Clusters of post-acute COVID-19 symptoms: a latent class analysis across 9 databases and 7 countries

<title>Abstract</title> Prior evidence has suggested the multisystem symptomatic manifestations of post-acute COVID-19 condition (PCC). Here we conducted a network cluster analysis of 24 WHO proposed symptoms to identify potential latent subclasses of PCC. Individuals with a positive test of or diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 after 09/2020 and with at least one symptom within ≥ 90 to 365 days following infection were included. Sub-analyses were conducted among people with ≥ 3 different symptoms. Summary characteristics were provided for each cluster. All analyses were conducted separately in 9 databases from 7 countries, including data from primary care, hospitals, national health claims and national health registries, allowing to validate clusters across the different healthcare settings. 787,078 persons with PCC were included. Single-symptom clusters were common across all databases, particularly for joint pain, anxiety, depression and allergy. Complex clusters included anxiety-depression and abdominal-gastrointestinal symptoms. Substantial heterogeneity within and between PCC clusters was seen across healthcare settings. Current definitions of PCC should be critically reviewed to reflect this variety in clinical presentation..
