Comparative Analysis of Biochemical and Hematological Parameters in COVID-19 Patients

Abstract

Background: Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) or the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have been linked to cases of mild to severe respiratory illnesses. Infections with COVID-19 constitute a worldwide pandemic, according to the World Health Organization ("WHO"). Objective: This study aimed to investigate at the relationship between a biochemical factors and COVID-19 infection in Anbar City, Iraq. All of the patients have already been given a COVID-19 diagnosis and show signs and symptoms of it. Method: A study at a Fallujah teaching hospital confirmed a diagnosis of COVID-19 in 45 patients and 50 healthy individuals. Laboratory evaluations included white blood cell count (W.B Cells) hemoglobin (Hb), Platlate count, Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR)adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, LDH/ADA rat io, aspartate transaminase (AST) activity, alanine transaminase (ALT) activity, D-dimer, vitamin D, and C-reactive protein (CRP). Results: COVID-19 patients exhibit increased white blood cell count, concentration, ESR, ADA levels, and serum LDH levels, while maintaining unaffected platelet count, ALT, AST, and d-Dimer levels.
