There are two suggested pathways for how COVID-19 can affect the brain and mind: the direct impact on the brain and impact mediated via stress. Direct impact on the brain is manifested as encephalitis/encephalopathy with altered mental status (AMS) and delirium. In this paper, we summarize ...
Our team soon realized that many of the associations between COVID-19 and the brain were being drawn from small, highly selected groups of patients, which risks bias. So to combat this, we whittled down the vast number of potentially relevant papers on the neurology and psychiatry of COVID-...
Not only is the Rotman study one of the few to have shown COVID-19's effects on the brain, but it is the first to report diffusion abnormalities in the white matter of the cerebellum. Although the study was designed to show changes, rather than specific damage, to the brain from COVID...
Although COVID-19 was initially recognized as a severe respiratory disease, SARS-CoV-2 also has an impact on non-respiratory organs, including the brain. In addition to general symptoms (i.e., fatigue or tiredness) and heart and respiratory symptoms (i.e., shortness of breath or difficulty...
of the new study led by University of Oxford investigators, one that leading Covid researchers consider particularly important because it is the first study of the disease's potentialimpact on the brainthat is based on brain scans taken both before and after participants contracted the coronavirus....
known asbrain fog, may be the most frightening and baffling. A newstudypublished Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine, which looks at how much cognition is impaired in the months after a coronavirus infection, shows that Covid-19’s impact can be measured in the equivalent of IQ...
