“…In our study, these data are reinforced by the fact that the estimated glomerular filtration rate is also among the most relevant parameters, as it has been shown in other studies to be a good predictor of admission mortality in COVID-19. In addition, our study showed a high relevance of FiO2, closely related to acute hypoxic respiratory failure-, and potassium and pH as predictors of a poor outcome and mortality, which is compatible with the results obtained by Satici et al [48], Noori et al [49], or Liu et al [50]. Interestingly, hypokalemia has also been shown to be an indicator of a poorer prognosis and longer days of negative nucleic acid conversion.…”

“…For instance, no information about viral load and treatment options, which are known determinants of the duration of hospital stay and disease severity, was available for analysis [54]. Second, although previous studies reported a superior accuracy of mortality prediction in patients with COVID pneumonia by using a combination of different prediction indices compared to the use of a single indicator [31,55], our meta-analysis could not address this issue. In addition, we also did not compare the efficacy of PNI in mortality prediction with that of other predictive tools.…”

“…The results, we obtained, turned out to be interesting, regarding a higher SpO 2 /FiO 2 indicator in carriers of the 4aa genotype. After all, a high SpO 2 /FiO 2 ratio indicates the lower risk of acute respiratory distress syndrome and mortality in patients with COVID-19 [ 18 , 19 ]. It can be assumed, based indirectly on the data of Vaporidi et al and Liu et al [ 20 , 21 ], that the presence of eNOS deficiency (it should be reminded, that 4aa genotype is associated with a decrease in eNOS activity) in patients with lung damage can be a “good” factor.…”
