Summary

COVID-19 infection causes a hypersensitive immune reaction and widespread inflammation in various organs of the body, especially through cytokines in the lungs. This cytokine-mediated widespread inflammation can also affect the parathyroid glands, resulting in impaired parathyroid secretion.

Researchers evaluated the levels of parathyroid hormone, calcium, phosphorus, and alkaline phosphatase in patients hospitalized for COVID-19 infection. Researchers excluded patients on intensive care therapy and patients with known parathyroid disease.

The researchers examined the association of parathyroid hormone secretion with COVID-19 disease, white blood cells, neutrophil / lymphocyte ratio, C reactive protein, fibrinogen, procalcitonin, ferritin, and D-dimer in these patients. The researchers compared the parathyroid hormone level of healthy people without COVID-19 infection and known parathyroid disease with the parathyroid hormone level of Covid-19 patients.

Conditions

  • COVID-19 Infection
  • Parathyroid Gland
  • Parathyroid Hormone
  • Calcium
  • Phosphorus
  • Alkaline Phosphatase

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Venous blood was collected for biochemistry testing

From the people in the healthy control group, 10 ml of venous blood was collected from the venous vein in the forearm of all individuals in the study. Parathyroid hormone, calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase levels were measured from this blood.
