International Journal of Clinical and Health Psychology: Some post-COVID-19 neurological syndrome symptoms may scare yourself

The outbreak of COVID-19 constitutes a public health crisis at the international level .

The neurological deficit may last for a while .
For example, some patients will experience dizziness, headache, fatigue, and loss of smell for a long time after the initial recovery period .
This long-term cognitive dysfunction is called Post-COVID-19 Nervous System Syndrome (PCNS) , which has attracted more and more attention from researchers

COVID-19 The outbreak of COVID-19 constitutes a public health crisis at the international level

A study by Daniella Winter and Yoram Braw from Ariel University in Israel evaluated the impact of diagnostic threats (i.
e.
information about the long-term neurological effects of new coronary pneumonia ) and hints on the recognized symptoms of recovered patients and healthy controls .

They randomly divided the recovered COVID-19 patients and healthy control groups into a diagnostic threat state (i.

e.
, the subject received information about neurological symptoms related to PCNS) and a control state (i.

Implied difference in total CFQ score between the diagnostic threat group (n = 155) and the control group (n = 144)

Rehabilitation patients (n=90) and healthy controls (n=210) described their cognitive functions after being randomly assigned to the following groups: (a) Experimental group: These participants read an article that discussed Long-term neurological symptoms in survivors of new coronary pneumonia
.

(b) Control group: These participants read an article and provide general information about the disease

Rehabilitation patients (n=90) and healthy controls (n=210) described their cognitive functions after being randomly assigned to the following groups: (a) Experimental group: These participants read an article that discussed Long-term neurological symptoms in survivors of new coronary pneumonia

Compared with the control group, the patients who recovered under the experimental conditions, rather than the healthy control group, agreed with more symptoms

COVID-19 Neurological symptoms after COVID-19 may be at least partially affected by non-neural factors such as the threat of diagnosis

Current research has contributed to diagnostic threats and informative literature by focusing on the current COVID-19 pandemic

In summary, current research suggests that information about COVID-19 may have clinical significance and, in some cases, may increase subjective neurological complaints due to the harmful effects of diagnostic threats
