Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a historic pandemic of respiratory disease. COVID-19 also causes acute and post-acute neurological symptoms, which range from mild, such as headaches, to severe, including hemorrhages. Current evidence suggests that there is no widespread infection the central nervous system (CNS) by SARS-CoV-2, thus what causing disease? Here, we review potential immunological mechanisms driving in patients. We begin discussing implications imbalanced peripheral immunity on CNS function. Next, examine for dysregulation blood-brain barrier during SARS-CoV-2 infection. Last, discuss role myeloid cells may play promoting Combined, highlight innate neuroinflammation suggest areas future research.

Growing evidence links COVID-19 with acute and long-term neurological dysfunction. However, the pathophysiological mechanisms resulting in central nervous system involvement remain unclear, posing both diagnostic therapeutic challenges. Here we show outcomes of a cross-sectional clinical study (NCT04472013) including imaging data corresponding multidimensional characterization immune mediators cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) plasma patients belonging to different Neuro-COVID severity classes. The most prominent signs severe are blood-brain barrier (BBB) impairment, elevated microglia activation markers polyclonal B cell response targeting self-antigens non-self-antigens. decreased regional brain volumes associating specific CSF parameters, however, characterized by cytokine storm presenting non-inflammatory profile. Post-acute syndrome strongly associates distinctive set mediators. Collectively, identify several potentially actionable targets prevent or intervene consequences SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Summary

Post-COVID cognitive dysfunction (PCCD) is a condition in which patients with history of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, usually three months from the onset, exhibit subsequent impairment various domains, and cannot be explained by an alternative diagnosis. While our knowledge risk factors management strategy PCCD still incomplete, it necessary to integrate current epidemiology, diagnosis treatment evidence, form consensus criteria better understand this disease improve management. Identifying vulnerable population providing reliable strategies for effective prevention urgently needed. In paper, we reviewed diagnostic markers, available treatments on disease, formed research recommendation framework population, under background post-COVID period.

Post-COVID cognitive deficits, including 'brain fog', are clinically complex, with both objective and subjective components. They common debilitating, can affect the ability to work, yet their biological underpinnings remain unknown. In this prospective cohort study of 1,837 adults hospitalized COVID-19, we identified two distinct biomarker profiles measured during acute admission, which predict outcomes 6 12 months after COVID-19. A first profile links elevated fibrinogen relative C-reactive protein deficits. second D-dimer deficits occupational impact. This was mediated by fatigue shortness breath. Neither significantly depression or anxiety. Results were robust across secondary analyses. replicated, specificity COVID-19 tested, in a large-scale electronic health records dataset.

Abstract There have been hundreds of millions cases coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2). With the growing population recovered patients, it crucial to understand long-term consequences and management strategies. Although COVID-19 was initially considered an illness, recent evidence suggests that manifestations including but not limited those cardiovascular, respiratory, neuropsychiatric, gastrointestinal, reproductive, musculoskeletal systems may persist long after phase. These persistent manifestations, also referred as COVID, could impact all patients with across full spectrum illness severity. Herein, we comprehensively review current literature on highlighting its epidemiological understanding, vaccinations, organ-specific sequelae, pathophysiological mechanisms, multidisciplinary In addition, psychological psychosomatic factors underscored. Despite these findings diagnostic therapeutic strategies based previous experience pilot studies remain inadequate, well-designed clinical trials should be prioritized validate existing hypotheses. Thus, propose primary challenges concerning biological knowledge gaps efficient remedies well discuss corresponding recommendations.
