Scientists examined how prevalent self-reported cognitive symptoms were in individuals with post-COVID-19 condition as compared to individuals who had prior severe SARS-CoV-2 infections but had not developed post-COVID-19 condition.
By Dr. Chinta SidharthanFeb 19 2024Reviewed by Danielle Ellis, B.Sc. In a recent study published in the journal JAMA Network Open, a team of scientists examined how prevalent self-reported cognitive symptoms were in individuals with post-coronavirus disease 2019 condition as compared to individuals who had prior severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infections but had not developed post-COVID-19 condition.
About the study In the present study, the researchers used data from a survey conducted across the United States during two COVID-19 waves among individuals who had reported post-COVID-19 condition symptoms and those who reported complete recovery after a SARS-CoV-2 infection. The data was collected between December 2022 and January 2023 and then again from April to May 2023 across 50 U.S. states.
A nine-item questionnaire was also used to assess depressive symptoms in patients. Additionally, the patients were asked to describe how these cognitive post-COVID-19 symptoms interfered with their daily activities. The employment status of the participants was also recorded and categorized as full-time, contract, part-time, self-employed, homemaker, student, retired, or unemployed.
Related StoriesThe number of individuals with post-COVID-19 condition who reported experiencing cognitive impairments was significantly higher than those who reported cognitive symptoms but did not have post-COVID-19 condition. Furthermore, women, younger individuals, and people with lower income levels showed a higher prevalence of cognitive symptoms than those in other sociodemographic groups.
