“…Hematological abnormalities, such as thrombocytopenia, reduced numbers of peripheral blood lymphocytes and eosinophils with an increased polymorphonuclear-to-lymphocyte ratio are common features of novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID- 19), especially in more severe cases [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. To date, no reports specifically addressed the investigation of anemia in COVID-19, with determination of its prevalence, pathogenesis and prognostic significance.…”

“…To date, no reports specifically addressed the investigation of anemia in COVID-19, with determination of its prevalence, pathogenesis and prognostic significance. The results from published case series are often conflicting, with some papers reporting similar hemoglobin (Hb) concentrations in patients who survived and those who died because of SARS-CoV-2 infection [1], or in intensive care unit (ICU) compared with non-ICU patients [5], whereas others reported lower Hb levels in patients with more severe disease [8]. Recent case reports described the association of COVID-19 with autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AHA), including one case of cold agglutinin disease AHA [9], but cases of AHA in COVID-19 are probably uncommon, and it is still unknown if AHA prevalence is higher in COVID-19 than in the general population [10,11].…”

“…This is the first study to characterize the COVID-19 patients with dynamic changes of coagulation and platelet functions that showed biological significance and variation in non-severe and severe groups. In severe patients, platelet levels were significantly lower than non-severe patients at admission, 1 week and 2 weeks after admission [5,6]. Severe patients also had higher white cell levels, but hemoglobin was not different between two groups at admission.…”

“…Although some drugs such as hydroxychloroquine are integrated in treatment guidelines or under investigation in interventional studies, the management of COVID-19 is mostly supportive. [2][3][4] Identifying biological abnormalities induced by COVID-19 may contribute to a better understanding of the pathophysiology of the disease and ultimately guide the development of targeted adjuvant therapies besides antivirals drugs. Furthermore, such information on the biological profile of COVID-19 can guide clinicians in the assessment and treatment of these patients.…”
