What mechanisms explain how COVID-19 infection modifies the clinical spectrum of existing neurological disorders?

OPEN

The abstract states that COVID-19 can modify clinical presentations of manifested neurological disorders but provides no mechanistic explanation. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for managing neurological patients during viral infections and could reveal novel disease-modifying pathways.
