          Abstract

          Resumen En diciembre de 2019 se identificó en China una nueva subespecie de coronavirus al que denominaron SARS-CoV-2, responsable de la enfermedad posterior a la que la OMS llamó COVID-19. La enfermedad se ha propagado rápidamente provocando una pandemia mundial. Todavía se desconoce mucho del SARS-CoV-2, pero las primeras investigaciones respaldan la hipótesis de que la gravedad de la COVID-19 viene condicionada por la respuesta hiperinflamatoria que se produce en nuestro organismo al contacto con el SARS-CoV-2. La gravedad del cuadro se relaciona con la insuficiencia respiratoria que provoca, no obstante, existen estudios que no limitan la afectación pulmonar. Investigaciones apuntan a que el mecanismo de acceso del SARS-CoV-2 al organismo está muy relacionado con la enzima ACE2. Enzima que entre otros tejidos, se puede encontrar en el epitelio de las células tubulares renales. Esta es la causa por la que existen datos de pacientes con COVID-19 que tienen una gran afectación en la función renal y pueden cursar con IRA (factor de mal pronóstico). Por este motivo, unido a que las comorbilidades asociadas con una mayor mortalidad durante la infección COVID-19 son comunes en los pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica, creemos necesario conocer los resultados que aportan los diferentes estudios realizados sobre esa materia.

          Abstract In December 2019, a new subspecies of coronavirus was identified in China, which was named SARS-CoV-2, responsible for the disease that WHO called COVID-19. The disease has spread rapidly causing a global pandemic. Much is still unknown about SARS-CoV-2, but the first findings support the hypothesis that the severity of COVID-19 is conditioned by the hyperinflammatory response, which occurs in our body after contacting SARS-CoV-2. The severity of the symptoms is conditioned by the respiratory failure caused, however there are studies that are not limited to lung involvement. Evidence suggests that the access mechanism of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is closely related to the ACE2 enzyme. An enzyme that, among other tissues, can be found in the epithelium of renal tubular cells. For this reason, there are data on patients with COVID-19 who are severely affected in kidney function and may have acute kidney failure (a poor prognostic factor). For this reason, together with the fact that the comorbidities associated with a higher mortality during COVID-19 infection are common in patients with chronic kidney disease, it is necessary to know the available evidence on this matter.

          Clinical features of patients infected with 2019 novel coronavirus in Wuhan, China

          Summary Background A recent cluster of pneumonia cases in Wuhan, China, was caused by a novel betacoronavirus, the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV). We report the epidemiological, clinical, laboratory, and radiological characteristics and treatment and clinical outcomes of these patients. Methods All patients with suspected 2019-nCoV were admitted to a designated hospital in Wuhan. We prospectively collected and analysed data on patients with laboratory-confirmed 2019-nCoV infection by real-time RT-PCR and next-generation sequencing. Data were obtained with standardised data collection forms shared by WHO and the International Severe Acute Respiratory and Emerging Infection Consortium from electronic medical records. Researchers also directly communicated with patients or their families to ascertain epidemiological and symptom data. Outcomes were also compared between patients who had been admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and those who had not. Findings By Jan 2, 2020, 41 admitted hospital patients had been identified as having laboratory-confirmed 2019-nCoV infection. Most of the infected patients were men (30 [73%] of 41); less than half had underlying diseases (13 [32%]), including diabetes (eight [20%]), hypertension (six [15%]), and cardiovascular disease (six [15%]). Median age was 49·0 years (IQR 41·0–58·0). 27 (66%) of 41 patients had been exposed to Huanan seafood market. One family cluster was found. Common symptoms at onset of illness were fever (40 [98%] of 41 patients), cough (31 [76%]), and myalgia or fatigue (18 [44%]); less common symptoms were sputum production (11 [28%] of 39), headache (three [8%] of 38), haemoptysis (two [5%] of 39), and diarrhoea (one [3%] of 38). Dyspnoea developed in 22 (55%) of 40 patients (median time from illness onset to dyspnoea 8·0 days [IQR 5·0–13·0]). 26 (63%) of 41 patients had lymphopenia. All 41 patients had pneumonia with abnormal findings on chest CT. Complications included acute respiratory distress syndrome (12 [29%]), RNAaemia (six [15%]), acute cardiac injury (five [12%]) and secondary infection (four [10%]). 13 (32%) patients were admitted to an ICU and six (15%) died. Compared with non-ICU patients, ICU patients had higher plasma levels of IL2, IL7, IL10, GSCF, IP10, MCP1, MIP1A, and TNFα. Interpretation The 2019-nCoV infection caused clusters of severe respiratory illness similar to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus and was associated with ICU admission and high mortality. Major gaps in our knowledge of the origin, epidemiology, duration of human transmission, and clinical spectrum of disease need fulfilment by future studies.

            A Novel Coronavirus from Patients with Pneumonia in China, 2019

            Summary In December 2019, a cluster of patients with pneumonia of unknown cause was linked to a seafood wholesale market in Wuhan, China. A previously unknown betacoronavirus was discovered through the use of unbiased sequencing in samples from patients with pneumonia. Human airway epithelial cells were used to isolate a novel coronavirus, named 2019-nCoV, which formed a clade within the subgenus sarbecovirus, Orthocoronavirinae subfamily. Different from both MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV, 2019-nCoV is the seventh member of the family of coronaviruses that infect humans. Enhanced surveillance and further investigation are ongoing.

              Clinical Characteristics of 138 Hospitalized Patients With 2019 Novel Coronavirus–Infected Pneumonia in Wuhan, China

              In December 2019, novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV)-infected pneumonia (NCIP) occurred in Wuhan, China. The number of cases has increased rapidly but information on the clinical characteristics of affected patients is limited.
