AbstractThe sequential mixed-mode strategy has become standard practice in the survey management of longitudinal studies, in order to achieve consistently high response rates. To realise this aim in a cost-efficient way, a first mode is often an online questionnaire, towards which the target persons are pushed, and a second mode is then a telephone interview, offered to those who do not respond to the initial mode. However, the rationale for using the sequential mixed-mode plus “push-to-web” strategy to reduce the burden of choosing between survey modes, in order to maximise survey participation, could be undermined if there is an overlapping field period during which the target persons could choose between two or more offered modes. The use of reminders might be useful in solving this problem of competing risks. In the context of a multiple-panel study, this question was investigated by utilising longitudinal paradata from the fieldwork, as well as procedures of event history analysis that are adequate for the analysis of processes with competing risks. First, for a web survey as the initial mode and computer-assisted telephone interview (CATI) as the subsequent mode, it was found that the idea of a sequential mixed-mode plus “push-to-web” strategy does work even in the case of competing risks in the choice of a survey mode. Second, it was confirmed that reminders are a useful instrument for stimulating panellists to choose the running survey mode. Third, and finally, it was found that this feature of survey management is effective in countering panellists’ procrastination in regard to responding to a survey.

Abstract Neuropsychiatric complications associated with coronavirus disease 2019 caused by the Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) are increasingly appreciated. While most studies have focussed on severely affected individuals during acute infection, it remains unclear whether mild COVID-19 results in neurocognitive deficits in young patients. Here, we established a screening approach to detect cognitive deficiencies in post-COVID-19 patients. In this cross-sectional study, we recruited 18 mostly young patients 20–105 days (median, 85 days) after recovery from mild to moderate disease who visited our outpatient clinic for post-COVID-19 care. Notably, 14 (78%) patients reported sustained mild cognitive deficits and performed worse in the Modified Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status screening test for mild cognitive impairment compared to 10 age-matched healthy controls. While short-term memory, attention and concentration were particularly affected by COVID-19, screening results did not correlate with hospitalization, treatment, viremia or acute inflammation. Additionally, Modified Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status scores did not correlate with depressed mood or fatigue. In two severely affected patients, we excluded structural or other inflammatory causes by magnetic resonance imaging, serum and cerebrospinal fluid analyses. Together, our results demonstrate that sustained sub-clinical cognitive impairments might be a common complication after recovery from COVID-19 in young adults, regardless of clinical course that were unmasked by our diagnostic approach.

Pasien yang sembuh dari Covid-19 memiliki beberapa keluhan pada daya ingat. Virus corona dapat menembus ke SSP (Sistem Saraf Pusat) dan cairan serebrospinal dalam waktu kurang dari seminggu. Pemeriksaan histopatologi otak pasien Covid-19 yang meninggal menunjukkan potensi SARS-CoV-2 menginfeksi ke sistem saraf pusat (SSP). Neuro inflamasi juga dapat merusak BBB (Blood Brain Barier). Setelah BBB terganggu, sitokin dapat masuk ke SSP dan menyebabkan aktivasi mikroglial dan stres oksidatif, yang menyebabkan gangguan kognitif. Metode Penelitian dilakukan secara cross sectional random sampling terhadap pasien di Ruang Isolasi Covid-19 Rumah Sakit Tingkat II. Prof. dr. J.A Latumeten Ambon selama periode Maret 2020 sampai dengan Maret 2021 dengan melakukan wawancara menggunakan Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status-M (TICS-M) yang terdiri dari 22 pertanyaan dengan total nilai 50. Dari 167 pasien, terdapat 54 pasien yang bersedia di wawancara dan terdapat 28 pasien yang memiliki kecenderungan gangguan cognitive ringan dengan rentang usia 31-40 tahun. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa nilai TICS-M pada pasien pasca Covid-19 berhubungan dengan usia, namun tidak berhubungan dengan jenis kelamin dan lamanya pendidikan.

The Status

The article aims at presenting the educational offer and the needs of vocational education institutions in Zachodniopomorskie voivodship. The survey within the framework of the research project Diagnosis of the offer and needs of educational institutions in Zachodniopomorskie voivodship in the area of vocational education, was conducted in 2014 in cooperation with the Voivodship Labour Office in Szczecin. The study was performed with diagnostic survey method using PAPI (traditional interview) and CATI (computer assisted telephone interview) techniques. The survey covered basic vocational and technical schools, institutions preparing for work, specialised secondary and post-secondary schools as well as universities. The respondents answered 24 questions concerning the potential of vocational education, its didactic needs and infrastructure, as well as cooperation with employers in Zachodniopomorskie voivodship. The results of the survey showed, i.a. that the institutions of vocational education in Zachodniopomorskie are underfunded.
