The long-term effects of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on physical fitness are unclear, and the impact of vaccination on that relationship is uncertain.
We compared survey responses in a 1-year study of US military service members with (n = 1923) and without (n = 1591) a history of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. We fit Poisson regression models to estimate the association between history of SARS-CoV-2 infection and fitness impairment, adjusting for time since infection, demographics, and baseline health.
The participants in this analysis were primarily young adults aged 18-39 years (75%), and 71.5% were male. Participants with a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection were more likely to report difficulty exercising (38.7% vs 18.4%; < .01), difficulty performing daily activities (30.4% vs 12.7%; < .01), and decreased fitness test (FT) scores (42.7% vs 26.2%; < .01) than those without a history of infection. SARS-CoV-2-infected participants were at higher risk of these outcomes after adjusting for other factors (unvaccinated: exercising: adjusted risk ratio [aRR], 3.99; 95% CI, 3.36-4.73; activities: aRR, 5.02; 95% CI, 4.09-6.16; FT affected: aRR, 2.55; 95% CI, 2.19-2.98). Among SARS-CoV-2-positive participants, full vaccination before infection was associated with a lower risk of post-COVID-19 fitness impairment (fully vaccinated: exercise: aRR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.70-0.95; activities: aRR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.64-0.91; FT: aRR, 0.87; 95% CI, 0.76-1.00; boosted: exercise: aRR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.51-0.74; activities: aRR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.41-0.65; FT: aRR, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.49-0.70).
In this study of generally young, healthy military service members, SARS-CoV-2 infection was associated with lower self-reported fitness and exercise capacity; vaccination and boosting were associated with lower risk of self-reported fitness loss.
2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)对身体健康的长期影响尚不清楚,疫苗接种对这种关系的影响也不确定。
在一项为期1年的研究中,我们比较了有(n = 1923)和没有(n = 1591)严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)感染史的美国军人的调查回复。我们采用泊松回归模型来估计SARS-CoV-2感染史与身体机能损害之间的关联,并对感染后的时间、人口统计学特征和基线健康状况进行了调整。
本分析中的参与者主要是18 - 39岁的年轻人(75%),71.5%为男性。有SARS-CoV-2感染史的参与者比没有感染史的参与者更有可能报告运动困难(38.7%对18.4%;P <.01)、日常活动困难(30.4%对12.7%;P <.01)以及体能测试(FT)分数下降(42.7%对26.2%;P <.01)。在对其他因素进行调整后,感染SARS-CoV-2的参与者出现这些结果的风险更高(未接种疫苗者:运动方面:调整风险比[aRR],3.99;95%置信区间[CI],3.36 - 4.73;日常活动方面:aRR,5.02;95% CI,4.09 - 6.16;FT受影响方面:aRR,2.55;95% CI,2.19 - 2.98)。在SARS-CoV-2呈阳性的参与者中,感染前全程接种疫苗与COVID-19后身体机能损害风险较低相关(全程接种疫苗者:运动方面:aRR,0.81;95% CI,0.70 - 0.95;日常活动方面:aRR,0.76;95% CI,0.64 - 0.91;FT方面:aRR,0.87;95% CI,0.76 - 1.00;接种加强针者:运动方面:aRR,0.62;95% CI,0.51 - 0.74;日常活动方面:aRR,0.52;95% CI,0.41 - 0.65;FT方面:aRR,0.59;95% CI,0.49 - 0.70)。
在这项针对一般年轻、健康军人的研究中,SARS-CoV-2感染与自我报告的身体机能和运动能力较低相关;接种疫苗和接种加强针与自我报告的身体机能丧失风险较低相关。
