Another more evidence of the new coronal virus infection of brain injury: "Alzheimer's Magazine" recently introduced that the risk of Alzheimer's disease in the infection of the new crown virus was 50%-80%higher than the control group in one year.

This study collected medical records of 6.2 million people over 65 years old in the United States. They were not diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease at first, of which 400,000 were infected by the new crown virus. Compared with finding, the risk of Alzheimer's disease was increased from 0.35%to 0.68%from 0.35%of the infected one year. Adjusting other influencing factors can be obtained, the infection of the new crown has increased the risk of the onset of 69%, of which the comparative risk of groups over 85 and women's groups increased by 89%and 82%.

This article is a observation study that does not provide specific pathogenesis, but consistent with other recent research conclusions. A study in the United States in February this year stated that the new crown pneumonia's brain appeared in the brain that was similar to Alzheimer's disease patients; a June Denmark Studies stated that the risk of Alzheimer's disease even increased by 3.5 times.

According to experts, the new coronal virus can cause inflammation and related diseases in the central nervous system, and Alzheimer's disease is one of them. Alzheimer's disease has increased a large number of disease risks. If the incidence continues to increase, it will further exacerbate the pressure of various chronic disease management. nice

The long -term sequelae of the new crown are now appearing one by one, and we need to continue to monitor the impact of infection on the risks of various diseases. In terms of treatment, it should be treated with new drug treatment guidance.
