COVID-19 update with brain changes

SS Mishra and colleagues from the Indian Institute of Technology, India are going to present their findings at the Radiological Society of North America conference next week in Chicago, USA.

The study was conducted among 46 recovered COVID-19 patients and 30 uninfected people by comparing the characteristics of the scan results.brainwith MRI within 6 months of recovery

The study found that the MRI characteristics of the previously infected group have abnormalities in the frontal lobe and brain stem, which are different from people who have never been infected.

The research team estimated that abnormalities occurring in the brain may be associated with symptoms of Long COVID that can be found, whether it’s thinking problems, memory, headaches, insomnia, anxiety / depression, etc.

However, we will have to wait to see the full research results. to see more details And more studies are needed to prove the relationship between infection, timing, and structural changes in the brain. and abnormal symptoms arise in the condition Long COVID also

The important thing to learn is A growing amount of research has pointed to the fact that the effect of an infection does not end a cold like a common cold.
