Older adults recovering from COVID-19 face a 58% higher risk of developing dementia compared to those uninfected, with rates peaking 12 months post-infection.

Study reviewed 11 studies, 940k cases, 6.8M controls.

Parallel electrophysiological abnormalities due to COVIDā€19 infection and to Alzheimer's disease and related dementia
ā€œResting-state EEG abnormalities include EEG slowing (reduced alpha rhythm; increased slow waves) and epileptiform activity. An expert panel conducted a systematic review to present compelling evidence that cognitive deficits due to COVID-19 and to Alzheimer's disease and related dementia (ADRD) are driven by overlapping pathologies and neurophysiological abnormalities. EEG abnormalities seen in COVID-19 patients resemble those observed in early stages of neurodegenerative diseases, particularly ADRDā€

Does Long COVID Lead to Alzheimer's? A New Study Took an Unexpected Turn
ā€œMore than one in ten people who catch COVID donā€™t fully recover ā€” developing a chronic condition called Long COVID which causes a variety of debilitating symptoms, including brain fog. Since some studies have found that COVID infections are associated with overall brain shrinkage, altered brain structure, and an increased risk of developing Alzheimerā€™s, researchers have been investigating the links between COVID and Alzheimerā€™s.ā€

Thread on Twitter: New study documents the case of two previously healthy sisters - 11 and 13-years-old - with new-onset cognitive decline after mild covid. The ability of their brains to consume glucose had been impaired - an initiating factor for dementia, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease šŸ§µ
