Abstract
We investigated the role of the cumulative effect of rare high-impact (HI) genetic variants in Notch pathway gene sets on the development of anemia in two cohorts of patients at high risk for chronic or acute critical illness: patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) admitted for rehabilitation and patients with acute COVID-19. In both patient cohorts, an association was found between the risk of severe/moderate anemia and the cumulative effect of HI variants in Notch pathway genes. In patients with COVID-19, HI variants in Notch pathway genes affected RBC, HGB, and HCT levels.
