Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Measurement of matrix metalloproteinase-7 "MMP-7" serum level (pg/ml) as a biomarker of macrophage activation
ELISA "Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay" technique.
MMP-7 is measured after admission of patients to isolation hospital along 7 days interval for 21 days, 3 plasma samples are collected on the 7th day of admission, day 14 and day 21
Measurement of matrix metalloproteinase-9 "MMP-9" serum level (pg/L) as a biomarker of macrophage activation
ELISA "Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay" technique.
MMP-9 is measured after admission of patients to isolation hospital along 7 days interval for 21 days, 3 plasma samples are collected on the 7th day of admission, day 14 and day 21
Measurement of transforming growth factor B "TGF-B" serum level ( pg/ml) as a biomarker of macrophage activation
ELISA "Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay" technique.
TGF-B is measured after admission of patients to isolation hospital along 7 days interval for 21 days, 3 plasma samples are collected on the 7th day of admission, day 14 and day 21
Measurement of platelet derived growth factor "PDGF" serum level (ng/ml) as a biomarker of macrophage activation
ELISA "Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay" technique.
PDGF is measured after admission of patients to isolation hospital along 7 days interval for 21 days, 3 plasma samples are collected on the 7th day of admission, day 14 and day 21
