The Adaptive Role of Entorhinal Cortical Thickness in Post-COVID 19 Cognitive Impairment.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Only limited information is still available concerning cognitive dysfunctions and cortical thickness in individuals who recovered from mild COVID-19 infections and did not require hospitalization. Our aim was to evaluate if the highly adaptive potential of cortical thickness might play a critical role in COVID-19-related cognitive disorder in a compensatory manner. Methods: Fifteen individuals with no history of medical, neurological, or psychiatric disease and with positive COVID-19 test results, and sixteen healthy age and education-matched healthy controls identified from the official hospital health system were evaluated in terms of cognitive scores using Alzheimer Disease's Assessment Scale-cognitive subscale (ADAS-Cog) and brain MRI cortical thickness measurements using FreeSurfer, Version 7.4.0. Results: An increased cortical thickness in the right entorhinal cortex (EC) and impaired cognition (increased ADAS score) were observed in the post-COVID 19 group as compared to the controls confirmed by the student's t test (respectively, p=0.006, p<0.001).The apparent correlation observed between cognitive impairment and increased entorhinal cortical thickness in our COVID-19 patients might suggest a continuum pathophysiology between healthy and COVID-19 affected brains that was not evident in previous COVID-19 cases with cognitive impairment. Conclusion: Our findings of increased entorhinal cortical thickness, together with impaired cognitive scores, may indicate a flexible role of EC thickness in compensatory mechanisms of cognition.
