In addition, these parameters were evaluated for predictive value related to the severity of COVID-19. METHODS: The data of adult patients admitted with a suspected COVID-19 infection confirmed with real-time polymerase chain reaction testing of nasal and pharyngeal swab specimens were included in this retrospective study. Outpatient COVID-19-positive patients were enrolled in the mild group, hospitalized patients were classified in the moderate group, and patients admitted to the intensive care unit were categorized in the severe group. RESULTS: A total of 1213 COVID-19-positive patients and 1034 COVID-19-negative patients were included in the study. The IGLR, NLR, PLR, CRP, CAR, and ferritin levels were significantly higher, and the leukocyte, IG, neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, basophil, and eosinophil levels were significantly lower in the COVID-19-positive group than the COVID-19-negative group (p<0.05 for all). The severe group had higher median IG, IGLR, neutrophil, NLR, PLR levels than the mild, moderate, and COVID-19-negative groups (p<0.05 for all). Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed an area under the curve value for IGLR, CAR, CRP, IG, NLR, and ferritin of 0.868, 0.860, 0.834, 0.848, 0.845, 0.841, and 0.827, respectively, which differentiated severe COVID-19 patients from mild and moderate COVID-19 patients. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: The results suggest that the IGLR may be useful to distinguish severe COVID-19 patients at the time of admission. Further exploration is warranted to fully determine the potential value of the IGLR in disease monitoring.","PeriodicalId":176166,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Medical Biochemistry","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121223053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Evaluation of vitamin D binding protein and 25-hydroxy vitamin D metabolites in COVID-19 patients","authors":"C. Karakukcu","doi":"10.14744/ijmb.2023.54775","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.14744/ijmb.2023.54775","url":null,"abstract":"Objectives: The immunomodulatory roles of Vitamin D and Vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) are in interest with incidence or outcome of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19). This study aimed to investigate the association between the severity of COVID-19 with VDBP, total 25-hydroxy Vitamin D (25(OH)D), and its metabolites free Vitamin D (VDfree) and bioavailable Vitamin D (VDbio). Methods: Study group consisted of 68 COVID-19 patients and 20 healthy subjects. Patients were subgrouped as asymptotic, mild/moderately pneumonia, or severe pneumonia. Plasma total 25(OH)D was quantitated by liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry and serum VDBP by a polyclonal sandwich enzyme immunoassay. In addition, routinely used laboratory parameters in follow-up were recorded. VDfree and VDbio were calculated using total 25(OH)D, VDBP, and albumin levels. Results: Plasma total 25(OH)D (13.3±5.7 vs. 30.3±13.3 ng/dL), VDfree (2.18 [1.52–3.44] vs. 4.34 [3.74–6.48] pg/mL), and VDbio (1.86 [1.09–2.81] vs. 4.28 [3.45–6.34] nmol/L) levels were lower in COVID-19 patients (p<0.001). Despite the insignificance of 25(OH)D and metabolites between COVID-19 severity subgroups, serum VDBP was highest in mild/ moderately pneumonia (601.8±278.6 ng/mL) and lowest in severe pneumonia (427.9±147.2 ng/mL) (p<0.001). In addition, VDBP was positively correlated with lymphocyte counts (B:87.9, r2=0.068, p=0.031) and negatively correlated with D-Dimer levels (B:−0.024, r2=0.081, p=0.032). Conclusion: COVID-19 patients have lower plasma 25(OH)D levels and lower 25(OH)D metabolites VDfree, VDbio which are physiologically active. In addition, serum VDBP concentrations significantly decrease in critically ill patients which needs further studies to be associated in the etiopathogenesis of the disease severity.

Objectives: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNA molecules that control gene expression by causing messenger RNA to degrade after transcription. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder that involves the gradual deterioration and death of motor neurons, resulting in muscle weakness, paralysis, and eventual fatality. A prominent feature of ALS is the presence of mitochondrial dysfunction. The identification of miRNAs associated with mitochondrial dysfunction in ALS through in silico approaches can offer valuable insights into underlying processes and targets for therapeutic interventions","PeriodicalId":176166,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Medical Biochemistry","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129263975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
