Altered Lipid Profile in COVID-19 Patients and Metabolic Reprogramming.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a global pandemic. Previous studies have reported dyslipidemia in patients with COVID-19. Herein, we conducted a retrospective study and a bioinformatics analysis to evaluate the essential data of the lipid profile as well as the possible mechanism in patients with COVID-19.

Methods

First of all, the retrospective study included three cohorts: patients with COVID-19, a healthy population, and patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). For each subject, serum lipid profiles in the biochemical data were compared, including triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). Furthermore, bioinformatics analyses were performed
