Cover Story: Anemia and disturbances of iron metabolism were investigated in a cohort of 645 consecutive COVID-19 patients hospitalized at the Innsbruck University Hospital. Pre-existing anemia was associated with increased risk for in-hospital death. Moreover, the decline in hemoglobin and transferrin levels during hospital stay was more pronounced in patients with signs of hyperinflammation upon admission, the latter being associated with a nearly two-fold higher risk for new onset anemia within one week. A more distinct decrease in hemoglobin levels was observed in subjects with severe disease, and new-onset anemia was associated with a higher risk for ICU admission. Hemoglobin, ferritin, and transferrin levels normalized in a median of 122 days after discharge from hospital.View this paper
