Introduction and aim. We aimed to investigate whether systemic immune inflammatory index (SII) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) were associated with short-term mortality in geriatric patients with SARS-CoV-2.Material and methods. Our study was designed retrospectively. The data of patients that presented to a single center. The primary outcome of the study was the diagnostic value of SII and PNI in predicting 28-day mortality in geriatric patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia. Results. 272 geriatric patients with SARS-CoV-2 included. The median PNI was 42.5, and the median SII was 687.6 (430–1404.2). In univariant analysis, PNI and SII has a significant relationship with mortality (p<0.001 and p=0.008, Mann-Whitney U test). PNI had an area under the curve (AUC) value of 0.680, which was significantly higher than that of SII (AUC: 0.6). The odds ratio of PNI (>40.1) and SII (<1.267) for 30-day mortality were determined as 1.12 , and 1. Conclusion. In conclusion, the blood tests used to calculate PNI and SII are routinely included in complete blood count and biochemistry tests that can be performed in every hospital. According to the results of the current study, the mortality group had significantly higher SII values and significantly lower.

Opis:
Introduction. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an acute infectious disease of the respiratory system caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). Most patients present with typical, respiratory symptoms. Common signs include cough, fever, dyspnea and shortness of breath. In this case we provide atypical indications of COVID-19, which may occur earlier than respiratory symptoms. Aim. This case is an example of an unusual course of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Description of the case. This article describes a case of a 63-year-old man and his wife, a 60-year old woman who were admitted to the emergency department with a few days’ history of gastrointestinal symptoms. Both patients presented with the digestive symptoms of nausea, diarrhea and loss of appetite. They denied abdominal pain and the loss of smell or taste. Due to suspicion of SARS-CoV-2 infection a nasopharyngeal swabs of both patients was taken. The results of real- time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction were positive. When the final diagnosis of COVID-19 was established they were transported to another hospital. Conclusion. COVID-19 may manifest with atypical indications such a nausea and diarrhea. An atypical indications of COVID-19 may occur earlier than respiratory symptoms. It is important for clinicians to remain alert.

Opis:
Introduction and aim. Coronavirus disease 2019 is characterised by cytokine storm and it was managed with repurposed drugs, however the effect of this treatment on cytokine storm is unknown. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of repurposed management on serum Th1 pro-inflammation cytokine (IFN-γ) and Th2 anti-inflammation cytokine (IL-4) in COVID-19 patients. Material and methods. The levels of IFN-γ and IL-4 were determined in sera from 45 COVID-19 patients at admission followed-up till discharge after repurposed treatment using ELISA. The mean levels and proportions above normal reference ranges of IFN-γ and IL-4 were compared in COVID-19 at admission and discharge. Results. The mean values of IFN-γ and IL-4 were significantly higher in COVID-19 patients at admission compared with discharged COVID-19 patients whereas IFN-γ:IL-4 ratio was significantly higher in discharged COVID-19 patients compared with admitted COVID-19 patients. Significantly higher proportion of COVID-19 patients at discharge had IFN-γ within the normalreference ranges compared with COVID-19 patients at admission whereas the proportions of COVID-19 patients at discharge and COVID-19 patients at admission having IL-4 within the normal reference ranges were the same. Conclusion. Cytokine storm was evidenced in COVID-19 patients at admission and repurposed treatment suppressed pro-inflammation cytokine (IFN-γ) in most discharged COVID-19 patients.

Introduction and aim. With the third wave of COVID-19 hitting the country, there is an urgent need to systematically document the clinical-epidemiological and vaccination details of the patients to formulate evidence-based decisions. So, this study was planned to describe the profile of patients attending the flu clinic of a tertiary care hospital in eastern India. Material and methods. This hospital-based cross-sectional study was done for 6 weeks (Jan-Feb 2022) among 623 patients using a pre-tested, structured questionnaire related to COVID-19. An unadjusted odds ratio was calculated and statistical significance was attributed to a p-value <0.05. Results. Out of 623 patients, almost 90% of the patients were vaccinated against COVID-19 with at least one dose of any vaccine. Cough (57.8%) was the most common complaint. Patients aged > 60 years and those having one or more than one comorbidity suffered from moderate-severe COVID-19 infection when compared to their counterparts (p<0.001). Also, 2.1% of fully vaccinated, 3.8% of one dose vaccinated and 10.9% of unvaccinated patients suffered from moderate-severe COVID-19. Conclusion. During the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, a smaller number of elderlies compared to the previous two waves were affected indicating age shifting. The severity of COVID-19 was less among vaccinated individuals compared to unvaccinated highlighting the importance of COVID-19 vaccination.

Introduction and aim. Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in adults (MIS-A) is a rare severe illness which is related to prior SARS-CoV2 infection in individuals>=21 years old. The condition was described few months after recognition of similar entity in children known as MIS-C (United Kingdom, April, 2020). The diagnosis of MIS-A is based on clinical symptoms andevidence of inflammation in laboratory markers. It is characterized by extrapulmonary organ dysfunction (cardiovascular, gastrointestinal), general symptoms such as fever, malaise, rash and deviations in blood tests (elevated level of ferritin, procalcitonin, CRP, IL-6, D-Dimer) with a previous or current SARS-CoV-2 infection. The purpose of this study is to present the syndrome on the basis of a clinical case example, to show the course of the disease, its symptoms and the result of applied treatment. Description of the case. The following case describes the clinical history, diagnostic process and applied treatment of 37-year old female patient who was admitted urgently to the hospital with a suspicion of sepsis originating from pharynx. The final diagnosis – MIS-A was settled after performing a broad panel of tests. Clinical picture was non- characteristic. The patient was successfully treated with steroids. Conclusion. MIS-A is a rare clinical entity linked with SARS-CoV-2 infection. The symptoms manifest from multiple organ systems and the diagnostic process may be challenging. The illness can be successfully treated with steroids.

Introduction. Clear understanding of duration of antibody based protective immunity following natural infection with SARSCoV-2 will give idea about the efficacy of proposed prophylactic vaccines against SARS-CoV-2, establishment of herd immunity and use of convalescent plasma. Aim. This study clarified the kinetics and magnitude of the initial antibody response against SARS-CoV-2 in a cohort of symptomatic COVID-19 patients from Ibadan, Nigeria. Material and methods. This study quantified immunoglobulin M (IgM) and G (IgG) antibodies recognizing the SARS-CoV-2 Spike (S) protein in 35 symptomatic COVID-19 patients at admission and at discharge using ELISA. Results. CovIgG was positive in none (0)% and 20% of COVID-19 patients at admission and at discharge respectively while CovIgM was positive in 54% and 69% of COVID-19 patients at admission and at discharged respectively. The level of CovIgG was significantly higher in COVID-19 patients at discharge compared with the level at admission while the level of CovIgM was insignificantly reduced in COVID-19 patients at discharge compared with the level at admission. Conclusion. The data indicates increased anti-SARS-COV-2 IgG Spike antibody in symptomatic COVID-19 at discharge, thus providing basis for antibody-based therapies to treat COVID-19 patients
