Decreased prealbumin level is associated with increased risk of mortality in hospitalized elderly patients with COVID 19
Nutrition(2020)
摘要
•Low prealbumin concentration was associated with increased risk for worse outcomes (all-cause death, intensive care unit admission, and mechanical ventilation) in elderly patients (≥65 y of age) with COVID-19.•There was a negative linear trend correlation between serum prealbumin concentration and risk for worse outcomes in elderly patients with COVID-19 infection.•A low prealbumin concentration can be regarded as a signal identifying the at-risk elderly patient who would suffer worse outcomes and who requires careful assessment and monitoring.
