    Prospective Follow-Up of Neurological Findings and Recovery Tımes in Covid-19 Patients
    (Mdpi, 2025) Bulgak, Mirkan; Demirdal, Tuna
    This study aimed to evaluate the type, frequency, onset, and recovery duration of neurological symptoms caused by COVID-19, including newly emerging post-COVID-19 neurological findings, to contribute to improved prognosis and follow-up strategies. A total of 110 COVID-19 patients hospitalized with positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR tests (24 December 2021-10 March 2022) were prospectively assessed. Neurological symptoms during hospitalization and at 1, 3, and 6 months post-discharge were documented, with all findings confirmed by a neurologist. The time of symptom onset was recorded for each patient. Fatigue (75.5%) was the most common symptom, lasting 10.43 weeks on average, followed by myalgia (57.3%, 4.29 weeks) and headache (56.4%, 3.35 weeks). Forgetfulness persisted the longest (22.03 weeks). Headache and myalgia were more frequent in women, while symptoms like dizziness, insomnia, and nausea/vomiting were more common in patients aged <= 50. No significant differences in symptom duration were observed based on age or gender. Neurological symptoms, such as fatigue, headache, myalgia, and forgetfulness, were prevalent in both the acute and post-COVID-19 phases. The study underscores the importance of systematic neurological monitoring and the development of individualized follow-up strategies to manage long-term neurological effects and improve patient outcomes.

    A Case of Measles During Pregnancy: Case Report and Management
    (Bayrakol Medical Publisher, 2025) Bulgak, Mirkan
    Measles is a viral infection known for its high contagiousness and serious complications. It caused approximately 136,00 deaths worldwide in 2022. It may lead to more severe complications in pregnant women due to the weakened immune system. In this article, the symptoms, complications, and treatment process of a 26-year-old woman who had measles while five weeks pregnant were examined. The patient presented with symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection, but treatment was started after a maculopapular rash and positive measles PCR test. During the treatment process, nasal oxygen, antihistamines, and other supportive treatments were administered to control complications. Since measles infection during pregnancy carries serious risks, early diagnosis and close follow-up are important. Additionally, it is emphasized that vaccination rates should be increased.
