Snippet: INTRODUCTION: Management of vulnerable patients during the COVIDâ€19 pandemic requires careful precautions. Hemodialysis patients constitute a large group of atâ€risk patients that not only suffer from a compromised immune system but also are at a higher risk due to frequent admission to healthcare units.

Document: INTRODUCTION: Management of vulnerable patients during the COVIDâ€19 pandemic requires careful precautions. Hemodialysis patients constitute a large group of atâ€risk patients that not only suffer from a compromised immune system but also are at a higher risk due to frequent admission to healthcare units. Therefore, a better understanding on the pathogenesis and possible risk factors of COVIDâ€19 in hemodialysis patients is of high importance. METHODS: A total of 670 maintained hemodialysis patients from all dialysis units of the East Azerbaijan Province of Iran, including 44 COVIDâ€19 patients were included in the present study. Possible associations between the backgrounds of patients and the incidence of COVIDâ€19 were assessed. Also, hemodialysis patients with COVIDâ€19 were compared to 211 nonhemodialysis COVIDâ€19 patients. FINDINGS: Chronic glomerulonephritis patients and those with blood group A demonstrated a higher incidence of COVIDâ€19. On the other hand, patients with blood group AB(+) and those with hypertension etiology of kidney failure demonstrated a lower incidence of COVIDâ€19. Hemodialysis patients with COVIDâ€19 had higher counts of polymorphonuclears (PMNs) in their peripheral blood compared to other COVIDâ€19 patients. DISCUSSION: A better comprehension on the risk factors associated with COVIDâ€19 in hemodialysis patients can improve our understanding on the pathogenesis of COVIDâ€19 in different situations and help the enhancement of current therapeutics for COVIDâ€19 in hemodialysis patients.
