“…The increase in intracerebral haemorrhage could be i) directly attributed to underdiagnosed and therefore undertreated cerebral ischemia, ii) less strictly controlled blood pressure values due to reduced contacts with doctors or iii) an increase of accidents in the household (e.g. due to self-made construction work or family violence during the shutdown and government restrictions) [15][16][17][18].…”

Background The spread of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 and the guidance from authorities for social distancing and media reporting lead to significant uncertainty in Germany. As concerns have been expressed regarding the underdiagnosing of harmful diseases. We explored the rates of emergency presentations for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and acute cerebrovascular events (ACVE) before and after spread of SARS-CoV-2. Methods We analyzed all-cause visits at a tertiary university emergency department and admissions for ACS and ACVE before (calendar weeks 1 to 9, 2020) and after (calendar weeks 10 to 16, 2020) the first coronavirus disease (COVID-19) case in the region of the Saarland, Germany. The data were compared with the same period of the previous year. Results In 2020 an average of 346 patients per week presented at the emergency department whereas in 2019 an average of 400 patients presented up to calendar week 16 (p=0.018; whole year 2019 = 395 patients per week). After the first COVID-19 diagnosis in the region, emergency department visit volume decreased by 30% compared with the same period in 2019 (p=0.0012). Admissions due to ACS decreased by 41% (p=0.0023 for all; Δ -71% (p=0.007) for unstable angina, Δ -25% (p=0.42) for myocardial infarction with ST-elevation and Δ -17% (p=0.28) without ST-elevation) compared with the same period in 2019 and decreased from 142 patients in calendar weeks 1 to 9 to 62 patients in calendar weeks 10 to 16. ACVE decreased numerically by 20% (p=0.25 for all; transient ischemic attack: Δ -32% (p=0.18), ischemic stroke: Δ -23% (p=0.48), intracerebral haemorrhage: Δ +57% (p=0.4)). There was no significant change in ACVE per week (p=0.7) comparing calendar weeks 1 to 9 (213 patients) and weeks 10 to 16 (147 patients). Testing of 3756 samples was performed to detect 58 SARS-CoV-2 positive patients (prevalence 1,54%, thereof one patient with myocardial and two with cerebral ischemia) up to calendar week 16 in 2020. Conclusions The COVID-19 pandemic was associated with a significant decrease in all-cause admission and admissions due to cardiovascular events in the emergency department. Regarding acute cerebrovascular events there was a numerical decrease but no significant difference.

“…Relationship between parenting stress and school closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic doi:10.1111/pcn.13088 COVID-19 has spread rapidly throughout the world and there is increased risk of child maltreatment and domestic violence due to its spread. 1,2 One reason for this is that school closures force children to stay at home for longer durations, which may increase parenting stress. In Japan, all schools nationwide were temporarily closed starting on 2 March 2020.…”

“…Yet, children are possibly not only affected in the social or educational domain. A lockdown could have serious health consequences, such as a risk of late presentation to the hospital, frequent dental problems [6], irregular sleeping patterns, an increase in sedentary behavior, as well as an increase in-or worsening of domestic violence [1]. The French Ministry of the Interior has reported a rise in child abuse warnings of 90%, substantiating the gravity of the situation [3].…”
