Abstract

Conclusions. An unfavourable progression of SARS-CoV-2 infection can be expected in middle-aged, obese patients, and in those with elevated levels of inflammatory markers and LDH. Abnormally increased NLR and PLR values may also serve as potential indicators of disease severity; however, further evaluation in a larger patient sample is required to determine the predictive role of these rations in SARS-CoV-2 infection.
