简要总结
Patients with Covid-19 (Coronavirus disease 19) may experience multiple neurological symptoms .
18F-FDG PET-CT ( Positons EmissionTomography coupled with a Computer Tomography with flurodesoxyglucose labelled with fluor 18), which reflects neuronal glycolytic metabolism, shows early variations in neuronal function.
Moreover the tropism of Covid-19 is essentially pulmonary and the hypothesis of this study is with 18F-FDG PET-CT it's possible to study the relationship between cerebral metabolism and the metabolism of pulmonary lesions following Covid-19 infection.
详细描述
Patients with Covid-19 may experience multiple neurological symptoms including confusion and headaches (non-specific neurological symptoms), while others develop specific neurological manifestations, including stroke, related to increased bleeding disorders, seizures and signs of encephalitis.
The coronavirus enters the central nervous system through the olfactory bulb, causing olfactory and taste dysfunctions. These symptoms may appear before, during or even after the general symptoms.
Indeed, 18F-FDG PET-CT, which reflects neuronal glycolytic metabolism, shows early variations in neuronal function, even in the absence of morphological changes visualized by MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging).
Moreover the tropism of Covid-19 is essentially pulmonary and it is accepted that acute pulmonary lesions are independent risk factors for cerebral hypoxia. Furthermore, the cytokine storm due to COVID-19 and the resulting hyperinflammation state may induce a transient increase in pressure, with endothelial and vascular lesions and increased capillary permeability, and promote pulmonary oedema leading to secondary cerebral damage.
The lung/brain relationship is therefore essential to be studied in pathologies whose main tropism is the lung.

研究组 & 干预措施
Patients enrolled in Neurocog-Covid study in Nancy hospital
Young patients (< 65 year old) who contracted VIDOC 19 and were hospitalized for less than 7 days during the first wave, and who present cognitive disorders may be definitively included in the Neurocog-Covid study if their neuropsychological assessment is abnormal. They will then have a prescription for a cerebral MRI and will be enrolled in the TEP-Covid study. If they accept, they will receive a 18F-FDG PET-CT .
干预措施: 18F-FDG PET-CT (Device)
结局指标
主要结局

时间窗: 13 months
Volumes and topographies of brain with a decrease in glycolytic metabolism in 18F-FDG PET-CT compared to the brain metabolism of a control population.
次要结局
- To correlate the brain functions impacted on the neuropsychological assessment to the brain metabolism in 18F-FDG PET-CT in patients included in the Neurocog-Covid study at the Nancy Hospital(13 months)
- Correlating brain metabolism to the volume of damage to the lung sequelae of Covid-19.(13 months)
- To compare the sensitivity of detection of cerebral abnormalities in MRI and 18F-FDG PET-CT in patients included in Neurocog-Covid study at the hospital of Nancy(13 months)
