Article Synopsis
- The severity of lung involvement is the key factor for predicting outcomes in patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia, with CA 15-3 serving as a potential prognostic marker for lung damage and fibrosis.
- CA 15-3 levels were found to be significantly higher in patients who experienced severe complications, including death, the need for intensive care, or requiring supplemental oxygen after discharge.
- Elevated CA 15-3 levels (over 34.5 U/mL) strongly indicate a higher risk for a complicated hospital course, suggesting it could help identify patients at greater risk for adverse outcomes early on.
