Beta‐2‐Glycoprotein‐I Deficiency Could Precipitate an Antiphospholipid Syndrome‐like Prothrombotic Situation in Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019
Abstract
Patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) present coagulation abnormalities and thromboembolic events that resemble antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). This work has aimed to study the prevalence of APS‐related antigens, antibodies, and immune complexes in patients with COVID‐19 and their association with clinical events.
