Project: “Early recognition of cardiac injury associated with COVID-19 and clinical outcomes”.Background: We aimed to explore immune parameters in COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) to identify distinctive features in patients with cardiac injury. Methods: A total of 30 COVID-19 patients >18 years admitted to the ICU were studied on days D1, D3 and D7 after admission. Cardiac function was assessed using speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE). Peripheral blood immunophenotyping, cardiac (pro-BNP; troponin) and inflammatory biomarkers were simultaneously evaluated. Results: Cardiac dysfunction (DYS) was detected by STE in 73% of patients: 40% left ventricle (LV) systolic dysfunction, 60% LV diastolic dysfunction, 37% right ventricle systolic dysfunction. High-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) was detectable in 43.3% of the patients with a median value of 13.00 ng/L. There were no significant differences between DYS and nDYS patients regarding mortality, organ dysfunction, cardiac (including hs-cTn) or inflammatory biomarkers. Patients with DYS showed persistently lower lymphocyte counts (median 896 [661–1837] cells/µL vs. 2141 [924–3306] cells/µL, p = 0.058), activated CD3 (median 85 [66–170] cells/µL vs. 186 [142–259] cells/µL, p = 0.047) and CD4 T cells (median 33 [28–40] cells/µL vs. 63 [48–79] cells/µL, p = 0.005), and higher effector memory T cells (TEM) at baseline (CD4%: 10.9 [6.4–19.2] vs. 5.9 [4.2–12.8], p = 0.025; CD8%: 15.7 [7.9–22.8] vs. 8.1 [7.7–13.7], p = 0.035; CD8 counts: 40 cells/µL [17–61] vs. 10 cells/µL [7–17], p = 0.011) than patients without cardiac dysfunction. Conclusion: Our study suggests an association between the immunological trait and cardiac dysfunction in severe COVID-19 patients.NOVA Medical School|Faculdade de Ciências Médicas (NMS|FCM)Centro de Estudos de Doenças Crónicas (CEDOC)RUNGonzalez, Filipe AndréÂngelo-Dias, MiguelMartins, CatarinaGomes, RuiBacariza, JacoboFernandes, AnteroBorrego, Luís Miguel2022-04-08T22:36:07Z2022-03-282022-03-28T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/136121eng2077-0383PURE: 43040553https://doi.org/10.3390/jcm11071880info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-22T18:01:02Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/136121Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T17:32:03.356332Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
