Profile of proinflammatory markers in pregnant women who died of severe COVID-19 by Pablo B. Bautista-García, Mariana Bahena-Campos, Diana H. Alcántara-Rosas

“…Results: It was observed that pregnant women with critical COVID-19 showed increased values of C-reactive protein, leukocytes, D-dimer, and DHL compared to surviving pregnant patients with critical COVID-19; however, no statistical significance was observed for platelet number and fibrinogen. Conclusion: In the case of pregnant women who died from critical COVID-19, there was a significant increase in inflammatory markers, in contrast to what was observed in other studies, no changes in the number of platelets or fibrinogen were observed. …”
