Long-term brain fog and cognitive impairment in previously hospitalized COVID-19 patients.

Objectives: Limited research exists on COVID-19 associated brain fog, and on the long-term cognitive and psychiatric sequelae in racially and ethnically diverse patients. We characterize the neuropsychological sequelae of post-acute COVID-19 in a diverse cohort and investigate whether COVID-19 clinical severity remains associated with brain fog and cognitive deficits approximately 2 years post infection.

Methods: A cross-sectional study of patients with a history of COVID-19 hospitalization (March-September 2020).

Resting-State EEG Signature of Early Consciousness Recovery in Comatose Patients with Traumatic Brain Injury.

Background: Resting-state electroencephalography (rsEEG) is usually obtained to assess seizures in comatose patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). We aim to investigate rsEEG measures and their prediction of early recovery of consciousness in patients with TBI.

Methods: This is a retrospective study of comatose patients with TBI who were admitted to a trauma center (October 2013 to January 2022).

Assessing Regional Weather's Impact on Spinal Cord Injury Survivors, Caregivers, and General Public in Miami, Florida.

(1) Background: Climate change is increasing the already frequent diverse extreme weather events (EWE) across geographic locations, directly and indirectly impacting human health. However, current ongoing research fails to address the magnitude of these indirect impacts, including healthcare access. Vulnerable populations such as persons with spinal cord injury (pSCI) face added physiologic burden such as thermoregulation or mobility challenges like closure of public transportation.

Resting-State EEG Signature of Early Consciousness Recovery in Comatose Traumatic Brain Injury Patients.

Background Resting-state electroencephalogram (rsEEG) is usually obtained to assess seizures in comatose patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients. We aim to investigate rsEEG measures and their prediction of early recovery of consciousness in comatose TBI patients. Methods This is a retrospective study of comatose TBI patients who were admitted to a level-1 trauma center (10/2013-1/2022).

Covert Tracking to Immersive Stimuli in Traumatic Brain Injury Subjects With Disorders of Consciousness.

Eye tracking assessments are clinician dependent and can contribute to misclassification of coma. We investigated responsiveness to videos with and without audio in traumatic brain injury (TBI) subjects using video eye-tracking (VET). We recruited 20 healthy volunteers and 10 unresponsive TBI subjects.

Predictors and Temporal Trends of Withdrawal of Life-Sustaining Therapy After Acute Stroke in the Florida Stroke Registry.

Unlabelled: Temporal trends and factors associated with the withdrawal of life-sustaining therapy (WLST) after acute stroke are not well determined.

Design: Observational study (2008-2021).

Setting: Florida Stroke Registry (152 hospitals).

Covert Tracking to Visual Stimuli in Comatose Patients With Traumatic Brain Injury.

Objectives: This study investigated video eye tracking (VET) in comatose patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Methods: We recruited healthy participants and unresponsive patients with TBI. We surveyed the patients' clinicians on whether the patient was tracking and performed the Coma Recovery Scale-Revised (CRS-R).

Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms Among COVID-19 Survivors After Hospitalization.

Objective: Limited data are available on posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) among COVID-19 survivors. This study aimed to contribute to this knowledge base.

Methods: PTSS among COVID-19 survivors who had been hospitalized were investigated.

T-cell lymphoma in the nasal cavity of a Brown Swiss heifer.

Background: Tumours of the upper respiratory tract are relatively common in cattle, but to our knowledge, there have been no reports of lymphoma of the nasal cavity. This case report describes the findings in a 22-month-old Brown Swiss heifer with T-cell lymphoma of the nasal cavity.

Case Presentation: The main clinical findings were lacrimation and swelling of the head above and below the right eye, mild exophthalmos, third eyelid prolapse, purulent ocular discharge and congestion of scleral blood vessels.

Novel avulsion pattern of the left principal bronchus with involvement of the carina and caudal thoracic trachea in a cat.

A 2-year-old, 4.5 kg, neutered male domestic shorthair cat was presented to the emergency service with dyspnoea, anorexia and apathetic behaviour. Thoracic radiographs showed typical signs for a thoracic trauma and a tracheal lesion in the region of the carina, consistent with pseudoairway formation.

Thoracic computed tomography, angiographic computed tomography, and pathology findings in six cats experimentally infected with Aelurostrongylus abstrusus.

Aelurostrongylus abstrusus infection is common in endemic areas and may cause severe respiratory clinical signs. Computed tomography (CT) is an important tool to diagnose pulmonary disease, because it allows detection of small lesions and discrimination of superimposed structures. The purpose of this study was to characterize by CT and angiographic CT the pulmonary lesions in six cats before, and 48 and 81 days after inoculation with 100 or 800 A.

Altered development and reproduction in mosquitofish exposed to pulp and paper mill effluent in the Fenholloway River, Florida USA.

Female mosquitofish exposed to pulp and paper mill effluent (PME) in the Fenholloway River, Florida, USA have masculinized secondary sex characteristics and altered aromatase enzyme activity. We and others have shown that the Fenholloway River PME contains androgenic and progestogenic substance(s). The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that the development and reproductive health of PME-exposed Fenholloway River mosquitofish are altered compared to mosquitofish living in Econfina River, which is the reference site.
