Rates of “brain fog,” dementia, psychotic disorders, and epilepsy or seizures remained elevated 2 years after COVID-19 infection, according to a study of nearly 1.3 million adults and children in the United States, Australia, Europe, and Asia.
The study team, led by University of Oxford researchers, mined data on 14 neurologic and psychiatric disorders from the international TriNetX electronic health records network. The database contains the deidentified hospital, primary care, and specialist records of about 89 million adult and pediatric patients from the United States and, to a lesser extent, Australia, the United Kingdom, Spain, Bulgaria, India, Malaysia, and Taiwan.
