion of patients did not fully recover one year after discharge. Female sex, obesity, and invasive mechanical ventilation were associated with lower likelihood of full recovery. Inflammation and obesity may be treatable traits that need further investigation in clinical trials.

Summary: This study analyzed primary care data to investigate the symptoms of long COVID after COVID-19 infection and found differences in symptom presentation between hospitalized and community infections. Diagnosis or referral for long COVID was associated with higher odds of presenting prespecified symptoms, and mental health sequelae were more common after hospital infections. Additionally, the study found that all-cause mortality in long COVID patients was associated with age, sex, and multimorbidity score, while vaccination was associated with reduced odds of mortality.

Postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC) affect a significant portion of coronavirus disease 2019 survivors, with a wide range of symptoms and complications. Data on PASC risk factors and vulnerable populations are limited, but evidence suggests a disproportionate impact on certain groups.

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

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.

A study explores the lived experience of 43 healthcare professionals with long COVID, who offer valuable expertise for service design. Quality standards, including equity, ease of access, minimal patient care burden, clinical responsibility, a multidisciplinary approach, and patient involvement, are proposed for a potential care pathway model to improve care for long COVID patients.

Analysis of data from over 4,000 COVID-19 cases revealed that long COVID is more common in older individuals, those with higher body mass index, and females. Experiencing more than five symptoms in the first week of illness was associated with long COVID. A simple model showed promise in distinguishing between short and long COVID cases early in the disease.

Primary care providers have a unique opportunity to care for vulnerable long COVID patients and policy measures should focus on strengthening primary care, improving data quality, and addressing various forms of inequities.

Summary: During the COVID-19 pandemic, it is crucial to understand the prevalence of sleep dysfunction and psychological distress, identify risk factors, and explore effective management strategies. Evidence suggests that a significant proportion of COVID-19 patients experience sleep disturbances and psychological distress, with certain factors increasing the risk of sleep dysfunction. Additionally, the link between sleep deprivation, susceptibility to viral infections, and psychosocial wellbeing in relation to COVID-19 is discussed in this review, along with the presence and role of sleep apnea in infected individuals.

There is a stronger evidence base for the diagnostic accuracy of the 1MSTST in chronic lung diseases, but safety concerns may arise due to the test's intensity in remote consultations or unstable patients. Urgent evaluation of the less strenuous 40-step walk test is required.

Possible factors contributing to this include lack of patient presentation, differing diagnostic thresholds among clinicians and patients, and challenges with the design and communication of diagnostic codes. It is recommended to increase awareness of diagnostic codes to support research and service planning, and to conduct qualitative surveys to better understand clinicians' perspectives on diagnosis.
