including memory loss and concentration difficulties, was experienced by COVID-19 survivors29. These cognitive symptoms were associated with the presence of hypometabolic clusters in the brains of patients with PACS, as demonstrated using fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET)30. In...
The clinical manifestations of the neuropsychiatric system, which primarily include memory loss, sensorimotor aberration, cognitive disorder, paresthesia, loss of smell or taste, dizziness, and audiovestibular symptoms,60,61,62,63,64,65,66 seem to be the prominent features of long COVID, severely ...
While we can estimate and quantify the loss of contact learning time at schools, it is more difficult to quantify actual learning loss. Helpful here is the modelling developed by researchers such as Maldonado and De Witte (2020). They build on studies which look at the effects on test scores...
The 56-year-old, who caught the disease in spring 2020, still had not recovered about 18 months later when he killed himself at his home near Dallas, having lost his health, memory and money. "No one cares. No one wants to take the time to listen," Taylor wrote in a ...
After each lecture, professors were required to upload on Moodle a set of tests, which students had to complete by the end of the next day. The observed effects of the transfer to online lectures that could potentially affect students' learning can be classified into three groups: changes in...
The standard long short-term memory (LSTM) [30] is employed to encode the CCPM sequence data. More specifically, LSTM generates hidden states hτ based on the history C(t − W, τ] for any τ ∈ (t − W, t], where t ∈ (W, Tmax − P]. The...
The GFC involved a lowering of credit standards during a boom, which often occurs, as lenders lose institutional memory of past credit lessons as discussed above. In this case, the banks expanded credit availability at relatively low interest rates to subprime mortgage borrowers. This practice appea...
Similar to information-seeking, the effects of COVID-19 concern on memory cannot be explained by mere anxiousness: we found no significant association between non-specific anxiety and memoryb = −0.04, 95% PI = [−0.08,0.005] (Fig.3d; Eqn.S8). ...
The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, has taken a catastrophic toll on society, health-care systems and the economy. Notably, COVID-19 has been shown to be associated with a higher mortality rate in men than in women. This disparit
“My last memory of my child was the top of her head and her hair when she was wheeled (to the ICU) on a trolley bed. She didn’t even look back at me. It still pains me,” she said. Yang accused the government of covering up the severity of the initial outbreak, and says ...
