this study aimed to research links between C-reactive protein (CRP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatinekinase (CK), 25-OH vitamin D (25-OHD), ferritin (FER), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL)cholesterol and clinical severity in patients from the western part of Romania, and compare their potential use as biomarkers for intensive care units (ICU) admission and death in children, adults and elders. this study is a retrospective cohort study, performed on patients positively diagnosed with COVID-19. Available CRP, LDH, CK 25-OH vitamin D, ferritin, HDL cholesterol and clinical severity were recorded. The following were assessed: median group differences, association, correlation and receiver operating characteristic. 381 children, 614 adults and 381 elders were studied between 1 March 2021 and 1 March 2022. Most children and adults presented mild symptomatology (53.28%, 35.02%, respectively), while most elders presented severe symptomatology (30.04%). ICU admission was 3.67% for children, 13.19% for adults and 46.09% for elders, while mortality was 0.79% for children, 8.63% for adults and 25.1% for elders. With the exception of CK, all other biomarkers showed some significant associations with clinical severity, ICU admission and death. CRP, LDH, 25-OH vitamin D, ferritin and HDL are important biomarkers for COVID-19 positive patients, especially in the pediatric population, while CK was mostly within normal ranges.
这项研究旨在研究罗马尼亚西部地区患者的 C 反应蛋白 (CRP)、乳酸脱氢酶 (LDH)、肌酸激酶 (CK)、25-羟维生素 D (25-OHD)、铁蛋白 (FER)、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇 (HDL)胆固醇与临床严重程度之间的关系,并比较它们作为儿童、成人和老年人重症监护病房 (ICU) 入院和死亡的潜在生物标志物的用途。本研究是一项回顾性队列研究,针对 COVID-19 阳性患者进行。记录了 CRP、LDH、CK 25-OH 维生素 D、FER、HDL 胆固醇和临床严重程度等可用数据。评估了中位数组差异、关联、相关性和接收者操作特征。2021 年 3 月 1 日至 2022 年 3 月 1 日期间研究了 381 名儿童、614 名成人和 381 名老年人。大多数儿童和成人表现出轻度症状(分别为 53.28%、35.02%),而大多数老年人表现出严重症状(30.04%)。儿童 ICU 入院率为 3.67%,成人 ICU 入院率为 13.19%,老年人 ICU 入院率为 46.09%,儿童死亡率为 0.79%,成人死亡率为 8.63%,老年人死亡率为 25.1%。除 CK 外,所有其他生物标志物均与临床严重程度、ICU 入院和死亡存在一定的关联。CRP、LDH、25-OH 维生素 D、FER 和 HDL 是 COVID-19 阳性患者的重要生物标志物,尤其是在儿科人群中,而 CK 大多在正常范围内。
