In the study by Wang et al., 36 out of 138 (26.1%) COVID-19 patients were admitted to the ICU with severe symptoms, all of whom had significantly elevated serum cTnI and CK-MB levels (p = 0.004 and p < 0.001, respectively) compared to non-ICU patients [11] . cTnI provides remarkable prognostic value for patients at increased risk of worsening outcomes and in-hospital mortality, though studies have also shown the association of raised CK-MB and BNP levels with more severe symptoms of COVID-19. ./cache/cord-309571-a0xu1d56.txt ./txt/cord-309571-a0xu1d56.txt
