| Core Tip |
Here, we conducted a case-control study and found out that early drug treatment is an important measure in the treatment of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). And the following indicators can help clinicians identify patients with severe COVID-19 at an early stage: an elevated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio; elevated aspartate transaminase, N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide, and creatinine levels; as well as decreased serum calcium level. |
