Bipolar spectrum, hypothyroidism, and their association with chronic fatigue/myalgic encephalomyelitis-like syndrome in long COVID: could they be identified as early determinants?
The findings suggest that hypothyroidism and bipolar spectrum disorders may act as predisposing factors in the development of CFS/ME in long-term COVID-19. Identifying these clinical antecedents could facilitate early detection and the development of targeted intervention strategies in at-risk populations.
