correlation will give physicians the opportunity to take emergency measures until the critical deterioration of the patient’s condition.
Doctors of intensive therapy, the First affiliated hospital of Soochow University published a study that reported a new they developed the critical condition of patients in the ICU. In total, the study included 172 patients, of which 50.5% died in the intensive care unit within 28 days of receipt. As a SK.
after Analyzing the data, scientists have developed a formula for increased risk, which is represented as the ratio of interleukin-6 by lymphocytes (IL-6 /lymphocytes). In the conclusions of the article indicate that the calculations using the identified correlations have superior predictive value compared to individual measurement of changes in these parameters. A new token can also be used to identify patients with a high risk of death who require more timely therapy at an early stage COVID-19.
Chinese experts Found a correlation indeed shows a more severe course of the disease in patients with coronavirus infection. This is confirmed by local researchers, has informed “news” infectious disease physician, employee clinical research MHZ of the Department of AIDS and International center of Virology PFUR Elena Belova.
— communication is Revealed prognostically more severe course of the disease and the coefficient of interleukin-6 in relation to the number of lymphocytes. The higher it is, the prognosis is worse than patients disease suffer heavier — said the expert.
According to Yelena Belova, to monitor the condition of critically ill patients are in intensive care, now takes into account many parameters: the General analysis of blood, C-reactive protein, biochemical analysis of blood and data from computer tomography and many others.
researcher of the laboratory of analysis of indicators of population health and the digitization of health MIPT, Junior researcher of the laboratory of experimental surgery and Oncology of the Kursk state medical University David Naimzada have informed “news” that a new token of the serious condition has a number of advantages, as it is easy to measure.
— the Ratio of IL-6 and lymphocytes, obviously, is intended to reflect the imbalance of proinflammatory factors and to characterize the likelihood of “cytokine storm”. The greatest interest represents the availability used in the article markers. Lymphocytes can be taken everywhere, and the IL-6 response is determined by immunofluorescence, is also widely available in any city hospital, — said the expert.
moreover, to use this formula is possible not only to identify severe patients with coronavirus pneumonia. This token can be used in a broader sense: risk assessment in patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome, I’m sure David Naimzada.
Doctors emphasize that the assessment in hospitals patients with the coronavirus required system approach. As have informed “news” a Deputy head of the laboratory of analysis of indicators of population health and the digitization of health MIPT (University-participant of the project “5-100”) Stanislav Otstavnov, at the moment already used a number of predictors of various complications and death. The article of the Chinese scientists say that the complex index is more informative than its components individually.
— However, you need to understand that patients in resuscitation and intensive care, as a rule, suffer from a bouquet of other diseases (coronary heart disease, diabetes, Oncology), each of which has its own markers, and they themselves can lead to death, — said the expert. This probability increases during infection of a coronavirus.
the authors of scientific works emphasize that it has several limitations. In particular, the experience of only one hospital. Further studies are needed to compare the IL-6 / lymphocytes in patients from risk groups and other immunological parameters. The Ministry of health of the Russian Federation at the time of publication has not provided a response to the question whether such an analysis is in demand in Russia.
According to the CPS on the morning of 15 June in Russia revealed 8246 new cases of coronavirus in 83 regions. Recorded 143 death. A day in Russia has fully recovered 4489 people.
