Hypocalcemia is commonly in critically ill patients and studies have shown that hypocalcemia is prevalent in patients with COVID-19. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the prognostic performance of hypocalcemia in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
We performed a systematic literature search on PubMed, Scopus, and Embase with keywords "SARS-CoV-2″ OR″COVID-19″ OR ″2019-nCoV" AND "hypocalcemia" up until 10 December 2020. The key exposure was hypocalcemia, defined as serum calcium below study-defined cut-off points. The main outcome was poor outcome, which was a composite of mortality and severity. The effect estimate of the main outcome was reported as odds ratio (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (95% CI). We also generate sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative likelihood ratio (PLR & NLR), diagnostic odds ratio (DOR), and area under curve (AUC).
There are 2032 patients from 7 studies included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. The incidence of poor outcome in this study was 26%. Serum calcium was lower in patients with poor outcome (mean difference -0.173 mmol/L [-0.259, -0.087], p < 0.001; I: 31.3%). Hypocalcemia was associated with poor outcome (OR 3.19 [2.02, 5.06], p < 0.001; I: 32.86%); with sensitivity of 0.74 [0.53, 0.88], specificity of 0.54 [0.29, 0.77], PLR of 1.6 [1.1, 2.3], NLR of 0.49 [0.35, 0.66], DOR of 3 [2, 5], and AUC of 0.70 [0.66, 0.74]. In this pooled analysis, the post-test probability was 36% in patients with hypocalcemia and 15% in patients without hypocalcemia.
Hypocalcemia was associated with poor outcome in COVID-19 patients.

低钙血症在危重症患者中很常见,研究表明 COVID-19 患者中低钙血症很常见。本荟萃分析旨在评估低钙血症在 2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)患者中的预后表现。
我们使用关键词“SARS-CoV-2”或“COVID-19”或“2019-nCoV”和“低钙血症”在 PubMed、Scopus 和 Embase 上进行了系统的文献检索,检索时间截至 2020 年 12 月 10 日。关键暴露是低钙血症,定义为血清钙低于研究定义的截断值。主要结局是不良结局,是死亡率和严重程度的综合指标。主要结局的效应估计值以比值比(OR)及其 95%置信区间(95%CI)表示。我们还生成了敏感性、特异性、阳性和阴性似然比(PLR 和 NLR)、诊断比值比(DOR)和曲线下面积(AUC)。
本系统评价和荟萃分析共纳入了来自 7 项研究的 2032 名患者。本研究中不良结局的发生率为 26%。不良结局患者的血清钙水平较低(平均差值-0.173mmol/L[-0.259,-0.087],p<0.001;I:31.3%)。低钙血症与不良结局相关(OR 3.19[2.02,5.06],p<0.001;I:32.86%);敏感性为 0.74[0.53,0.88],特异性为 0.54[0.29,0.77],阳性似然比为 1.6[1.1,2.3],阴性似然比为 0.49[0.35,0.66],诊断比值比为 3[2,5],AUC 为 0.70[0.66,0.74]。在这项汇总分析中,低钙血症患者的后验概率为 36%,无低钙血症患者的后验概率为 15%。
低钙血症与 COVID-19 患者的不良结局相关。
