Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Aim: Several studies have investigated the association between biomarkers and short-term prognosis in the coronavirus infectious disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, data on the long-term prognosis are limited. To determine the predictive value of systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and C-reactive protein (CRP) to albumin ratio (CAR) for in-hospital and 1-year outcomes during COVID-19. Material and Method: The primary outcomes were in-hospital and 1-year mortality. The secondary outcomes were the intensive care unit (ICU) need at admission and transfer to the ICU later on. Results: The study included 449 (53.6%) males and 389 (46.4%) females with a mean age of 53.8±18.5 years. Previously known heart failure (HF), COVID-19-related HF, acute renal failure (ARF), diabetes mellitus, hypertension, coronary artery disease (CAD), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)/asthma, high CO-RADS scores (>4), low ejection fraction (EF), higher CAR and SII were associated with an increased in-hospital and 1-year mortality (p
