ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: Aim: To characterize the features of the interrelation of systemic inflammation with the quality of life of patients with coronary virus disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and Methods: 30 patients were examined 1 month after inpatient treatment for COVID-19. Quality of life (QoL) of patients was determined according to the questionnaire Medical Outcomes Study - 36-item Short Form (SF-36). The glucose level, circulating immune complexes (CICs), concentration of immunoglobulin (Ig) A, interleukin (IL)-8 and IL-33 levels were determined in the blood serum of patients. RESULTS: Results: QoL of patients after coronavirus disease is significantly deteriorated: patients note a significant limitation in physical functioning, pain perception, vitality, role-physical and social functioning and mental health. The increase in glycemia and glycated hemoglobin levels in post-COVID-19 patients was significantly associated with the deterioration of patients` general health (GH) (r = -0,228; (p=0,040) and (r = -0,280; (p=0,014), respectively). The IL-33 concentration in such patients correlated directly with role-physical functioning (RP) (r = 0,385; p=0,029). The CICs level decline was associated with deterioration of RP (r = 0,227; p=0,042) and GH (r = 0,227; p=0,041). CONCLUSION: Conclusions: The study of clinical-functional, biochemical, immunological and psychological indicators, quality of life, and their mutual influences should be included in the development of the program for the diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of patients after the transfer of COVID-19 at the outpatient stage of treatment by doctors of general practice-family medicine.
