Molecular, cellular and network mapping of brain structural deviations in patients with Post-COVID19 syndrome

Daniel Martins, Ziyuan Cai, Nicole Mariani, Alessandra Borsini, Valeria Mondelli, Brandi Eiff, Silvia Rota, Daniel J. van Wamelen, Timothy R. Nicholson, Laila Rida, Adam Hampshire, Lia Fernandes, Fernando O. Zelaya, Aleksandra M. Podlewska, К. Ray Chaudhuri, , Mattia Veronese

This study identifies structural brain deviations in post-COVID-19 patients using normative modelling and network analysis, linking them to TMPRSS2 expression and neural circuit disruptions.
