About this study

Official title: An Investigation of Neurocognitive Functions and the Influencing Factors in Recovered Patients With COVID-19

This study is carried on in Wuchang Hospital in Wuhan, China. The investigators plan to recruit 80 patients with COVID-19 and 80 matched healthy control. Using the design of case-control study, the study aims to assess the neurocognitive functions such as executive function and attentional bias in recovered patients with COVID-19 under normal and stress conditions, and to analyze the influencing factors of neurocognitive functions, such as mental health conditions, inflammation indicators and cardiopulmonary function.
