Inflammatory biomarkers in pregnant women with COVID-19: a retrospective cohort study

Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a pandemic viral disease affecting also obstetric patients and uncertainties exist about the prognostic role of inflammatory biomarkers and hemocytometry values in patients with this infection. To clarify that, we have assessed the values of several in...
