The search was performed using all combinations of terms related to the novel coronavirus and the disease (e.g., "SARS-CoV-2," "2019-nCoV," and "COVID-19") on the one hand, and terms concerning susceptibility to infection or disease severity (e.g., "polymorphisms," "allelic variation," "genetic predisposition," "genotype," "clinical outcome") as well as the names of individual genes in which relevant polymorphisms were found (e.g., "TLR7," "ACE2"), on the other. A recently published comparative genetic analysis of approximately 81,000 human genomes across different populations suggested possible associations of coding region variants of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 with COVID-19 susceptibility, severity, and clinical outcomes [49] . ./cache/cord-302163-0jav84zw.txt ./txt/cord-302163-0jav84zw.txt
