Rehabilitation of Rare Neurological Complications of COVID-19 Infection in Health Resort Settings.

There is increasing evidence of neurological involvement in patients with coronavirus disease. Reports of neurological manifestations include altered mental status, Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) and its forms, encephalopathy, psychosis, neurocognitive (dementia) syndrome, ischemic strokes, intracerebral hemorrhage, and acute transverse myelitis. We present three patients with rare neurological manifestations of the COVID-19 disease, with a special focus on rehabilitation in a health resort setting.

The Role of Dyslipidemia in Atherogenesis in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients.

Background: To evaluate atherosclerotic changes in carotid arteries (CCA) in uremic patients before and after 18 months of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) treatment, and to evaluate the impact of dyslipidemia and CAPD treatment on vascular remodeling.

Materials And Methods: We conducted a longitudinal, prospective study during 2020 and 2021 at the Clinic for Nephrology, Clinical Center University of Sarajevo. Patients with end-stage renal disease were included and were followed during 18 months of CAPD treatment.

Relation between thyroid hormonal status, neutrophillymphocyte ratio and left ventricular systolic function in patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Aim To examine a relation of thyroid function, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) with left ventricular function measured through the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with acute myocardial infarction treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods This prospective research involved 160 consecutive patients with acute myocardial infarction. Patients were divided into those with normal thyroid hormone status (n=80) and those with hypothyroidism (newly diagnosed) (n=80).

Relationship between depression and quality of life after myocardial infarction.

Aim To examine the prevalence of depression in patients after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), as well as the relationship between the depression and quality of life. Methods The survey was conducted via sociodemographic questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Short Form 36 Health Survey questionnaire (SF-36). The result of SF-36 is expressed in subscales that make up the health status profile, i.
