A Liga Acadêmica de Cirurgia Geral (LACIGE) tem o prazer de apresentar sua 1ª edição publicada do Manual de Cirurgia Geral, escrita e idealizada por ligantes. Este manual tem como objetivo servir de apoio nos principais assuntos relacionados à cirurgia geral, atualizar a comunidade acadêmica de medicina sobre recentes mudanças em diversos assuntos e possibilitar o melhor entendimento do conteúdo de forma resumida. A LACIGE foi criada em 2014 por estudantes da 20ª turma de medicina da Universidade CEUMA, São Luís do Maranhão. Desde então é conhecida por suas mais diversas conquistas e participações em eventos médicos, como o Congresso Internacional Médico Acadêmico do Maranhão (COIMAMA) o qual foi campeão nas disputas dos workshops de ligas nos anos 2018, 2019 e terceiro lugar no ano 2022. Também ganhou o 2° lugar na primeira olimpíada de sutura da Associação Brasileira das Ligas Acadêmicas de Cirurgia (ABLAC) em 2021. Destarte, está expandindo suas conquistas dentro da pesquisa com sua primeira publicação de manual de liga acadêmica. A diretoria e os ligantes esperam que todos apreciem, façam bom uso do material e aprendam muito, sempre buscando atualizações e novidades sobre o assunto!
Introduction: Since the beginning of the pandemic in December 2019, COVID-19 caused by the infection of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), in addition to the clinical manifestations already, can develop changes in the rate of blood clotting, where there are already notifications of Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA) associated with the virus. Objective: To know the characteristics of patients with COVID-19 affected by CVA, documented in the scientific literature. Method: A systematic literature review was carried out, using the MeSH Brower platform descriptors, namely: Stroke and Coronavirus, with an AND expression. The articles were searched in scientific databases: PubMed, MEDLINE Complete and SCIELO. 217 studies were found, of which 04 publications were included in this research. Results: Parallel studies on patient characteristics: elderly, male and comorbidities, such as hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and obesity, all risk factors for stroke. However, there were cases of young patients affected by CVA after the diagnosis of COVID-19. With regard to neurological changes, the researched articles state that most patients have symptoms such as deviation of the labial commissure on the right, dysarthria, aphasia, hemiplegia and hemianesthesia on the left. Conclusion: Although this incidence is not known, CVA is emerging as a complication of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this sense, further studies on the subject are necessary, since the elucidation of thrombotic mechanisms in patients with COVID- 19 can generate complications to prevent complications such as Cerebrovascular Accident.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
