Differentiating influenza from COVID-19 in patients presenting with suspected sepsis.

ABSTRACT: There is a need for a quick assessment of severely ill patients presenting to the hospital. The objectives of this study were to identify clinical, laboratory and imaging parameters that could differentiate between influenza and COVID-19 and to assess the frequency and impact of early bacterial co-infection. A prospective observational cohort study was performed between February 2019 and April 2020. A retrospective cohort was studied early in the COVID-19 pandemic. Patients suspected of sepsis with PCR-confirmed influenza or SARS-CoV-2 were included. A multivariable logistic regression model was built to differentiate COVID-19 from influenza. In total, 103 patients tested positive for influenza and 110 patients for SARS-CoV-2, respectively. Hypertension (OR 6.550), both unilateral (OR 4.764) and bilateral (OR 7.916), chest X-ray abnormalities, lower temperature (OR 0.535), lower absolute leukocyte count (OR 0.857), lower AST levels (OR 0.946), higher LDH (OR 1.008), higher ALT (OR 1.044) and higher ferritin (OR 1.001) were predictive of COVID-19. Early bacterial co-infection was more frequent in patients with influenza (10.7% vs. 2.7%). Empiric antibiotic usage was high (76.7% vs. 84.5%). Several factors determined at presentation to the hospital can differentiate between influenza and COVID-19. In the future, this could help in triage, diagnosis and early management.

scRNAseq of Antigen Presenting Cells in severe COVID-19 patients

Project description:We isolated PBMC from healthy, moderate ( Oxygen supply < 10L/min), and severe (Oxygen supply >= 10L/min) COVID-19 patients after their admission to Intensive Care Units (ICU), at two timepoints (Day-1 and Day-4); and performed both CD14+ Monocyte enrichment followed by a Pan-DC kit to retrieve all Antigen Presenting Cell (APC) subsets from these age-matched patients. We performed single cell RNA sequencing using 10X technology on the single cell suspensions and constracted a high-resolution map of 81,643 Antigen Presenting Cells (APC) from the three COVID-19 severity groups. We were able to retrieve all the known six APC subsets and deciphered the altered pathways and ati-viral mechanisms, correlated with the disease severity.

Differentiating coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) from influenza and dengue.

Project description:The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) presents with non-specific clinical features. This may result in misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis, and lead to further transmission in the community. We aimed to derive early predictors to differentiate COVID-19 from influenza and dengue. The study comprised 126 patients with COVID-19, 171 with influenza and 180 with dengue, who presented within 5 days of symptom onset. All cases were confirmed by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction tests. We used logistic regression models to identify demographics, clinical characteristics and laboratory markers in classifying COVID-19 versus influenza, and COVID-19 versus dengue. The performance of each model was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Shortness of breath was the strongest predictor in the models for differentiating between COVID-19 and influenza, followed by diarrhoea. Higher lymphocyte count was predictive of COVID-19 versus influenza and versus dengue. In the model for differentiating between COVID-19 and dengue, patients with cough and higher platelet count were at increased odds of COVID-19, while headache, joint pain, skin rash and vomiting/nausea were indicative of dengue. The cross-validated area under the ROC curve for all four models was above 0.85. Clinical features and simple laboratory markers for differentiating COVID-19 from influenza and dengue are identified in this study which can be used by primary care physicians in resource limited settings to determine if further investigations or referrals would be required.

A vital sign-based prediction algorithm for differentiating COVID-19 versus seasonal influenza in hospitalized patients.

Project description:Patients with influenza and SARS-CoV2/Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infections have a different clinical course and outcomes. We developed and validated a supervised machine learning pipeline to distinguish the two viral infections using the available vital signs and demographic dataset from the first hospital/emergency room encounters of 3883 patients who had confirmed diagnoses of influenza A/B, COVID-19 or negative laboratory test results. The models were able to achieve an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC AUC) of at least 97% using our multiclass classifier. The predictive models were externally validated on 15,697 encounters in 3125 patients available on TrinetX database that contains patient-level data from different healthcare organizations. The influenza vs COVID-19-positive model had an AUC of 98.8%, and 92.8% on the internal and external test sets, respectively. Our study illustrates the potentials of machine-learning models for accurately distinguishing the two viral infections. The code is made available at https://github.com/ynaveena/COVID-19-vs-Influenza and may have utility as a frontline diagnostic tool to aid healthcare workers in triaging patients once the two viral infections start cocirculating in the communities.

Transcriptional Differences Between COVID-19 and Sepsis

Project description:Although some studies reported the comprehensive mRNA expression analysis of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) using blood samples to understand its pathogenesis, the characteristics of RNA expression in COVID-19 and sepsis have not been compared. We compared the transcriptome expression of whole blood samples from patients with COVID-19 caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and patients with sepsis caused by other bacteria who entered the intensive care unit to clarify the COVID-19-specific RNA expression and understand its pathogenesis. Transcriptomes related to mitochondria were upregulated in COVID-19, whereas those related to neutrophils were upregulated in sepsis. However, the transcriptomes related to neutrophils were upregulated in both COVID-19 and sepsis compared to in healthy controls, whereas the mitochondrial transcriptomes were upregulated in COVID-19 and downregulated in sepsis compared to in healthy controls. Moreover, sepsis showed sub-optimal intrinsic apoptotic features compared with COVID-19. The transcriptome expression of COVID-19 has been examined in vitro but has not been widely validated using human specimens. This study improves the understanding of the pathogenesis of COVID-19 and can contribute to the development of treatments.

Unresolved Immune Dysfunction is Lethal in Both COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 Sepsis

Project description:In this prospective observational cohort study, we found transcriptional evidence that persistent immune dysfunction was associated with 28-day mortality in both COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 septic patients. COVID-19 patients had an early antiviral response but became indistinguishable on a gene expression level from non-COVID-19 sepsis patients a week later. Early treatment of COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 sepsis ICU patients should focus on pathogen control, but both patient groups also require novel immunomodulatory treatments, particularly later during ICU hospitalization, independent of admission diagnosis. Some T1 samples were uploaded in GSE185263 and were not re-uploaded in this series.

Burden of Influenza and Respiratory Syncytial Viruses in Suspected COVID-19 Patients: A Cross-Sectional and Meta-Analysis Study.

Project description:Non-SARS-CoV-2 respiratory viral infections, such as influenza virus (FluV) and human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), have contributed considerably to the burden of infectious diseases in the non-COVID-19 era. While the rates of co-infection in SARS-CoV-2-positive group (SCPG) patients have been determined, the burden of other respiratory viruses in the SARS-CoV-2-negative group (SCNG) remains unclear. Here, we conducted a cross-sectional study (São José do Rio Preto county, Brazil), and we collected our data using a meta-analysis to evaluate the pooled prevalence of FluV and RSV among SCNG patients. Out of the 901 patients suspected of COVID-19, our molecular results showed positivity of FluV and RSV in the SCNG was 2% (15/733) and 0.27% (2/733), respectively. Co-infection with SARS-CoV-2 and FluV, or RSV, was identified in 1.7% of the patients (3/168). Following our meta-analysis, 28 studies were selected (n = 114,318 suspected COVID-19 patients), with a pooled prevalence of 4% (95% CI: 3-6) for FluV and 2% (95% CI: 1-3) for RSV among SCNG patients were observed. Interestingly, FluV positivity in the SCNG was four times higher (OR = 4, 95% CI: 3.6-5.4, p < 0.01) than in the SCPG. Similarly, RSV positivity was significantly associated with SCNG patients (OR = 2.9, 95% CI: 2-4, p < 0.01). For subgroup analysis, cold-like symptoms, including fever, cough, sore throat, headache, myalgia, diarrhea, and nausea/vomiting, were positively associated (p < 0.05) with the SCPG. In conclusion, these results show that the pooled prevalence of FluV and RSV were significantly higher in the SCNG than in the SCPG during the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Emergency Department Management of COVID-19 Suspected Patients. An International Perspective.

Project description:Objectives: In December 2019, an invasive viral outbreak, the Corona Virus Disease 19 spread to the whole world. An international cross-sectional study was conducted to evaluate how healthcare workers in Emergency departments dealt with this pandemic. Methods: A questionnaire was sent to 180 healthcare workers around the world during May and June of the year 2020. Results: A total of 134 HCW from 23 countries responded with a majority of Emergency physicians (36.8%). The PCR testing is available in 72.9% of the hospitals. Different architectural strategies were used to isolate suspected cases in the Emergency department (ED). Half of the institutions would not allow visitors, while the other half, restricted visiting hours and the number of visitors. Triage for suspected patients relied in 82.8% on symptoms. Almost 98% of HCW used a combination of mask, gloves, gown and face shield. Around 65% of the HCW have a tendency to discharge more patients from the ED than what they were used to. Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic made a major change within the emergency departments worldwide.
