Summary
COVID-19 significantly impacts brain function, leading to cognitive decline and altered connectivity in areas like the prefrontal cortex. This review highlights neurological symptoms and brain changes in patients post-infection.
Area of Science:
- Neuroscience
- Neurology
- Radiology
Background:
- COVID-19 is associated with a range of neurological symptoms and cognitive impairments.
- Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) is a key tool for investigating brain alterations.
Conclusions:
- COVID-19 can significantly alter brain functional connectivity.
- Findings provide insights into the neural basis of cognitive decline and neurological impairments in COVID-19 survivors.
