research Post COVID-19 Sequelae in Adults: A Review
Post-COVID syndrome is a multisystem disorder affecting individuals after recovering from acute COVID-19, with symptoms lasting over three months. This review analyzed 14 studies and found that common symptoms include fatigue (71.4%), shortness of breath (64.1%), anxiety/depression (35.7%), and cognitive deficits (21.4%). Hair loss affected 14.2% of individuals. The review highlights the significant impact on various organs and the increased risks of cardiovascular issues, chronic pulmonary disease, and acute kidney injury. It emphasizes the need for further research to understand the pathogenesis and develop management strategies for these long-term effects.

research Clinical Features, Therapeutic Outcomes, and Recovery Period of Long COVID
This study surveyed 286 patients with long COVID to analyze clinical features, recovery periods, and factors affecting recovery. Common symptoms included respiratory issues and fatigue, with hair loss emerging as a significant late-phase complaint and showing the worst treatment outcomes. Smoking was identified as an independent risk factor for prolonged recovery, while factors like sex, age, and comorbidities were not. The study proposed therapeutic options, including inhaled budesonide and herbal medications, but noted limitations such as a small sample size and lack of data on the Omicron variant and vaccination effects. The study emphasized the need for early intervention, smoking cessation, and further research to understand long COVID, treating it as a distinct disease from the common cold or flu.
