Correlation analysis of clinical and laboratory markers in COVID-19 and acute cerebrovascular accident

Abstract

Coagulopathies developing with COVID-19 are a serious problem. Increased fibrinogen levels, activation of coagulation, a direct damaging effect of the virus on the endothelium, and increased interaction of the platelet with the vascular endothelium play an important role in the development of thrombotic complications and the occurrence of acute cerebral circulatory disorders. Case histories of COVID-19 patients and those with secondary CHF were analysed. Among the biochemical blood parameters in COVID-19, an increased level of D-dimer, which reflects the severity of the course of coronavirus infection, as well as CRP and ferritin were revealed more frequently. Results: Among biochemical blood parameters in COVID-19, an increase in D-dimer level, which reflects the severity of the course of coronavirus infection, as well as CRP and ferritin, is more frequently detected. In correlation analysis, a positive correlation was observed between the level of ferritin, CRP and stage of CT as well as between the level of D-dimer and the number of platelets
