[Direct and indirect neurological manifestations of COVID-19]

OBJECTIVE: To systemize the neurological manifestations of COVID-19 MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic computer analysis of all currently available publications on the neurological manifestations of COVID-19 (2374 publications in PUBMED) using algorithms of topological data analysis was performed RESULTS: A complex of interactions between SARS-CoV-2 infection, metabolic disorders of neurotransmitters (acetylcholine, dopamine, serotonin and GABA), enkephalins and neurotrophins, micronutrients, chronic and acute inflammation, encephalopathy, cerebral ischemia and neurodegeneration, including demyelination, was described The most common neurological manifestation of COVID-19 is anosmia/ageusia arising as a result of ischemia, neurodegeneration, and/or systemic elevation of proinflammatory cytokine levels COVID-19 provokes ischemic stroke, Guillain-Barre syndrome, polyneuropathy, encephalitis, meningitis and parkinsonism Coronavirus infection significantly aggravates the course of multiple sclerosis and myopathies Possible roles of the human virome in the neuropathophysiology of COVID-19 are considered A case of clinical management of a patient with neurological complications of COVID-19 is described CONCLUSION: In the long term, COVID-19 stimulates neurodegenerative changes, which require specific programs of neurological rehabilitation It is advisable to use choline drugs and antihypoxants that are compatible with COVID-19 therapy
