An emerging feature of COVID-19 is a clinically relevant osteo-metabolic phenotype characterized by acute hypocalcaemia and chronic hypovitaminosis D, with a high prevalence of vertebral fractures. This phenotype might have negative effects on disease severity and could potentially be targeted for prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection and poor COVID-19 outcomes.
An emerging feature of COVID-19 is a clinically relevant osteo-metabolic phenotype characterized by widespread acute hypocalcaemia and chronic hypovitaminosis D with high prevalence of vertebral fractures. This phenotype might have negative effects on disease severity and its components could represent possible targets for prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection and poor COVID-19 outcomes.
