Background: This Retrospective Study was conducted by collecting patient records from the COVID-19 registry of Parul Sevasharm Hospital. The goal of this study was to investigate the risk and mortality of COVID-19 patients with Metabolic Syndrome especially during the second wave of pandemic. Methods: This Retrospective Study was conducted by collecting patient records from the COVID-19 registry of Parul Sevasharm Hospital. The record of COVID-19 patients admitted during the second wave of pandemic (April – June, 2021) were included and analyzed for Metabolic syndrome, Demographic characteristics and Clinical Outcomes. Comorbidities were classified into the following Groups: DM (having DM with or without comorbidities), only DM (having DM without other comorbidities); HT (having HT with or without other comorbidities), only HT (having HT without other comorbidities); CVD (having CVD with or without comorbidities), only CVD (having CVD without other comorbidities). Correlation analysis was also done for sub-groups of DM+CVD, CVD+HT, HT+DM, (with or without other comorbidities). Results: Among 994 Patients with COVID-19, 748/994 (75.25%) were discharged as cured and 246 (24.74%) succumbed to death. The mean age of the study population was 52.64±14.72, in which 366 (36.82%) were Females and 628/994 (63.57%) were Males.

Background: Clinical outcome of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 and acute kidney injury (AKI) are not well understood. The clinical significance of abnormal electrolytes and renal outcome in COVID-19 patients have been poorly documented. We aim to exhibit the electrolyte abnormalities, renal outcome and associated risk factors in hospitalized COVID-19 patients in rural tertiary care hospital in Vadodara district, Western India. Method: A hospital record based retrospective study was conducted. Total 994 patients hospitalized with COVID-19 between 1st April 2021 to 30th June 2021 and those meeting inclusion criteria were included for the analysis. The laboratory data of interest included electrolytes reports like Na+, K+, CL-, creatinine and blood urea. Result: Of the total hospitalized COVID-19 patients, 324 patients were eligible. For the criteria for suspected AKI - 279 (86.11%) and no AKI - 45 (13.88%) patients were found. Suspected AKI patients were classified into four conditions: 1) HYPERNATREMIA (14.33%); HYPERKALEMIA (2.15%); BCR ratio >20 (65.59%); HIGH Cl- (17.92%). Out of total AKI patients, (36.91%) died whereas (13.3%) patients died in no AKI group. All patients were provided antibiotics, steroids and anti-viral therapies irrespective of AKI status, which we presume might have contributed in high mortality among suspected AKI.

Background: We used standard laboratory test to determine tissue injury and inflammatory state on the physiological condition of fever, cough, headache in 672 patients tested for CRP and 407 patients tested for LDH out of a total of 994 COVID-19 admissions during the period of April 2021-September 2021 at Parul Sevashram Hospital, Vadodara. The data was stratified based on the survivor/non-survivor status and severity of disease condition based on Ward or ICU admissions. The results were correlated with the vales of serum CRP and LDH levels for determining their prognostic significance. Patients and Methods: This is a retrospective, single-centre, observational study using the data collected from MRD division through electronic records and standardized data collection template. It included patients who were tested for CRP and LDH at times of admission. Mean, Standard deviation, Median and Interquartile range (IQR) were used to present continuous variables. Student’s t-test was used for testing differences between the two groups applicable. For study of single variables, Z-score was performed. The SPSS version 16 software was used for performing linear regression in this study and statistical analysis was done.
