Special considerations and pitfalls for intracerebral bleeding followed COVID-19 case treated by ECMO.

COVID-19, or coronavirus infection, is an acute respiratory illness caused by the corona virus that can develop into a life-threatening form of ARDS. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a highly effective treatment for life-threatening instances. One of the many complications associated with ECMO was bleeding.

Potential Association between Subclinical Hypothyroidism and Childhood Migraine.

Background and Objectives: Migraine is caused by genetic susceptibility that is triggered by environmental as well as biological factors, and it is also linked to many somatic comorbidities, including clinical and subclinical hypothyroidism. We aimed to estimate the potential association between subclinical hypothyroidism (ScH) and migraine in children at our tertiary hospital. Materials and Methods: Using a case−control strategy, 200 children and adolescents were assigned to two equal groups: a case group (patients with migraine) of 100 patients and a control group of 100 patients without migraine.

Intracerebral hemorrhage associated COVID-19 patient with normal coagulation profile after ECMO treatment: A case report.

Objective: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a novel coronavirus-caused infectious acute respiratory disease that can progress to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). For severe cases, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an excellent treatment option. ECMO had a number of side effects, including bleeding.

Outcome and characteristics of COVID-19 patients associated with stroke: a multicenter hospital-based study in Egypt.

Background:  Nearly 55 percent of patients are said to be affected by the neurological effects of COVID-19. COVID-19 was shown to be related with stroke in 0.9 to 5% of people.

Short-term effects of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization compared to algometry pressure release in tension-type headache: a randomized placebo-controlled trial.

Purposes: To compare the effectiveness of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) and pressure algometry with sham ultrasound (control group) on the clinical measures of headache, pressure pain threshold (PPT) of upper trapezius and suboccipital muscles and cervical alignment in patients with tension type headache (TTH).

Methods: Seventy-two patients with TTH of both genders were randomly allocated to 3 experimental groups: a) the IASTM group (n=24), b) pressure algometry group (n=24), and c) sham ultrasound control group (n=24). Headache frequency and disability, pressure pain threshold of upper trapezius and suboccipital muscles, cervical lordosis angle (CA) and anterior head translation (AHT) were measured four weeks before and after intervention.
