Description
Most studies of COVID-19 blood markers focus on patients already in hospital, yet choices about who needs admission happen much earlier. Andrea Alemany and co-authors, in 2024, tested thirty-nine immune and vessel markers in outpatients with mild or moderate illness. Their nested study drew on a trial of convalescent plasma in patients aged fifty and up.
They compared forty-two patients who were admitted within twenty-eight days with forty-two who were not. Nine markers measured in the first week already separated the groups well, and three stood out across both admission and severe disease. One marker best predicted admission, and another best predicted severe illness. The authors say such early tests could help clinics judge risk before symptoms force the issue.
