However, after adjusting for confounders, they found a borderline significance between worse survival and PLR ( p = 0.058). 37 Since the SARS-CoV-2 viral load has been highly correlated with lymphocyte count and CRP value, LCR can help to predict disease severity. 41 In the current study LCR showed a reasonable ability to predict disease mortality.

In subgroup analysis, mortality rate was higher in patients with the non-dialysis CKD compared to the patients on HD but these results did not reach statistical significance (40% vs 31.6%, p = 0.542) ( Table 1 ).
