The influence of fatigue on neuropsychological performance in COVID-19 survivors dataset.

This dataset is complementary material for the article "The influence of post-COVID fatigue on neuropsychological performance", in this research we analyzed the relationship between the presence of post-COVID fatigue and neuropsychological performance in individuals who tested positive to SARS-CoV-2 and negative controls. Our research hypothesis was that post-COVID fatigue has a negative impact on neuropsychological performance. The referred data consists of 1) study participants' demographic and clinical characteristics, including SARS-CoV-2 status, determined by the COVID-19 Diagnostic Center at Autonomous University of Baja California (UABC) in Tijuana, Mexico, 2) normalized scores from subtests of BANFE-2 and NEUROPSI, the two neuropsychological assessment instruments performed by the participants, normalized scores were obtained according to manual procedures, in the case of BANFE-2, normalized scores range from 1 to 19, while in NEUROPSI, they range from -3 to +3, this dataset also contains 3) global parameters from the neuropsychological assessment, including total scores from BANFE-2 and NEUROPSI, as well as total errors in the assessment. Data was obtained through telephone interview. Neuropsychological data were analyzed using a multiple linear regression model that allowed to measure the influence of post-COVID fatigue, as well as demographical and clinical variables over neuropsychological performance, as explained in detail in the "steps to reproduce" section. We observed significant regression analyzes in the Alphabetical Arrangement Lists 1 and 2 and Consecutive Subtraction B (100-7) tasks from BANFE-2, and in BANFE-2 total score, NEUROPSI total score and total errors in the assessment, where in all cases significant coefficients were obtained for the variable "study condition" with a lower neuropsychological performance in participants with post-COVID fatigue compared to negative controls.
