Core Tip |
In the interesting letter by Drs. Zhuang and Zhong, the psychiatric and neurological manifestations of 68 patients with Wilson’s disease who were treated with anti-copper therapy unexpectedly remained unchanged after the pandemic. Given the impact of the pandemic on patients with neurological and psychiatric disorders, a worsening in the severity or frequency of these manifestations could have been expected. The possible reasons underlying this finding, including the relatively small sample size, the effect of therapy, and the patients’ resilience, are discussed. |
