While its cause is still unknown, it has been increasingly reported in the setting of lung cancer and syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone-related hyponatremia. In this case report, we present what we believe to be the first case of sweet taste dysgeusia in a non-cancer context. We will briefly review and summarize all published cases describing this symptom and also reflect upon the nature of this condition focusing on the role of serum sodium levels in sweet taste receptor modulation.Introduction Cytokine storm is central in the pathobiology of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The pro-inflammatory state and hypoxia disrupt erythropoiesis leading to alterations in red cell distribution width (RDW) and hematocrit. Platelet production increases alongside its destruction, inviting newly formed immature platelets into the circulation. Thus, the platelet distribution width (PDW) and mean platelet volume (MPV) are also affected. The study's objective is to analyze these indices and C-reactive protein (CRP) to elucidate prognostic insights in COVID-19 patients at the time of admission. Methodology This study was a retrospective cross-sectional study conducted at Chigateri General Hospital, attached to JJM Medical College, Davangere, over two months, July and August of 2020. Patients falling under categories B and C according to the interim guidelines issued by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India were enrolled in this study. Patients requiring mechanical ventilation e understood about the natural history of COVID-19, our study aims to propose relatively inexpensive indices of mortality that can aid efficient management.In this report, we present a case of influenza B-associated spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) and subcutaneous emphysema (SE) in a young
