Editöre Mektup Covid-19 sebebiyle yatışı olan hastaların psikiyatrik belirtiler açısından 2 aylık takibi ve psikiyatrik belirtilerin nötrofil-lenfosit oranı (NLR), trombosit-lenfosit oranı (PLR) ve D-dimer ile ilişkisinin incelenmesi

Abstract

Turan ve ark. [1] tarafından yapılan çalışma, COVID-19 nedeniyle hastanede yatan hastalarda psikiyatrik semptomlar ile inflamatuar belirteçler arasındaki ilişkiyi 2 aylık bir takip süresi boyunca incelemektedir. Araştırma, COVID-19 sürecinde anksiyete, depresyon ve uyku kalitesi gibi psikiyatrik semptomların izlenmesinin önemini ve bu semptomların inflamatuar parametrelerle olan ilişkisini vurgulamaktadır. Çalışmada, psikiyatrik tanı öyküsü olan hastalarda trombosit (PLT) ve trombosit-lenfosit oranı (PLR) değerlerinin anlamlı derecede yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Ayrıca, hastanede kalış süresi NLR, PLR, Ferritin, D-Dimer ve CRP değerleri ile pozitif, lenfosit sayısı ile negatif korelasyon göstermiştir. Çalışma, COVID-19 hastalarında hastanede yatış sırasında ve sonrasında sürekli psikiyatrik bakımın önemini vurgulamaktadır. Ancak, çalışmanın küçük örneklem büyüklüğü, kontrol grubunun olmaması ve kısa takip süresi gibi sınırlılıkları bulunmaktadır. Bu bulguları doğrulamak için daha geniş örneklemli ve uzun takip süreli çalışmalar önerilmektedir.

Letter to Editör for The Psychiatric symptoms in covid-19 inpatients and 2-month follow-up: an exploration of the relationship with neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and D-dimer

Abstract

The study by Turan et al. [1] explores the relationship between psychiatric symptoms and inflammatory markers in COVID-19 inpatients over a 2-month follow-up period. The research highlights the importance of monitoring psychiatric symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and sleep quality during the COVID-19 process and their correlation with inflammatory parameters. The study found that patients with a history of psychiatric diagnosis had significantly higher platelet (PLT) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) values. Additionally, hospitalization duration was positively correlated with NLR, PLR, Ferritin, D-Dimer, and CRP values, while negatively correlated with lymphocyte count. The study underscores the need for continuous psychiatric care during and after hospitalization for COVID-19 patients. However, the study has limitations, including a small sample size, lack of a control group, and short follow-up duration. Further research with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up periods is recommended to validate these findings.
