Vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis post COVID-19 vaccination; a systematic review.

Introduction: The common reported adverse effects of COVID-19 vaccination consist of the injection site's local reaction followed by several non-specific flu-like symptoms. However, rare cases of vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) after viral vector vaccines (ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine, Ad26.COV2 vaccine) have been reported.

Safety and efficacy of antiplatelet use before intravenous thrombolysis for acute Ischemic stroke.

Aim: To study the effects of pretreatment with Antiplatelet (AP) before IV thrombolysis (IVT) on the rate of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and functional outcome in patients with Acute Ischemic stroke (AIS).

Method: In this retrospective study, the medical records and cerebrovascular images of all the patients who received IVT for AIS in our center in a 9.6-year period were reviewed.

COVID-19 and disease-modifying therapies in patients with demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system: A systematic review.

Introduction: The Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic continues to expand across the world. This pandemic has had a significant impact on patients with chronic diseases. Among patients with demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS) or Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD), concerns remain about the potential impact of COVID-19 on these patients given their treatment with immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory therapies.
