Purpose: Poor sleep quality, mood disorders, and vitamin D deficiency are common in stroke. We investigated the association between serum vitamin D levels and pre-stroke sleep quality and the occurrence of poststroke depression (PSD) and poststroke anxiety (PSA) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS).
Methods: This prospective cross-sectional study included hospitalized patients with AIS and age- and sex-matched controls.
Objectives: Data are limited regarding the relationship of neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte/lymphocyte ratio (MLR), and platelet/ lymphocyte ratio (PLR) with neurological symptoms (NS) in COVID-19 patients. This study is the first to assess the utility of the NLR, MLR, and PLR for predicting COVID-19 severity in infected patients with NS.
Materials And Methods: Consecutive 192 PCR-positive COVID-19 patients with NS were included in this cross-sectional and prospective study.
A wide spectrum of neurological symptoms (NS) has been described in patients with COVID-19. We examined the plasma levels of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and neurofilament light chain (NFL) together, as neuronal damage markers, and their relationships with clinical severity in patients with NS at acute COVID-19. A total of 20 healthy controls and 59 patients with confirmed COVID-19 were enrolled in this pilot prospective study.
