Increased phosphorylated tau (pTau-181) is associated with neurological post-acute sequelae of coronavirus disease in essential workers: a prospective cohort study before and after COVID-19 onset

Increased phosphorylated tau (pTau-181) is associated with neurological post-acute sequelae of coronavirus disease in essential workers: a prospective cohort study before and after COVID-19 onset

New longitudinal data from essential workers suggests a neurological Long COVID subtype is associated with a marked rise in plasma pTau-181 (a biomarker often used in Alzheimer’s disease research) compared with pre-infection baseline.
