>The scale of the observed deficit was not insubstantial; the 0.47 SD global composite score reduction for the hospitalized with ventilator sub-group was greater than the average 10-year decline in global performance between the ages of 20 to 70 within this dataset. It was larger than the mean deficit of 480 people who indicated they had previously suffered a stroke (?0.24SDs) and the 998 who reported learning disabilities (?0.38SDs).

>For comparison, in a classic intelligence test, 0.47 SDs equates to a 7-point difference in IQ.
