Phenotyping of headache in COVID-19

Members of the LPI, in collaboratation with the Headache Units of the Hospital Clínico Universitario de Valladolid and the Hospital Clínico San Carlos (Madrid), have characterized diverse phenotypes of headache attributed to COVID-19. A phenotype with migraine characteristics and another one with tension-type headache features were found. Both phenotypes were associated with inflammation biomarkers (see Figure). Moreover, a possible third "COVID-19 specific" phenotype was hypothesized, possibly related to anosmia. The article with these results has been published in Frontiers in Neurology.
