Description
Summary:The aim of this controlled study was to identify polymorphisms in the genome of COVID­19 patients associated with the frequency of hospitalization.Materials and methods: Two groups of patients were formed: the main group – 56 patients with COVID­19, hospitalized at least twice during the study period, and the control group – 107 patients for whom only one hospitalization with COVID­19 was confirmed during the study period. Wholeexome sequencing of residual nasopharyngeal swabs from patients hospitalized with COVID­19 was performed on the MGI platform, followed by bioinformatics analysis and gene enrichment analysis.Result: For the first time, exome sequencing was performed from oropharyngeal swabs from 163 patients hospitalized with COVID­19 using the MGI platform. In the main group, unique variants of genetic polymorphisms were identified, including six previously undescribed ones.Conclusion: No genetic variants were statistically significantly associated with single or multiple hospitalizations of COVID­19 patients in the study. Nasopharyngeal swabs can be used for whole exome sequencing. Further studies are needed to identify unique genetic variants responsible for susceptibility to infectious diseases.
