Severe Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is Associated With Elevated Serum Immunoglobulin (Ig) A and Antiphospholipid IgA Antibodies

Omar Hasan Ali et al.

Summary: This study found that severe COVID-19 patients have a vigorous total IgA response and higher levels of IgA antibodies, which may be associated with complications of severe illness. Additionally, severe illness in COVID-19 patients is significantly correlated with elevated levels of anticardiolipin antibodies, suggesting a potential link to systemic autoimmunity.

Summary: This study discusses the location and causes of acute cardiovascular death during the COVID-19 pandemic. The analysis showed an increase in acute cardiovascular deaths, with a significant proportion occurring in the community not related to COVID-19. Delays in seeking medical help or undiagnosed COVID-19 may have contributed to these deaths.

Rushad Patell et al.

Summary: The study found that hospitalized COVID-19 patients who received pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis had lower rates of thrombosis. Patients receiving intermediate-dose thromboprophylaxis or therapeutic anticoagulation had similar rates of thrombosis and bleeding compared to those who received standard-dose pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of incidence, prognosis, and laboratory indicators of venous thromboembolism in hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease 2019

Yandong Liu et al.

Summary: The occurrence of VTE, DVT, and pulmonary embolism is substantial among hospitalized patients with COVID-19, especially those with severe COVID-19. Patients with severe COVID-19 and VTE have significantly greater mortality compared with similar patients without VTE. An increased D-dimer level might indicate the occurrence of VTE in patients with COVID-19.

Stefania Nannoni et al.

Summary: Acute cerebrovascular diseases occur in 1.4% of COVID-19 patients, with acute ischemic stroke being the most common manifestation. Patients with COVID-19 are more likely to have pre-existing vascular risk factors and higher mortality rates compared to those without cerebrovascular diseases.
