Neurologic manifestations of COVID-19 and viral test in cerebrospinal fluid
The patients in the present study had COVID-19 and neurologic involvement including a wide range of clinical manifestations. SARS-CoV-2 was detected in one-third of CSF samples, regardless of time interval between COVID-19 diagnosis and the onset of neurological signs. These conditions encompass various pathogenic pathways and the neuroinvasion potential of SARS-CoV-2 should be more studied.
