Decreased Functioning and Contents of Worries Associated with Anxiety or Depression Symptom Levels Within Patients Hospitalized with COVID-19 Infection.

Background: High levels of anxiety and depression symptoms have been reported in patients with COVID-19 compared to the general population. These symptoms were related to variables such as gender, age, and education level with anxiety/depression levels. We aimed to determine the relationship between anxiety and depression symptoms and epidemic-related decreased functioning, worry, and quality of life (QoL).

Comparison of inflammation markers and severity of illness among patients with COVID-19, acute psychiatric disorders and comorbidity.

Background And Objectives: Neutrophil, lymphocyte counts, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), D-dimer, fibrinogen, and comorbid illness are associated with the course and prognosis of COVID-19. However, the course of acute severe psychiatric disorders overlapping with COVID-19 infection was not investigated and remained as an unclarified research area. This study aimed to demonstrate inflammatory markers and the course of patients suffering from both conditions.
