Evidence associating neutrophilia, lung damage, hyperlactatemia, blood acidosis, impaired oxygen transport, and mortality in critically ill COVID-19 patients
2023-09-18
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> COVID-19 severity and high in-hospital mortality are often associated with severe hypoxemia, hyperlactatemia, and acidosis. Since neutrophil numbers in severe COVID-19 can exceed 80% of the total circulating leukocytes and that they are massively recruited to infected lungs, we investigated whether metabolic acidosis mediated by the glycolytic neutrophils is associated with lung damage and imp...
