Predictors of the severity of the course of COVID-19: demographic factors, clinical signs and laboratory markers.

The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has had a significant impact on global healthcare, with high mortality and severe complications remaining a major concern. Understanding the predictors of COVID-19 severity may improve patient management and outcomes. While considerable research has focused on the pathogenesis of the virus and vaccine development, the identification of reliable demographic, clinical and laboratory predictors of severe disease remains critical.

Catheter-associated urinary tract infections in critically Ill patients with COVID-19: a retrospective cohort study.

Background: Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CA-UTIs) pose a significant challenge in intensive care unit (ICU) patients with COVID-19.

Objective: The study aims to assess the prevalence of CA-UTIs, identify the causative pathogens and their resistance profiles, and determine the risk factors and outcomes associated with CA-UTIs in ICU patients with COVID-19.

Design: Single-center, retrospective cohort study.

Analysis of prognostic factors in critically ill patients with COVID-19.

The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a global health crisis. Mortality predictors in critically ill patients remain under investigation. A retrospective cohort study included 201 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) due to COVID-19.

Bacterial bloodstream infection in critically ill patients with COVID-19: a retrospective cohort study.

Background: Intensive care unit (ICU) patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), have a high risk of developing bloodstream infections (BSIs). However, the characteristics of and risk factors for BSIs in these patients remain unclear.

Objective: We aimed to identify prevalent causative pathogens of BSI and related factors in critically ill patients with COVID-19.
