まとめ
PROMIS認知機能スコアで測定された自己申告による認知機能は、長期にわたるCOVIDを著しく予測します。スコアが低いほど、長期にわたるCOVID症状を経験するオッズが5~6倍増加していました。
科学分野:
- 神経科学;公衆衛生;感染症
背景:
- 長期にわたるCOVIDは、しばしば「ブレインフォグ」と呼ばれる、衰弱させる神経認知症状によって特徴付けられます。;既存の神経認知スクリーニングツールは、COVID後の認知機能障害を適切に検出できません。;長期にわたるCOVID患者における認知機能障害の効果的なスクリーニングは、臨床管理にとって重要です。
研究 の 目的:
- 自己申告による認知機能と神経心理学的検査の長期にわたるCOVIDの状態との関連性を比較すること。;持続的なCOVID後症状を持つ個人における認知機能障害の信頼できるスクリーニング方法を特定すること。
主な方法:
- 横断的コホート研究により、長期にわたるCOVIDの患者174人(67例、107対照)を分析しました。;二項ロジスティック回帰により、MoCA(Montreal Cognitive Assessment)スコアとPROMIS(Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System)8項目認知機能tスコアを使用して、長期にわたるCOVIDの状態をモデル化しました。;解析では、年齢を調整し、MoCAカットオフスコアに人種/民族の重み付けを組み込みました。
主要な成果:
- 低いPROMIS認知機能スコア(36.67の四分位下限)は、様々な年齢層で、MoCAスコアが「不問」であっても、長期にわたるCOVIDのオッズを5~7倍有意に増加させました。;人種/民族で重み付けされたMoCAカットオフスコアは、どの年齢でも長期にわたるCOVIDの状態を有意に予測しませんでした。;PROMIS認知機能スコアは、年齢やMoCAのパフォーマンスとは独立して、長期にわたるCOVIDとの強力な関連性を示しました。
結論:
- 自己申告によるPROMIS認知機能スコアは、長期にわたるCOVIDの強力な予測因子です。;これらの自己評価スコアは、長期にわたるCOVIDに関連する認知機能障害を特定する上で、従来のMoCA評価よりも効果的です。;PROMIS認知機能は、COVID後の状態の認知への影響をスクリーニングおよび評価するための敏感なツールを提供します。

Hypertension is asymptomatic and also referred to as the "silent killer" until it progresses to a severe stage or causes target organ disease. Patients may experience symptoms stemming from the strain on blood vessels and tissues in various organs or the heart's increased workload.Physical exams might show no abnormalities other than high blood pressure. Signs of vascular damage, when present, correspond to the organs supplied by the affected vessels, leading to target organ damage. For...
