The predictive value of serum level of cystatin C for COVID-19 severity

ABSTRACT: To investigate the potential prognostic value of Serum cystatin C (sCys C) in patients with COVID-19 and determine the association of sCys C with severe COVID-19 illness. We performed a retrospective review of medical records of 162 (61.7 ± 13.5 years) patients with COVID-19. We assessed the predictive accuracy of sCys C for COVID-19 severity by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. The participants were divided into two groups based on the sCys C cut-off value. We evaluated the association between high sCys C level and the development of severe COVID-19 disease, using a COX proportional hazards regression model. The area under the ROC curve was 0.708 (95% CI 0.594–0.822), the cut-off value was 1.245 (mg/L), and the sensitivity and specificity was 79.1% and 60.7%, respectively. A multivariable Cox analysis showed that a higher level of sCys C (adjusted HR 2.78 95% CI 1.25–6.18, p = 0.012) was significantly associated with an increased risk of developing a severe COVID-19 illness. Patients with a higher sCys C level have an increased risk of severe COVID-19 disease. Our findings suggest that early assessing sCys C could help to identify potential severe COVID-19 patients.

Early Predicting COVID-19 Severity Value with Extracellular Vesicles and Extracellular RNAs

Project description:The SARS-CoV-2 outbreak started on December 2019 in China and rapidly spread worldwide. Clinical manifestations of Coronavirus-disease 2019 (COVID-19) vary broadly, ranging from asymptomatic infection to acute respiratory failure and death, yet the underlying mechanisms and predictive biomarkers for this high variability are still unknown. Emerging evidence has shown that circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) and extracellular RNAs (exRNAs) are functionally involved in a number of physiologic and pathologic processes. To test the hypothesis that these extracellular components are a key determinant of severity in COVID-19, we collected 31 serum samples from mild COVID-19 patients at admission in single center. After standard therapy without corticosteroids, 9 of 31 patients became severe COVID-19. We analyzed exRNA profiles from the 31 serums and 10 healthy controls for predicting COVID-19 severity value.

Serum cystatin C and CRP are early predictive biomarkers for emergence of hypoxia in COVID-19.

Project description:BackgroundIn Japan, during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, patients with non-hypoxia are recommended to recuperate at home or in pre-hospital facilities. However, it was observed that unexpected hypoxia may occur and become severe subsequently in patients whose symptoms were initially expected to improve naturally. The aim of this study is to validate biomarkers that can predict at an early stage the emergence of hypoxia in COVID-19 patients without hypoxia.MethodsWe retrospectively enrolled 193 patients with COVID-19, excluding patients with hypoxia and severe disease from the onset. Participants were classified into two groups according to the emergence of hypoxia during the clinical course, and the laboratory data were compared to identify biomarkers that could predict early the emergence of hypoxia.ResultsThe areas under the curve for serum cystatin C (CysC) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels for the emergence of hypoxia during the clinical course were higher than those for other biomarkers (CysC, 0.84 and CRP, 0.83). Multivariate analysis showed that high serum CysC and CRP levels were associated with the emergence of hypoxia during the clinical course.ConclusionsElevated serum CysC and CRP levels were associated with the emergence of hypoxia during the clinical course in COVID-19 patients without hypoxia. These findings may help determine the need for hospitalization in initially non-hypoxic COVID-19 patients.

Predictive Value of Serum Cytokeratin 19 Level for the Feasibility of Conserving Ovaries in Endometrial Cancer.

Project description:Objective: To determine the predictive value of cytokeratin 19 (CK19) for evaluating the safety of ovarian preservation in patients with endometrial cancer (EC). Methods: Five hundred and seventeen EC patients hospitalized from November 2010 to June 2016 were reviewed retrospectively. Pre-operative tumor biomarkers including CA125, HE4, CK19, and CA19-9 were obtained. Predictive biomarkers associated with ovarian metastasis were selected using univariate and multivariate Logistic regression. The cut-off values were determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox multivariate regression model was used to perform survival analysis. Results: Among clinical parameters and biomarkers included, age > 65, type II EC, CA125 ≥ 35 u/ml, CK19 > 3.3 ng/ml, and myometrial invasion ≥ 50% depth appeared as significant predictors of the risk of ovarian involvement in univariable logistic analysis. In multivariable analysis, CK19 > 3.3 ng/ml (OR = 11.541, 95%CI: 1.968-67.668, P = 0.007) and Type II EC (OR = 8.336, 95%CI: 1.456-47.722, P = 0.017) were independent risk predictors of ovarian metastasis in pre-menopausal women. In pre-menopausal women with Type I EC (n = 142), CK19 level could satisfactorily predict the risk of ovarian metastasis (AUC = 0.860, 95%CI: 0.792-0.912, P < 0.001), and when the cut-off point was set as 2.45 ng/ml, the negative predictive value and negative likelihood ratio were 99% and 0.19, with the maximum Youden index of 0.598. Conclusions: The present study advocates the necessity of incorporating serum CK19 measurement into the pre-operative evaluation of EC, especially as extension of current standard approach with ovarian preservation counseling.

Serum metabolomics profiling identifies new predictive biomarkers for disease severity in COVID-19 patients

Project description:Over the last three years, numerous groups have reported on different predictive models of disease severity in COVID-19 patients. However, almost all such models, which relied on serum biomarkers, clinical data or a combination of both, were subsequently deemed as cumbersome, inadequate and/or subject to bias. Moreover, although serum metabolomics profiling has shown significant differences among patients with different degrees of disease severity, the use of serum metabolomics profiling to identify prognostic biomarkers has, so far, been neglected. Herein, we sought to develop highly predictive models of disease severity by integrating routine laboratory findings and serum metabolomics profiling which identified several metabolites including K_4_aminophenol, acetaminophen and cytosine as potential biomarkers of disease severity in COVID-19 patients. Two models were subsequently developed and internally validated on the basis of ROC-AUC values. The predictive accuracy of the first model was 0.998 (95% CI: 0.992 to 1.000) with an optimal cut-off risk score of 4 biomarkers from among 8 linearly-related biomarkers (D-dimer, ferritin, neutrophil counts, Hp, sTfR, K_4_aminophenol, acetaminophen and cytosine). The predictive accuracy of the second model was 0.996 (95% CI: 0.989 to 1.000) with an optimal cut-off risk score of 3 biomarkers from among 6 biomarkers (D-dimer, ferritin, neutrophil counts, Hp, sTfR and cytosine). The two models are of high predictive power, need a small number of variables that can be acquired at minimal cost and effort, and can be applied independent of non-empirical clinical data. In conclusion, the metabolomics profiling data and the modeling work stemming from it, as presented here, could further explain the cause of COVID-19 disease prognosis and patient management.

SnoRNAs and miRNAs expression profiles underlying COVID-19 disease severity

Project description:The causative organism, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), exhibits a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations in disease-ridden patients. Differences in the severity of COVID-19 ranges from asymptomatic infections and mild cases to the severe form, leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and multiorgan failure with poor survival. MiRNAs can regulate various cellular processes, including proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation, by binding to the 3′UTR of target mRNAs inducing their degradation, thus serving a fundamental role in post-transcriptional repression. Alterations of miRNA levels in the blood have been described in multiple inflammatory and infectious diseases, including SARS-related coronaviruses. We used microarrays to delineate the miRNAs and snoRNAs signature in the peripheral blood of severe COVID-19 cases (n=9), as compared to mild (n=10) and asymptomatic (n=10) patients, and identified differentially expressed transcripts in severe versus asymptomatic, and others in severe versus mild COVID-19 cases. A cohort of 29 male age-matched patients were selected. All patients were previously diagnosed with COVID-19 using TaqPath COVID-19 Combo Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, Massachusetts), or Cobas SARS-CoV-2 Test (Roche Diagnostics, Rotkreuz, Switzerland), with a CT value < 30. Additional criterion for selection was age between 35 and 75 years. Participants were grouped into severe, mild and asymptomatic. Classifying severe cases was based on requirement of high-flow oxygen support and ICU admission (n=9). Whereas mild patients were identified based on symptoms and positive radiographic findings with pulmonary involvement (n=10). Patients with no clinical presentation were labelled as asymptomatic cases (n=10).

Decreased serum level of sphingosine-1-phosphate: a novel predictor of clinical severity in COVID-19.

Project description:The severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a crucial problem in patient treatment and outcome. The aim of this study is to evaluate circulating level of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) along with severity markers, in COVID-19 patients. One hundred eleven COVID-19 patients and forty-seven healthy subjects were included. The severity of COVID-19 was found significantly associated with anemia, lymphocytopenia, and significant increase of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, ferritin, fibrinogen, aminotransferases, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), C-reactive protein (CRP), and D-dimer. Serum S1P level was inversely associated with COVID-19 severity, being significantly correlated with CRP, LDH, ferritin, and D-dimer. The decrease in S1P was strongly associated with the number of erythrocytes, the major source of plasma S1P, and both apolipoprotein M and albumin, the major transporters of blood S1P. Not last, S1P was found to be a relevant predictor of admission to an intensive care unit, and patient's outcome. Circulating S1P emerged as negative biomarker of severity/mortality of COVID-19 patients. Restoring abnormal S1P levels to a normal range may have the potential to be a therapeutic target in patients with COVID-19.

Unbiased identification of clinical characteristics predictive of COVID-19 severity.

Project description:There is currently limited clinical ability to identify COVID-19 patients at risk for severe outcomes. To unbiasedly identify metrics associated with severe outcomes in COVID-19 patients, we conducted a retrospective study of 835 COVID-19 positive patients at a single academic medical center between March 10, 2020 and October 13, 2020. As of December 1, 2020, 656 (79%) patients required hospitalization and 149 (18%) died. Unbiased comparisons of all clinical characteristics and mortality revealed that abnormal pH (OR 8.54, 95% CI 5.34-13.6), abnormal creatinine (OR 6.94, 95% CI 4.22-11.4), and abnormal PTT (OR 4.78, 95% CI 3.11-7.33) were most significantly associated with mortality. Correlation with ordinal severity scores confirmed these associations, in addition to associations between respiratory rate (Spearman's rho = -0.56), absolute neutrophil count (Spearman's rho = -0.5), and C-reactive protein (Spearman's rho = 0.59) with disease severity. Unsupervised principal component analysis and machine learning model classification of patient demographics, laboratory results, medications, comorbidities, signs and symptoms, and vitals are capable of separating patients on the basis of COVID-19 mortality (AUC 0.82). This retrospective analysis identifies laboratory and clinical metrics most relevant to predict COVID-19 severity.

Quantitative LC-MS study of compounds found predictive of COVID-19 severity and outcome

Project description:<h4><strong>INTRODUCTION: </strong>Since the beginning of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in December 2019 multiple metabolomics studies have proposed predictive biomarkers of infection severity and outcome. Whilst some trends have emerged, the findings remain intangible and uninformative when it comes to new patients.</h4><h4><strong>OBJECTIVES: </strong>In this study, we accurately quantitate a subset of compounds in patient serum that were found predictive of severity and outcome.</h4><h4><strong>METHODS: </strong>A targeted LC-MS method was used in 46 control and 95 acute COVID-19 patient samples to quantitate the selected metabolites. These compounds included tryptophan and its degradation products kynurenine and kynurenic acid (reflective of immune response), butyrylcarnitine and its isomer (reflective of energy metabolism) and finally 3’,4’-didehydro-3’-deoxycytidine, a deoxycytidine analogue, (reflective of host viral defence response). We subsequently examine changes in those markers by disease severity and outcome relative to those of control patients’ levels.</h4><h4><strong>RESULTS & CONCLUSION: </strong>Finally, we demonstrate the added value of the kynurenic acid / tryptophan ratio for severity and outcome prediction and highlight the viral detection potential of ddhC.</h4>
