Lungs might hold clues to long COVID brain fog
The "brain fog" of long COVID might be due to impaired lung function following a person's infection, a new study says.
Covid scientists make breakthrough discovery about cause of 'brain fog'
The brain "fog" often reported by people with long Covid may be linked to lung function, according to a recent study.Scientists have discovered a potential connection between diminished pulmonary gas exchange and the concentration difficulties experienced by individuals dealing with long-term coronavirus effects.
Long COVID brain fog linked to lung function
In patients with long COVID, lower pulmonary gas exchange may be associated with impaired cognitive function, according to a study presented at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).
Sluggish gas exchange in the lungs may be involved in long-COVID brain fog
Lower rates of gas exchange in the lungs may contribute to impaired cognitive function ("brain fog") tied to long COVID, according to a small study to be presented at next week's Radiological Society of North America's (RSNA's) annual meeting in Chicago.
Long COVID ‘brain fog’ linked to lung dysfunction in new study
Study senior author Dr. Sean Fain said: “If these findings can be generalized to the long Covid population, the study suggests that there may be a causative relationship between cognitive dysfunction and lung dysfunction, suggesting a potential treatment strategy using methods that target improved gas exchange.”
