A systematic review of neurological symptoms and complications of COVID-19

Xiangliang Chen et al.

Summary: The study aims to examine the frequency of neurological symptoms and complications in COVID-19 patients through a systematic review of literature. The most commonly described neurological symptoms include headache, dizziness, taste and smell dysfunctions, and impaired consciousness. Cerebrovascular events, seizures, meningoencephalitis, and immune-mediated neurological diseases have been reported in smaller studies or single cases, but are not suitable for quantitative analysis.

COVID-19 and neurological disorders: are neurodegenerative or neuroimmunological diseases more vulnerable?

Luigi Ferini-Strambi et al.

Summary: COVID-19 infection can influence the presentation of neurological disorders and future diseases, with age potentially playing a key role in neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease, while neuropathology may be more critical in neuroimmunological diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis.

Neuroimaging and neurologic findings in COVID-19 and other coronavirus infections: A systematic review in 116 patients

Sanaz Katal et al.

Summary: This paper systematically reviewed the imaging findings of patients with neurological symptoms associated with coronavirus infections, demonstrating diverse radiologic results in the context of different neurologic presentations. While many patients have normal imaging evaluations, some also present with abnormalities. Various neurologic abnormalities, such as stroke and encephalomyelitis, require attention during the COVID-19 pandemic.

EAN consensus statement for management of patients with neurological diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic

T. J. von Oertzen et al.

Summary: This paper presents expert consensus statements by the European Academy of Neurology (EAN) to guide neurologists caring for patients with COVID-19, using a refined Delphi methodology. While general recommendations for preventing COVID-19 transmission had high levels of agreement and importance, opinions varied regarding statements related to therapy.

Summary: The LEOSS cohort study identified age, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and male sex as risk factors for complicated disease stages at SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis, confirming previous findings. Further research on COVID-19 outcomes and treatment effects is needed.

Summary: COVID-19 is associated with a small but significant risk of cerebrovascular events, particularly ischemic stroke. The mortality rate is high for COVID-19-associated cerebrovascular complications, highlighting the importance of aggressive monitoring and early intervention.

COVID-19, nausea, and vomiting

Summary: Nausea as an early symptom of COVID-19 deserves more attention, and mediators released from infected intestinal epithelial cells may play a role in inducing vomiting.

A Prospective Study of Neurologic Disorders in Hospitalized Patients With COVID-19 in New York City

Jennifer A. Frontera et al.

Summary: This study found that 13.5% of COVID-19 patients developed new neurologic disorders, which were associated with increased risk of in-hospital mortality and decreased likelihood of discharge home.

COVID-19 in multiple sclerosis patients: susceptibility, severity risk factors and serological response

Ana Zabalza et al.

Summary: The study found that multiple sclerosis patients have similar incidence, risk factors, and outcomes for COVID-19 as the general population. Patients treated with anti-CD20 therapy for a longer period of time may be at a higher risk of COVID-19, and less than 20% generate an antibody response. Only age was related to severity.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Features in Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019 and Neurological Manifestations: Correlation with Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings in 58 Patients

Francois Lersy et al.

Summary: Neurological manifestations are common in COVID-19 patients, with encephalopathy being the most frequent symptom. Increased levels of protein and albumin in CSF, elevated albumin quotient suggesting blood-brain barrier integrity impairment, and leptomeningeal enhancement on brain MR images are common findings. Detection of SARS-CoV-2 in CSF remains scarce.

Cerebrospinal fluid in COVID-19: A systematic review of the literature

Ariane Lewis et al.

Summary: The detection of SARS-CoV-2 in cerebrospinal fluid or evaluation for intrathecal antibody synthesis appears to be rare in COVID-19 patients. Most neurological complications associated with SARS-CoV-2 are unlikely to be related to direct viral neuroinvasion.

6-month consequences of COVID-19 in patients discharged from hospital: a cohort study (Publication with Expression of Concern. See vol. 401, pg. 90, 2023)

Chaolin Huang et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the long-term health consequences of discharged COVID-19 patients and associated risk factors, particularly disease severity. Patients with more severe illness during hospitalization showed more severe impaired pulmonary diffusion capacities and abnormal chest imaging manifestations, highlighting the need for targeted interventions for long-term recovery.

Patient outcomes after hospitalisation with COVID-19 and implications for follow-up: results from a prospective UK cohort

David T. Arnold et al.

Summary: The study found that most COVID-19 patients still experienced persistent symptoms and limitations in physical ability during the recovery period, but clinically significant abnormalities in chest radiograph, exercise tests, blood tests, and spirometry were less frequent, especially in patients who did not require supplementary oxygen during their acute infection.

Neuro-COVID-19 is more than anosmia: clinical presentation, neurodiagnostics, therapies, and prognosis

Finja Schweitzer et al.

Summary: Neurological symptoms and complications of COVID-19 range from common nonspecific manifestations like headache and dizziness to less frequent but more severe conditions such as Guillain--Barre syndrome and encephalopathy. Comprehensive work-up including cerebrospinal fluid assessment and neuroimaging is necessary for accurate diagnosis and management.

Neurological symptoms in COVID-19: a cross-sectional monocentric study of hospitalized patients

Ummehan Ermis et al.

Summary: Neurological manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 infection in hospitalized patients include coordination deficits, cognitive impairment, paresis, abnormal reflex status, sensory abnormalities, muscle weakness and pain, hyposmia, and headache. Patients with ARDS have more severe symptoms, with subarachnoid bleeding and ischemic stroke also observed. The cognitive deficits mainly affect executive functions, attention, language, and delayed memory recall.
