Retrospective study observes links between serum ionic calcium and severity in moderate to severe COVID-19 patients, highlighting the role of electrolyte balance in clinical outcomes.
Calcium is an essential electrolyte with critical physiological functions. Recently, it has been implicated in the pathogenesis and outcomes of COVID-19. This retrospective study was conducted to estimate serum ionic calcium and its correlation with clinical severity, inflammatory markers, and in-hospital outcomes in moderate to severe COVID-19 patients.
