Abstract

   Assessment of clinical and laboratory parameters plays an important role in predicting the severity of COVID-19. At the same time, the genetic markers identification will allow for the earliest stratification of patients by severe infection risk groups. We have genotyped 118 patients with moderate and severe forms of novel coronavirus infection by rs73064425 of the LZTFL1 gene associated with the COVID-19 severity. Based on the data obtained, a replicative analysis of the polymorphic variant rs73064425 association with the developing severe COVID-19 risk in the Russian population was performed. The correlation of this marker with clinical and laboratory parameters was also analyzed. Statistically significant differences were found between groups of patients with varying degrees of severity in the T allele. CT genotype was statistically significantly associated with thrombocytopenia, decreased white blood cell count and decreased blood saturation.
