Prognostic Values of Serum Ferritin and D-Dimer Trajectory in Patients with COVID-19
Viruses, 2021 Cytokine storm syndrome in patients with COVID-19 is mediated by pro-inflammatory cytokines resulting in acute lung injury and multiorgan failure. Elevation in serum ferritin and D-dimer is observed in COVID-19 patients. To determine prognostic values of

Critical Reviews in Clinical Laboratory Sciences, 2018 D-dimer is a soluble fibrin degradation product deriving from the plasmin-mediated degradation of cross-linked fibrin. D-dimer can hence be considered a biomarker of activation of coagulation and fibrinolysis, and it is routinely used for ruling out venous thromboembolism (VTE).

Pulmonary embolism in patients with COVID-19 and value of D-dimer assessment: a meta-analysis
European Radiology, 2021 To investigate, in a meta-analysis, the frequency of pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients with COVID-19 and whether D-dimer assessment may be useful to select patients for computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA).
