Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Inclusion criteria: Participants from the general population having knowledge of English and aged between 18 and 30 years. COVID-19 group: History of COVID-19 infection confirmed by RT-PCR or antigens test at least 1 year prior to the study will be included. The control group will consist of age-matched individuals who did not have any signs or symptoms of COVID-19 and were not infected by COVID-19.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Active COVID-19 symptoms, autonomic imbalance, cardiovascular diseases, previously diagnosed neuropsychological disorders, or a history of severe COVID-related hospitalization

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Extracellular water (ECW) and total body weight (TBW) will be measured using differential impedance at 50 kHz and 200 kHz, respectively. Subsequently, intracellular water (ICW) will be obtained by deduction of ECW from TBW. Body fat (in kg) and lean body mass (in kg): These parameters will also be expressed as percentages body fat % and lean %. Fat-Free Mass Index (FFMI) Body Fat Mass Index (BFMI) will be derived from manufacturer-programmed predictive equations. In the analysis, hydration fractions obtained from regression equations will be used to calculate lean body mass (LBW) from total body weight (TBW). Fat mass will then be determined by the difference between TBW and LBW.Timepoint: one year from 01-10-2024 to 01-10-2025
