Genetic screening for <i>TLR7</i> variants in young and previously healthy men with severe COVID-19: a case series

2021-03-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Advanced age, male sex and chronic comorbidities are associated with severe COVID-19. However, these general risk factors cannot explain why critical illness occurs in young and apparently healthy individuals. In the past months, several publications have identified susceptibility loci and genes using comprehensive GWAS studies or genome, exome or candidate genes analysis. A recent study reported...
