Ideas in this flowchart

  • Persistent symptoms and functional limitation in 2021
  • Greater functional limitation defined as PCFS ≥ 2
  • PCFS ≥ 2 was associated with a higher burden of persistent cardiorespiratory and neurocognitive symptoms
  • The 2021 multivariable model identified symptoms associated with greater functional limitation
  • Chest tightness (aOR 6.18) and depressive symptoms (aOR 5.81) showed the strongest associations
  • Resting dyspnea (aOR 4.09) and anxiety disorder (aOR 4.05) were associated with greater limitation
  • Joint pain (aOR 2.85) and back pain (aOR 2.45) were associated with greater limitation
  • Fatigue (aOR 2.36) and hypertension (aOR 2.25) were associated with greater limitation
  • Dyspnea on exertion, memory impairment, and sleep disorder were associated with greater limitation
  • Age, sex, and obesity showed no effect after adjustment
  • Supplementary Table S14 provided evidence for the 2021 symptom-burden association
  • Table 2 presented final multivariable logistic regression models for 2021 and 2024

"In 2021, greater functional limitation (PCFS ≥ 2) was associated with a higher burden of persistent cardiorespiratory and neurocognitive symptoms (Supplementary Table S14).\n\nIn the multivariable model of persistent symptoms in 2021 (Table 2), chest tightness (aOR, 6.18; 95% CI 2.55–14.98), depressive symptoms (aOR, 5.81; 95% CI 2.46–13.69), resting dyspnea (aOR, 4.09; 95% CI 1.89–8.83), anxiety disorder (aOR, 4.05; 95% CI 1.71–9.58), joint pain (aOR, 2.85; 95% CI 1.48–5.47), back pain (aOR, 2.45; 95% CI 1.09–5.50), fatigue (aOR, 2.36; 95% CI 1.24–4.48), hypertension (aOR, 2.25; 95% CI 1.12–4.52), dyspnea on exertion (aOR, 2.17; 95% CI 1.16–4.04), memory impairment (aOR, 2.15; 95% CI 1.20–3.85), and sleep disorder (aOR, 2.04; 95% CI 1.11–3.75) were associated with greater functional limitation. No effect of demographic factors, including age, sex, and obesity, was observed after adjustment (Table 2).\n\nTable 2 Final Multivariable Logistic Regression Models of Associations Between Persistent Symptoms and Functional Limitation (PCFS ≥ 2), 2021 and 2024."
