General State of Stress

General State of Stress

The general state of stress within a material can be accurately depicted using a stress tensor. This tensor encapsulates the internal forces distributed within a material subjected to external forces or deformations.
Specifically, consider a tetrahedral element where one face, labeled XYZ, is perpendicular to the line OA, and the remaining faces align with the coordinate axes with point O as the origin. At any point, such as point O, the stress tensor can be used to determine the stress...

Psychological Responses to Stress

Psychological Responses to Stress

Psychological responses to stress encompass the various cognitive and emotional reactions individuals experience when faced with challenging or threatening situations, such as a job loss. Prolonged exposure to stressors can disturb emotional balance, increasing negative emotions (e.g., anxiety and sadness) and diminishing positive emotions (e.g., joy and satisfaction). These persistent emotional shifts are associated with an increased risk of both physical illness and mental health issues, such...

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Post-COVID condition (PCC) is associated with attention and executive function deficits. Computerized neuropsychological tests effectively identify these cognitive impairments in PCC patients.

Area of Science:

Neuroscience
Cognitive Psychology
Medical Diagnostics

Background:

Post-COVID condition (PCC) is linked to cognitive deficits, including attention, processing speed, executive function, and episodic memory.
Traditional paper-and-pencil assessments may lack sensitivity for detecting these subtle cognitive changes.
There is a need for more sensitive and applicable diagnostic tools for PCC patients.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate a comprehensive computerized neuropsychological battery for assessing cognitive function in PCC.
To characterize the specific cognitive profile of individuals with post-COVID condition.

Main Methods:

A cohort of 508 participants (227 PCC, 281 Healthy Controls) underwent cognitive assessment.
A multi-group confirmatory factor analysis was used to examine the battery's structure.
Partial invariance analysis identified cognitive processes differentiating PCC from healthy controls.

Main Results:

The computerized battery demonstrated a valid four-factor structure (attention, concentration, executive functions, episodic memory).
PCC patients showed significant impairments in attention, concentration, and executive functions compared to healthy controls.
Deficits in reaction time and divided attention were particularly prominent in the PCC group.

Conclusions:

Computerized neuropsychological assessment is a valid and sensitive tool for evaluating cognitive function in post-COVID condition.
The findings highlight specific areas of cognitive impairment in PCC, aiding in diagnosis and management.
This approach offers a promising method for improving diagnostic capacity in patients with PCC.
