Article Synopsis
- LDL levels in COVID-19 patients decline and exhibit phenotypic changes during the disease, which are linked to worse clinical outcomes.
- A study with hospitalized COVID-19 patients found high levels of oxidized LDL (ox-LDL) were associated with increased mortality, especially for those whose ox-LDL levels rose significantly within the first week of hospitalization.
- Lipidomic analysis revealed specific lipid changes in LDL, with a distinct pattern of lipid species varying between survivors and non-survivors, suggesting that monitoring these changes could help predict patient prognosis.
