Abstract

Purpose of review: Since the beginning of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, many lasting neurological sequelae including cognitive impairment have been recognized as part of the so-called long COVID syndrome. This narrative review summarizes the cognitive aspects of COVID-19.

Recent findings: Studies have consistently identified attention, memory, and executive functions as the cognitive domains most often affected by COVID-19 infection. Many studies have also reported neuroimaging, biofluid, and neurophysiological abnormalities that could potentially reflect the pathophysiological aspects of post-COVID cognitive impairment. While patients suffering from dementia have an elevated risk of COVID-19 infection, increasing evidence has also indicated that COVID-19 infection may increase the risks of Alzheimer's disease, suggesting bidirectional relationships. Post-COVID cognitive dysfunction is a pervasive and multifaceted problem and we are surely in our infancy of understanding. Future elucidation into the long-term effects, mechanisms, and therapies will depend on a concerted effort from clinicians, researchers, patients, and policy-makers alike.

COVID-19的认知方面。

自2019年冠状病毒病大流行开始以来，包括认知障碍在内的许多持久的神经系统后遗症已被认为是所谓的长冠状病毒综合征的一部分。这篇叙述性综述总结了COVID-19的认知方面。最近的发现:研究一致认为，注意力、记忆和执行功能是最常受COVID-19感染影响的认知领域。许多研究还报告了神经影像学、生物体液和神经生理异常，这些异常可能反映了covid - 19后认知障碍的病理生理方面。虽然痴呆症患者感染COVID-19的风险较高，但越来越多的证据也表明，COVID-19感染可能会增加患阿尔茨海默病的风险，这表明两者之间存在双向关系。新冠肺炎后的认知功能障碍是一个普遍和多方面的问题，我们肯定还处于认识的起步阶段。未来对长期影响、机制和治疗的阐明将取决于临床医生、研究人员、患者和决策者的共同努力。
