Neurological Consequences of COVID-19: A Curious Case of Delayed Onset Guillain-Barre.

SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for causing the COVID-19 pandemic and over 4 million deaths globally. Clinical symptoms range from asymptomatic infection, viral syndrome, and pneumonia, to acute respiratory distress syndrome. Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), an acute demyelinating inflammatory polyneuropathy, may be a manifestation of infection and must be recognized quickly by clinicians to avoid neurological deterioration in these patients.

Patient perspectives of an individualized diabetes care management plan.

Purpose: This cross sectional study examines patients' knowledge, attitudes and beliefs about a diabetic care management plan (DCMP) that was developed to provide patient education on diabetes guidelines and display individual diabetic core measures. Secondary objectives included a comparison of diabetic core measures [hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP, DBP), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and urine microalbumin (Um)] before and after DCMP implementation. We hypothesize this tool will contribute to patients' awareness of current disease status, diabetes knowledge and diabetic core value improvement over time.
