Even after healing from the Covid may remain i symptoms of the disease. A condition that has a name: long Covid. Vaccination, however, could play a role in reducing these disorders, which is why a study conducted by Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai e published in preprints in The Lancet. The researchers used data from a cohort of Covid-19 patients enrolled in a prospective registry set up in a tertiary healthcare system in New York City. Then, they underwent a baseline evaluation before Covid vaccines were available and followed for six months in which some of them were vaccinated. Specifically, 453 Covid patients with long Covid were involved, of which 324 – therefore 72% – vaccinated.
I results showed no significant differences in changes in respiratory symptoms and disorders such as anosmia, depression, anxiety, PTSD, quality of life, body mass index or blood pressure. Hence the conclusion that “Covid vaccination is not associated with improved PASC “.
US STUDY ON LONG COVID AND VACCINE
Further studies are needed to better understand the underlying mechanisms of PASC and to develop effective treatments ”. Likewise, the mean changes in symptoms of depression, anxiety, COVID-19-related PTSD, and PTSD due to other trauma “they were not significantly associated with vaccination status“. This is the first prospective cohort study to evaluate whether Covid vaccination can affect the symptoms of long Covid. But the research results suggest that “while vaccination is important in providing additional immunological protection against reinfection, it does not appear to be associated with changes in PASC symptoms“. Pasc is the definition of Post-acute Sequelae of COVID-19, from which between 15 and 84% of Covid patients suffer according to studies conducted in China, Italy e France. «While some may report significant improvement in PASC symptoms after vaccination, these findings have not been confirmed in our study population.», Observe the American researchers.
