Diagnostic Value of Hematological and Biochemical Parameters Combinations for Predicting Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Suspected Patients.
The severe epidemiologic situation of COVID-19 due to the limited capacity of healthcare systems makes it necessary to improve the hospital management and early identification and stratification of patients. The aim of the study was to explore hematological and biochemical parameters at admission to the hospital as novel early predictors for diagnosis with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) among all suspected patients. ⋯ We found two novel predictors with promising predictive capacities for COVID-19 among all suspected patients: ANRI and AMRI. Our findings need to be confirmed in further studies.
