Year: 2021

Type: article

Abstract: . COVID-19 is an infection induced by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, that has resulted in a worldwide sanitary crisis. COVID-19 has a wide variety of clinical features, ranging from asymptomatic infection to minor to severe pneumonia. Different laboratory markers get altered in these patients, according to recent studies, and are therefore valuable as biomarkers to detect disease development and identify patients who may present a severe and/or deadly clinical condition. This article reviews biochemistry and immunology biomarkers that are changed in COVID-19 positive individuals, as well as inflammatory markers, and their influence on liver, heart, kidney and pancreatic functions markers' levels, as well as their significance in the disease's progression.
