    Snippet: In this study, the leukocyte and neutrophil count of patients with heart failure was significantly higher than that of covid-19 patients, which may be attributed to the inflammatory state in vivo induced by heart failure or acute myocardial infarction (11, 12) . In addition, other inflammatory indexes such as erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein in both groups also increased compared with the normal range. The results are consist.....
    Document: In this study, the leukocyte and neutrophil count of patients with heart failure was significantly higher than that of covid-19 patients, which may be attributed to the inflammatory state in vivo induced by heart failure or acute myocardial infarction (11, 12) . In addition, other inflammatory indexes such as erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein in both groups also increased compared with the normal range. The results are consistent with previous studies (13, 14) . Interestingly, the lymphocyte count was also decreased in heart failure, which may because, on one hand, the increase of neutrophil ratio in patients with heart failure may cause the relative decrease of lymphocyte ratio. On the other hand, it may be related to the increase of cortical hormone level after stress response.
