          CAR-T Brain Fog Mirrors Chemo and COVID

          Patients receiving CAR-T cell therapy often report brain fog, and new research shows this cognitive impairment stems from the therapy itself, not just the cancer or other treatments. A mouse study revealed that CAR-T-induced immune responses activate brain microglia, triggering inflammation that damages myelin-producing cells, reducing signal efficiency in the brain.

          Boosting Iron May Ease Brain Fog

          New research shows that women with healthy blood iron levels during menopause perform better on cognitive tasks like memory and attention. The study found that sufficient blood iron was linked to better brain function without increasing harmful iron deposits in the brain.

          Long COVID Impairs Exercise Capacity and Cognition for Years

          A study of nearly 1,000 people with post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS) revealed that two-thirds still experienced significant symptoms, including reduced exercise capacity and cognitive performance, two years after infection. Persistent symptom clusters included fatigue, neurocognitive disturbances, and post-exertional malaise, with worse outcomes in individuals with obesity, lower education, or severe initial infections.

          Exercise During Chemotherapy Boosts Cognitive Function

          A recent clinical trial found that women who began an aerobic exercise program during chemotherapy for breast cancer reported improved cognitive function and quality of life compared to those who received standard care. Participants in the exercise group felt they could better concentrate and remember things, helping to reduce the effects of "chemo-brain."

          COVID-19 Vaccines May Reduce Virus-Induced Memory Problems

          COVID-19-induced cognitive impairment is linked to the protein IL-1β. Researchers found that vaccination can reduce brain inflammation and memory loss in rodent models. This suggests vaccines may lower the risk of long COVID brain fog. More research is needed to confirm these findings in humans.

          Long COVID Brain Fog: Impact and Coping Strategies

          Long COVID, affecting 7% of U.S. adults, often includes debilitating brain fog. Symptoms like forgetfulness and difficulty focusing affect daily life and work. A new study highlights that while brain fog often resolves, it significantly impacts mental function. Effective coping strategies and treatments are crucial for managing this condition.

          Long COVID’s Brain Fog Mysteries Unlocked

          Researchers made a groundbreaking discovery in the study of Long COVID, identifying that the integrity of blood vessels in the brain is compromised in patients experiencing brain fog and cognitive decline. The study utilized a novel MRI technique to reveal "leakiness" in the brain's blood vessels, providing an objective method to distinguish patients with neurological symptoms of Long COVID.

          Blood Clues to Long-COVID Brain Fog Discovered

          Researchers have discovered two blood biomarkers that could predict cognitive deficits, including "brain fog," up to a year after a COVID-19 diagnosis. The study analyzed data from over 1,800 hospitalized patients and identified high levels of fibrinogen and d-dimer, proteins linked to blood coagulation, as being highly correlated with cognitive issues.

          Long COVID Linked to Lower Brain Oxygen Levels, Cognitive Problems and Psychiatric Symptoms

          Long COVID is linked to reduced oxygen uptake in the brain, a new study reports. Researchers say the finding is significant as a lack of sufficient oxygen supply may be one of the mechanisms that cause brain fog, cognitive problems, and an increased risk of depression and anxiety in long COVID patients.
