[Association between hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and Parsonage Turner syndrome: coincidence or cause-effect relationship?].

Parsonage-Turner syndrome or idiopathic brachial neuritis is a total or partial inflammation of the brachial plexus, with a typical presentation as a sudden and very intense pain in the shoulder, followed by weakness and early amyotrophy. The etiology is still unknown, although an immune mediated mechanism is thought to be involved. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is a well-established treatment for hematological malignancies, but with a growing implication in the treatment of autoimmune diseases.

Determinants of the onset and prognosis of the post-COVID-19 condition: a 2-year prospective observational cohort study.

Background: At least 5-10% of subjects surviving COVID-19 develop the post-COVID-19 condition (PCC) or "Long COVID". The clinical presentation of PCC is heterogeneous, its pathogenesis is being deciphered, and objective, validated biomarkers are lacking. It is unknown if PCC is a single entity or a heterogeneous syndrome with overlapping pathophysiological basis.

Social, Academic, and Health Status Impact of Long COVID on Children and Young People: An Observational, Descriptive, and Longitudinal Cohort Study.

There is a lack of evidence of the health impacts due to long COVID among children and young people (CYP). The objective of this study is to determine the main clinical characteristics of long COVID in CYP and to investigate the academic, social, and health status impacts of long COVID in this population. An observational, descriptive, and longitudinal study on CYP who presented COVID-19 symptoms for more than twelve weeks after SARS-CoV-2 infection was performed between December 2020 and May 2021.

Effect of a rehabilitation-based chronic disease management program targeting severe COPD exacerbations on readmission patterns.

Background: Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is recommended after a severe COPD exacerbation, but its short- and long-term effects on health care utilization have not been fully established.

Aims: The aims of this study were to evaluate patient compliance with a chronic disease management (CDM) program incorporating home-based exercise training as the main component after a severe COPD exacerbation and to determine its effects on health care utilization in the following year.

Materials And Methods: COPD patients with a severe exacerbation were included in a case-cohort study at admission.
