Advancements and standardization of long COVID research methodologies would improve the quality of future research, and may allow further investigations into the similarities and differences between long COVID and ME/CFS.ĬOVID-19 ME/CFS chronic fatigue syndrome long-haul COVID-19 myalgic encephalomyelitis systemic review. If you have ME/CFS, you’ll have these three core symptoms: Reduced ability to do usual activities for six months or more because of fatigue Worsening of symptoms (difficulty thinking, problems sleeping, sore throat, headaches, feeling dizzy, or severe. The need for monitoring and treatment for patients post-COVID is evident. Conclusions: Early studies into long COVID symptomatology suggest many overlaps with clinical presentation of ME/CFS. Twenty-five out of 29 known ME/CFS symptoms were reported by at least one selected long COVID study. Long COVID symptoms reported by the included studies were compared to a list of ME/CFS symptoms compiled from multiple case definitions.
Results: Twenty-one studies were included in the qualitative analysis. The literature search was conducted in accordance with PRISMA methodology. Materials and Methods: A systemic literature search was conducted in MEDLINE and PsycInfo through to 31 January 2021 for studies related to long COVID symptomatology. A review study comparing and contrasting ME/CFS with reported symptoms of long COVID may yield mutualistic insight into the characterization and management of both conditions. Early reports from studies with patients with long COVID suggests a constellation of symptoms with similarities to another chronic medical illness-myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS).
