    Long COVID Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption


    In a recent study published on Research Square* preprint servers, researchers examined the destruction of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) due to cognitive impairment associated with ongoing coronavirus disease (COVID). background

    Studies have demonstrated the microvascular injury observed in the brains of deceased patients with acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), including thinning of the laminae of endothelial cells in the olfactory bulb and leakage of fibrinogen. BBB-related changes and responses after exposure to SARS-CoV-2 have also been studied. In addition, evidence suggests that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein can effectively cross the rodent BBB, which can lead to cognitive changes as well as inflammation. However, cerebrovascular pathology in patients and related mechanisms require further research, particularly in long-standing COVID patients. The impact of COVID-19 on BBB changes also remains to be explored.

    The Study of Psychology is About Behavior, Mental Processes, and Personality


    The science of psychology is the study of behavior, mental processes, and personality. Psychology is a social science that uses scientific methods to study human behavior. Psychologists use many different approaches to better understand and predict human behavior.

    Anatomy

    Anatomy is the study of how bodies are put together. It’s also called histology or necropsy (from Greek words meaning “somewhat dead”).

    The first thing to know about anatomy is that it was originally a branch of medicine. Today, however, most people study anatomy because they want to be doctors or veterinarians—or even just because they enjoy learning about the human body in general!

    Pathology

    Anatomy is the branch of medicine dealing with the study of muscles, nerves, and bones. It includes both gross anatomy and microscopic anatomy.
