“…Similarly, COVID-19 appears to commonly cause sequelae (the so-called “long-COVID” syndrome) [ 37 – 39 ], characterised by fatigue, sleeping difficulties, low grade fever, depression, anxiety, impacting cardiac, pulmonary and renal functions and discussion is ongoing on the potential role of post-COVID-19 rehabilitation [ 14 , 40 – 42 ].…”

Information on tuberculosis (TB) and COVID-19 is still limited. The aim of this study is to describe the features of the TB/COVID-19 co-infected individuals from a prospective, anonymised, multi-country register-based cohort with special focus on the determinants of mortality and other outcomes. We enrolled all patients of any age with either active TB or previous TB and COVID-19. 172 centres from 34 countries provided individual data on 767 TB-COVID-19 co-infected patients, (>50% population-based). Of 767 patients, 553/747 (74.0%) had TB before COVID-19 (including 234/747 with previous TB), 71/747 (9.5%) had COVID-19 first and 123/747 (16.5%) had both diseases diagnosed within the same week (35, 4.6% on the same day). 85/767 patients died (11.08%) (41/289 (14.2%) in Europe and 44/478 (9.2%) outside Europe; (p=0.03)): 42 (49.4%) from COVID-19, 31 (36.5%) from COVID-19 and TB, 1/85 (1.2%) from TB and 11 from other causes. In the univariate analysis on mortality the following variables reached statistical significance: age, being male, having >1 comorbidity; diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, chronic respiratory disease, chronic renal disease, presence of key symptoms, invasive ventilation and hospitalisation due to COVID-19. The final multivariable logistic regression model included age, male gender, and invasive ventilation as independent contributors to mortality. The data suggests TB and COVID-19 are a “cursed duet” and need immediate attention. TB should be considered a risk factor for severe COVID disease and patients with TB should be prioritised for COVID-19 preventative efforts, including vaccination.

Objective: The aim of this study is to compare the early psychiatric findings in the quarantine period in COVID-19 patients, under quarantine and healthy individuals. Method: A cross-sectional observational study design was used. The study was conducted with patients diagnosed with COVID-19 and in home quarantine, contact individuals who were not diagnosed with COVID-19 but in home quarantine, and healthy individuals without quarantine restrictions. While measurements are made on the first day of quarantine and 10 days later for COVID-19 patients and contact individuals; For the healthy group, two measurements were made with an interval of 10 days. Individuals were evaluated with Coronavirus-19 Phobia Scale, Coronavirus Anxiety Scale, Patient Health Questionnaire, 30-second sit-to-stand test. Results: 10th day, coronaphobia and coronavirus anxiety were found to be higher in COVID-19 patients(p<0.05). It was observed that anxiety and depression in COVID-19 patients; coronaphobia in under quarantine individuals decreased within 10 days(p<0.05). There was no significant difference between the three groups in terms of the change in the 30-second sit-to-stand test score on the first day, on the tenth day, and in the quarantine period (p>0.05). No significant change was revealed in any groups in the quarantine period (p>0.05). Conclusion: Precautions should be taken for psychiatric findings in early period during the quarantine period in COVID-19 patients and under quarantine individuals.

Com o surgimento da COVID-19 e posterior aumento da sobrevida dos acometidos, observou-se o desenvolvimento de complicações à saúde dos pacientes mesmo após sua recuperação. Nesse contexto, encontra-se a redução da capacidade funcional, influenciada por composição corporal e integridade cardiorrespiratória. Este estudo objetivou avaliar a composição corporal e capacidade funcional de pacientes pós COVID-19. Tratou-se de uma pesquisa de campo, transversal, descritiva com abordagem quantitativa, desenvolvida na clínica escola de fisioterapia de uma instituição de ensino superior durante o segundo semestre de 2021. A população foi composta por pacientes pós COVID-19 e a amostra contou com 8 indivíduos aceitos pelos critérios de inclusão. Utilizou-se formulário para registro dos dados, teste de caminhada de seis minutos para avaliação da capacidade funcional e avaliação da composição corporal. A pesquisa seguiu a resolução 466/12 que regulamenta pesquisas com seres humanos e os dados foram dispostos em tabelas do Excel e avaliados através de estatística descritiva para exposição dos resultados. Constatou-se que 87,5% (n=7) dos contaminados são homens com idade média de 51 anos ± 15,98, dos quais 50% (n=4) possui hipertensão ou coronariopatia e 62,5% (n=5) apresentam como sintomas predominantes dispneia, fadiga e dor. Com relação a composição corporal, notou-se que 62,5% (n=5) dos pacientes apresentou percentual de gordura elevado. No que diz respeito a capacidade funcional, 62,5% (n=5) dos pacientes apresentou redução maior que 25% da capacidade funcional. Conclui-se que a COVID-19 e alterações na composição corporal podem impactar na capacidade funcional dos indivíduos, podendo comprometer sua qualidade de vida.
