Context: The type 2 deiodinase and its Thr92Ala-DIO2 polymorphism have been linked to clinical outcomes in acute lung injury and pulmonary fibrosis. Objective: Our objectives were to evaluate were cumulative mortality during admission according to Thr92Ala-DIO2 polymorphism. Methods: Here we conducted an observational, longitudinal, and prospective cohort study to investigate a possible association between the Thr92Ala- DIO2 polymorphism and intrahospital mortality from COVID-19 in adult patients admitted between June and August 2020. Blood biochemistry, thyroid function tests, length of stay, comorbidities, complications, and severity scores were also studied according to Thr92Ala-DIO2 polymorphism. Results: In total, 220 consecutive patients (median age 62; 48-74 years) were stratified into 3 subgroups: Thr/Thr (n = 79), Thr/Ala (n = 119), and Ala/Ala (n = 23). While the overall mortality was 17.3%, the lethality was lower in Ala/Thr patients (12.6%) than in Thr/Thr patients (21.7%) or Ala/Ala patients (23%). The heterozygous genotype (Thr/Ala) was associated with a 47% reduced risk of intrahospital mortality whereas univariate and multivariate logistic regression adjusted for multiple covariates revealed a reduction that ranged from 51% to 66%. The association of the Thr/Ala genotype with better clinical outcomes was confirmed in a metanalysis of 5 studies, including the present one. Conclusion: Here we provide evidence for a protective role played by Thr92Ala-DIO2 heterozygosity in patients with COVID-19. This protective effect follows an inheritance model known as overdominance, in which the phenotype of the heterozygote lies outside the phenotypical range of both homozygous. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
