Brief Summary:
COVID infection has resulted in multi-organ injury and may result in cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurological, and muscular damage. It is associated with significant asthenia and the long-term effects of the infection are still unclear, particularly for the development of pain and delayed functional rehabilitation.
Glycomics "is the systematic study of the structure of glycans in a given cell type or organism. Glycans are complex oligosaccharides attached to proteins and lipids that regulate a variety of organic processes, including immunity Thus, glycans may influence different moments of the response to the virus and involved in the clinical severity of the disease, but may also change depending on the severity of symptoms and the organic response to SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Glycomic data could provide important insights into interindividual differences at the molecular level that directly interact with SARS-CoV-2 and the development of mid- and long-term side effects. The ability to identify early those susceptible to developing COVID-19 infection and at higher risk for COVID-19 with unfavorable outcomes long after infection would help guide therapeutic strategy and provide important guidance for rational health care organization, which is of outmost importance.
Long-term outcome data regarding post-COVID patient functional capacity and glycomics will be compared to assess whether there may be differences in protein glycosylation that may predict patient outcome.
