Revascularisation by CEA or CAS maintains preoperative QOL. There are minimal differences between CEA and CAS. This review reaffirms the success of carotid revascularisation in preventing the devastating consequences of stroke on QOL and functional status. Guidelines for future studies are provided.

Hyponatremia is a common complication in COVID-19-positive patients and is associated with significant mortality and morbidity. Several cases of COVID-19-related hyponatremia secondary to the Syndrome of Inappropriate Secretion of Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH) have been reported in the literature, which might suggest that SIADH is almost always the underlying cause of hyponatremia in COVID-19 infections. However, COVID-19-related hyponatremia can have diverse underlying etiologies, similar to hyponatremia in non-COVID-19 patients, and requires a thorough assessment to reach a correct diagnosis and implement appropriate management.
