چکیده: (1359 مشاهده)
Background: Coronary heart disease (CHD) is an underlying cardiac condition contributing to increased COVID-19 mortality and morbidity which can be assessed by several diagnosis methods including coronary artery calcification (CAC). The goal of this study was to find out if there were potential links between CAC, clinical findings, severity of COVID-19, and in-hospital outcomes.
Methods: This retrospective study evaluated 551 suspected patients admitted to teaching hospitals of the Babol University of Medical Sciences, Babol, Iran, from March to October 2021. Data included previous diseases, comorbidities, clinical examinations, routine laboratory tests, demographic characteristics, duration of hospitalization, and number of days under ventilation were recorded in a checklist.
Results: Findings of current study provide evidence of a significant relationship between coronary artery calcification (CAC) and in-hospital mortality. Additionally, we observed significant correlations between CAC and several clinical parameters including age, duration of hospitalization, pulse rate, maximum blood pressure, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), neutrophil count, white blood cell (WBC) count, and oxygen saturation. However, we did not observe a significant association between CAC and the severity index of COVID-19. In addition, logistic regression tests did not find a significant value of CAC to predict in-hospital mortality.
Conclusion: Our findings showed a significant relationship between CAC and in-hospital mortality.
