Study Summary

Background: COVID-19 is an infection caused by a coronavirus. It can affect different parts of the body. For most people, it causes fevers or trouble breathing. Some people can have symptoms long after they recover. Researchers want to learn if there are signs of changes in the nervous system that may be related to COVID-19. Objective: To test the nervous system (the brain and nerves) in people who have had COVID-19 yet still have certain symptoms even after recovering. Eligibility: People age 18 and older who had COVID-19 and still have neurologic symptoms after they recovered from the initial infection. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical record review. Participants will have a neurological exam. They will complete pen-and-paper tests of their memory and thinking. They will complete a smell test with 'scratch-and-sniff' booklets. They will give blood samples. Participants will have magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain. Soft padding or a coil will be placed around their head. They will lie on a table that slides in and out of the MRI scanner. They will get a contrast dye through an intravenous (IV) catheter. Participants blood pressure, blood flow, skin temperature, sweating, and breathing will be monitored. Participants will have an electrocardiogram to measure heart function. Participants will blow into a mouthpiece for several seconds. Participants will lie on a table that has a motor. The motor tilts the table. Participants will have blood drawn through an IV as the table tilts. Participants will have a lumbar puncture. A small needle will be inserted into the spinal canal to obtain fluid. Participants may repeat some tests 8 weeks to 1 year later.
