Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is not only being a public physical health emergency, but also affecting global mental health, as evidenced by worldwide panic purchases, independent quarantine, and social distancing. Therefore, it is important to concern how a pandemic might affect one's mental state. The aim of this review was to determine mental health status in the community during COVID-19 pandemic using the depression anxiety stress scales (DASS) self-assessment. A comprehensive and systematic literature search published from January-May 2020 through electronic databases Pubmed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar was conducted based on guidelines from Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). This study used a self-report tool DASS to assess depression, anxiety, and stress. Seven studies with a total of 15.020 participants that were published in 2020 were included in the analysis. The characteristics that were chosen to determine the mental health status (depression, anxiety, and stress) were age, sex, level of education, and marital status. Findings from this review showed that sociodemographic characteristics (age, sex, marital status, education level) contributed to mental health status (depression, anxiety, and stress).
The aim of this review is to examine the effects of COVID-19 on Tuberculosis (TB) management and to highlight evidence of the extent of TB and COVID-19 co-infection. Current findings on TB and COVID-19 have been identified using six databases: Pubmed, Science Direct, Pubmed Central, MedXRiv, Wiley, and Google Scholar. This search in literature was conducted up to 8 May 2020. We included five studies that met the selection criteria. These selected studies have been performed in regions having various demographic characteristics including developed and developing countries, mainly China. The total number of participants in each study ranged from 24 to 203. The case fatality rate of patients with TB and COVID-19 co-infection was found to be high (6/49; 12.3 percent) while a combined diagnosis of TB and COVID-19 was found in 9/49 patients. This condition is linked to several complications, manifested as the need for ex novo oxygen supply, pneumothorax, and extreme hypoxia. Researches on BCG vaccination have shown that countries without vaccination policy are more likely to be seriously affected than those with BCG vaccination programs. COVID-19 infection in patients with TB or the lack of sufficient BCG vaccination may be associated with higher detrimental consequences, including mortality.
