Description

Maria-Ioanna Stefanou and a large team published a narrative review in twenty twenty-four on the neurological face of long COVID, frankly subtitled as more questions than answers. About a third of COVID survivors report neurological symptoms lasting a year or more. The review synthesizes what those symptoms are and what might cause them.

Core complaints include fatigue, post-exertional malaise, thinking problems, headache, brain fog, sleep disturbance, smell and taste disorders, and mood symptoms. The picture overlaps heavily with chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, and post-intensive-care syndromes. The authors review diagnostic and treatment approaches and the new electronic-record studies using machine learning. Their verdict: phenotypes are clear, mechanisms and therapies are not.
