TLDR
Together, these results are the first to show the direct impact that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein could have on brain endothelial cells; thereby offering a plausible explanation for the neurological consequences seen in COVID-19 patients.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the range and severity of neurologic involvement among children and adolescents associated with COVID-19 and found that patients with involvement were more likely to have underlying neurologic disorders (81 of 365 [22] compared with those without (113 of 1330 [8%]), but a similar number were previously healthy (195 [53%] vs 723 [54%]) and met criteria for multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (126 [35%] vs 490 [37%]).

Mid and long-term neurological and neuropsychiatric manifestations of post-COVID-19 syndrome: A meta-analysis

TL;DR: In this article , a systematic search of 1458 articles, 18 studies, encompassing a total of 10,530 patients, were analyzed to determine the prevalence of neurological and neuropsychiatric symptoms reported 12 weeks (3 months) or more after acute COVID-19 onset in adults.

Neuropathobiology of COVID-19: The Role for Glia

TL;DR: The neurotropism of SARS-CoV-2, the implication of neuroinflammation, adaptive and innate immunity, autoimmunity, as well as astrocytic and microglial immune and homeostatic functions in the neurological and psychiatric aspects of COVID-19 are discussed.

The chronic neuropsychiatric sequelae of COVID-19: The need for a prospective study of viral impact on brain functioning.

TL;DR: The Alzheimer's Association and representatives from more than 30 countries have formed an international consortium to study the short and long-term consequences of SARS-CoV-2 on the central nervous system (CNS) including the underlying biology that may contribute to AD and other dementias as discussed by the authors.
