Netea,Nikoletta Rovina,Karolina Akinosoglou,Anastasia Antoniadou,Nikolaos Antonakos,Georgia Damoraki,Theologia Gkavogianni,Maria Evangelia Adami,Paraskevi Katsaounou,Maria Ntaganou,Magdalini Kyriakopoulou,George Dimopoulos,Ioannis Koutsodimitropoulos,Dimitrios Velissaris,Panagiotis Koufargyris,Athanassios Karageorgos,Konstantina Katrini,Vasileios Lekakis,Mihaela Lupse,Antigone Kotsaki,George Renieris,Danai Theodoulou,Vassiliki Panou,Evangelia Koukaki,Nikolaos Koulouris,Charalambos Gogos,Antonia Koutsoukou +28 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that severe respiratory failure (SRF) in COVID-19 patients is driven by a unique pattern of immune dysfunction, characterized by IL-6-mediated low HLA-DR expression and lymphopenia, associated with sustained cytokine production and hyper-inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute life-threatening cardiac tamponade in a mechanically ventilated patient with COVID-19 pneumonia
Vaia Derveni,Evangelos Kaniaris,Dimitris Toumpanakis,Efstathia Potamianou,Ilianna Ioannidou,Danai Theodoulou,Anna Kyriakoudi,Magda Kyriakopoulou,Konstantinos Pontikis,Maria Daganou +9 more
TL;DR: Cardiac tamponade may complicate CO VID-19 and should be included in the differential diagnosis of acute hemodynamic deterioration in mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immunostimulation and Coagulopathy in COVID-19 Compared to Patients With H1N1 Pneumonia or Bacterial Sepsis
Dimitrios-Dorotheos Papadakis,Marianna Politou,Maria Kompoti,Dimitrios Vagionas,Eirini Kostakou,Danai Theodoulou,Evangelos Kaniaris,Nikoletta Rovina,George Panayiotakopoulos,Stavros Dimopoulos,Antonia Koutsoukou,Ioannis Vasileiadis +11 more
TL;DR: Increased immunostimulation was noted in COVID-19 patients compared to other septic patients; however, this was not accompanied by greater disturbance of the clotting system and/or more severe endothelial injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unfractionated heparin reduces hepcidin levels in critically ill patients.
Dimitrios Vagionas,Marianna Politou,Maria Kompoti,Dimitrios-Dorotheos Papadakis,Eirini Kostakou,Danai Theodoulou,Evangelos Kaniaris,Nikoletta Rovina,Antonia Koutsoukou,Ioannis Vasileiadis +9 more
TL;DR: A strong anti-hepcidin activity has been observed in heparins as discussed by the authors, which may lead to future treatment methods of forms of anaemia characterized by hepcidIN excess, common among the critically ill.
