🤖 Plain-English Summary

BACKGROUND: This study aims to examine the worldwide prevalence of post-coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) condition, through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Fatigue was the most common symptom reported with a prevalence of 0.23 , followed by memory problems (0.14; 95% CI, .10-.19).

🔑 Key Findings

METHODS: PubMed, Embase, and iSearch were searched on July 5, 2021 with verification extending to March 13, 2022.
Using a random-effects framework with DerSimonian-Laird estimator, we meta-analyzed post-COVID-19 condition prevalence at 28+ days from infection.
RESULTS: Fifty studies were included, and 41 were meta-analyzed.
