Article Synopsis
- * Results showed that higher NLR values were significantly associated with increased mortality rates at both 30 days (5.2%) and 180 days (10.8%) post-surgery, especially in patients aged 65 and younger.
- * The findings suggest that preoperative NLR can help predict mortality risk, with both NLR and age being significant factors in determining patient outcomes after emergency surgery.
Purpose: Endothelial damage and angiogenesis are fundamental elements of neovascularisation and fibrosis observed in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Here, we aimed to evaluate whether early endothelial and angiogenic biomarkers detection predicts mortality and major cardiovascular events in patients with COVID-19 requiring respiratory support.
Methods: Changes in serum syndecan-1, thrombomodulin, and angiogenic factor concentrations were analysed during the first 24 h and 10 days after COVID-19 hospitalisation in patients with high-flow nasal oxygen or mechanical ventilation.
