Mi-RNA and COVID-19

March 15, 2025 updated by: TINELLI GIOVANNI, Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS

Circulating Mi-RNA Associated With Disease Severity and Outcome in COVID-19 Patients

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the cause of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), induces a spectrum of clinical conditions ranging from asymptomatic infection to life threatening severe disease, characterized by respiratory failure, shock and multi-organ dysfunction requiring admission in the intensive care unit (ICU).

The aim of the present study is to analyze miRNAs associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection, disease severity and mortality.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients admitted at the Fondazione Policlinico Gemelli IRCCS hospital with Covid-19 were enrolled. Peripheral blood samples were collected at the time of hospital admission. Plasma were separated from whole blood by centrifugation for 15 min at 3.000 rpm at 4°C and stored at -80°C until processing

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 18 years
  • diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by molecular testing on nasopharyngeal swabs

Exclusion Criteria:

  • pregnant women

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Mild Respiratory Failure Covid-19
Patients with Covid-19 and mild respiratory failure defined as PaO2/FiO2 201-300 mm Hg
To identify biomarkers that could predict the risk of a worsened COVID-19 disease progression.
Severe Respiratory Failure Covid-19
Patients with Covid-19 and severe respiratory failure defined as PaO2/FiO2 ≤100 mm Hg.
To identify biomarkers that could predict the risk of a worsened COVID-19 disease progression.
