“…5,6 It is currently difficult to determine which subset of patients will develop life-threatening disease and, therefore, most benefit from receiving treatment when resources are limited. 7 Early identification of these patients would allow optimal allocation of care. To that end, the objective of the current study was to identify metabolites in patient plasma that accurately predict life-threatening cases of COVID-19 before the onset of severe symptoms.…”

“…Thus, predictions for COVID hospital occupancy should be used as an important input in hospital management not only to avoid the health system collapse but to recover the resource situation pre-COVID-19 [ 9 ]. While a large number of freely available tools have been designed for patient-level predictions [ [10] , [11] , [12] , [13] ], only a few predict hospital occupancy [ 9 , 14 ]. Therefore, tools focused on cohort-level predictions are needed for COVID-19 management.…”

“…Nearly 80% of patients affected by COVID-19 have only mild symptoms, recovering with conventional medical treatment or even without any treatment [ 7 , 8 ]. Around 20% of affected patients, however, develop respiratory distress, requiring oxygen therapy or even mechanical ventilation, and nearly 10% of them must be admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) [ 9 ]. Moreover, the mortality of late-stage ARDS precipitated by COVID-19 is remarkably high.…”
