This study aims to better understand this new infection and report the changes in the various laboratory tests identified in critically ill patients and associated with poor prognosis among COVID-19 patients admitted to the ICU. This was a retrospective study that included 160 confirmed SARS-CoV-2-positive patients. Elevated serum ferritin, D-dimer, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and nonconjugated bilirubin levels were present in 139 (96%), 131 (96%), 107 (68%), 52 (34%), and 89 (70%) patients, respectively. Renal parameters were abnormal in a significant number of cases with elevated creatinine and blood urea nitrogen in 93 (62%) and 102 (68%) cases, respectively. Hematological profiles revealed lower red blood cell count, hemoglobin, eosinophils, basophils, monocytes, and lymphocytesion from the early stages will help in reducing mortality and unfavorable outcomes. In patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC), a negative impact of associated malnutrition on both morbidity and mortality was reported. We aimed to elucidate the efficacy of serum liver fibrosis markers (fibronectin (FN), hydroxyproline (Hyp), and hyaluronic acid (HA)) and their respective indices (HA index, Hyp index, and FN index) and vitamin D status in predicting malnutrition associated with liver fibrosis in CHC patients and to investigate their association with the value of current clinical malnutrition assessment tools subjective global assessment (SGA), handgrip strength (HGS), and muscle mass scores (SGA, BMI, MAMC, and HGS). A cross-sectional study was conducted on 80 patients aged 40-60 years with proven viremia, HCV antibodies, HCV-RNA positivity, genotype determinations, and established chronic hepatitis C virus for more th
