Biochemical Laboratory Findings on COVID-19 Patients: Pathogen-Disease Relationship

The COVID-19 process, which started in Wuhan, China, is one of the most significant viral diseases characterized by high mortality and catching millions of people around the world since it appears. In this study, a total of 189 patients, 85 outpatients, and 104 inpatients were diagnosed with COVID-19 with positive PCR tests examined, admitted to the COVID 1-2-3 services of the Faculty of Medicine of Kafkas University between November 1 and November 16, 2020, has been examined. The relationship between laboratory findings and pathogen disease in the diagnosis, treatment and course of the disease has been tried to be revealed. The majority of patients with fever, reflux diabetes and tumours are over the age of 65 (61.7%), and 68 (36.2%) of them are women and 120 (63.8%) are men. Demographic characteristics of the patients, biochemical parameters such as serum ferritin, iron, troponin T, D-dimer levels, and hemogram and coagulation results were evaluated. Findings will contribute to clinicians and biochemists about the prognosis and mortality of COVID-19, its course in some other diseases, and the ways to be followed in treatment.
