Introduction: the association between the development of a thromboembolic event following COVID-19 vaccination is very rare, it represents less than 0.1% of vaccinated cases. Until now this association remains to be discussed.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a global pandemic and public health emergency. With a high infectivity and dissemination rate, cardiovascular complications have been observed and associated with a poorer prognosis. COVID-19 appears to be both a risk and prognosis factor for infective endocarditis.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Cardiac injury has been linked to a poor prognosis during COVID-19 disease. Nevertheless, the risk factors associated are yet to be thoroughly investigated.
Objectives: We sought to compare demographical characteristics and in-hospital outcomes in patients infected by the SARS-CoV-2 with and without cardiac injury, to further investigate the prevalence of acute cardiac injury as well as its impact on their outcomes in COVID-19-patients.
Article Synopsis
- Proinflammatory and hypercoagulable states in COVID-19 patients lead to elevated D-Dimer levels, which are observed even in the absence of pulmonary embolism (PE).
- This study aimed to compare D-Dimer levels in COVID-19 patients with and without PE and determine an optimal cut-off value to predict PE occurrence.
- Results showed that a D-Dimer level of 2600 ng/mL can predict PE in COVID-19 patients with 90.3% sensitivity, highlighting its potential use for guiding imaging tests like CTPA.
Introduction: Diabetes is the most common of comorbidity in patients with SARS-COV-2 pneumonia. Coagulation abnormalities with D-dimer levels are increased in this disease.
Objectifs: We aimed to compare the levels of D-dimer in diabetic and non-diabetic patients with COVID 19.
