The aim of the study was a complex estimation of the course of COVID-19-associated pneumonia in patients vaccinated against COVID-19.
Material and methods. 220 patients with COVID-19-associated pneumonia were examined. The main group (I) consisted of patients vaccinated against COVID-19 (n=110, including 57 male persons, mean age 64,6±12,0 years), the comparison group (II) consisted of not vaccinated against COVID-19 patients (n=110, including 56 male persons, mean age 64,8±12,8 years). Estimation of clinical, laboratory and instrumental data of patients in both groups was carried out twice: on the 10±3rd day (groups I10, II10) and on the 17±3rd day from the onset of symptoms (groups I17, II17).
Results. On the 10±3rd day from the onset of symptoms, vaccinated patients were characterized by a milder clinical status, as was proved by significant differences in the scores of the SHOX-COVID scale (4 [4; 6] in group I10 vs 5 [4; 7] in II10, p=0,042) and SpO2 (95±3% in I10 vs 94±3% in II10, p=0.037). When assessing laboratory data in the group of vaccinated patients, the level of lymphocytes was higher (1,2±0,8 × 109/l versus 0,9±0,4 × 109/l, p=0,004), the level of LDH was lower (284,5±103,9 U/L vs 321,6±121,1 U/L, p=0,016) and AST (30,9 [24,2–41,1] U/L vs 38,2 [29,2–50,9] U/L, p=0,002). When comparing the volume of pulmonary parenchyma damage, there were no significant differences between the groups: 1 [1; 2] in I10 vs 2 [1; 2] in II10, p=0,317. On the 17±3rd day from the onset of symptoms, there was a difference between the groups in SpO2 level: 97 [96; 98] % vs 96 [95; 98] %, p=0,003. When comparing the dynamics of laboratory parameters, in group I, a higher level of lymphocytes remained (1,3 [0,8; 1,9] × 109/l in I17 vs 1,0 [0,7; 1,5] × 109/l in II17, p=0,009). The stage of pneumonia according to MSCT of thoracic region was significantly lower in group I, in contrast to group II: 1 [1; 2] versus 2 [1; 2], p=0,024,
Conclusion. In fully vaccinated against COVID-19 patients, the course of COVID-19-associated pneumonia was characterized by less severe clinical manifestations, the absence of lymphopenia and, in dynamics, a smaller amount of pulmonary parenchyma damage.
