Abstract
The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a global health emergency. Early detection and intervention are key factors for improving outcomes in patients with COVID-19. Real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction-based molecular assays and antibody for detecting SARS-CoV-2 in respiratory specimens are the current reference standard for COVID-19 diagnosis. Clinical implications of different specimen types for nucleic acid and antibody testing of COVID-19 in Zhongnan hospital of Wuhan University were analyzed. Compared with health groups, tumor patients had higher rate of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) (+/-) immunoglobulin M (IgM) (+) immunoglobulin G (IgG) (+). The rate of SARS-CoV-2 (-) IgM (+) IgG (-) or SARS-CoV-2 (-) IgM (-) IgG (+) in female was significantly higher than that in male. These results can help governments to take screening measures to prevent the COVID-19 pandemic again.
Keywords: COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2; cancer; female.
