Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:Limitations: Our study has important limitations. Firstly, all patients came from an area of the city of Genoa. Secondly, the functional capacity evaluation was conducted three months after hospital discharge, with the patients unsupervised in the meantime and no data available about the baseline condition prior to COVID-19. Moreover, no direct structural evaluation at the muscle level was performed.
