Abstract
A novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has started in Wuhan, China, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The relationship between altered iron homeostasis and hyperinflammation may be hallmarks of COVID-19 disease. We aimed to compare some iron (ferritin and iron), inflammation (C-reactive protein [CRP], haemoglobin, lactate dehydrogenase [LDH], neutrophil) and coagulation (prothrombin time [PT], activated partial thromboplastin time [APTT], D-dimer, platelet) marker results of critical COVID-19 patients with healthy controls results. In this single center retrospective study, 50 critical patients diagnosed with COVID-19 were included, demographic, clinical characteristics, severity of disease and laboratory test results were elicited from electronic medical records and compared to 50 healthy people. A statistically significant increase in CRP, LDH, neutrophil, PT, APTT, D-dimer ferriti...
