Abstract
Abstract: The pandemic of coronavirus infection 2019 (COVID-19) is stressing people's daily lives and making them more susceptible to various mental illnesses. Depression and suicide attempt as well as, strangely enough, manic patients are on the rise. The main complication of COVID-19 infection is ischemic stroke. Multiple lacunar infarcts in the white matter of the right middle cerebral artery region induce an imbalance of blood flow in the left and right cerebral cortex and risk causing mania. The increase in mania during the COVID-19 must be considered not only a primary increase due to stress but also poststroke mania secondary to COVID-19 infection.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease publishes peer-reviewed articles containing new data or ways of reorganizing established knowledge relevant to understanding and modifying human behavior, especially that defined as impaired or diseased, and the context, applications and effects of that knowledge. Our policy is summarized by the slogan, "Behavioral science for clinical practice." We consider articles that include at least one behavioral variable, clear definition of study populations, and replicable research designs. Authors should use the active voice and first person whenever possible.
