High levels of soluble RAGE are associated with a greater risk of mortality in COVID-19 patients treated with dexamethasone

Abstract Blood levels of the soluble receptor for advanced glycation end-products (sRAGE) are acutely elevated during the host inflammatory response to infection and predict mortality in COVID-19. However, the prognostic performance of this biomarker in the context of treatments to reduce inflammati...
