Lipid profile and plasma ApoA-I concentration in COVID patients and control subjects.

Lipid profile	Admission (D1)	Day 3	Day 7	Controls	p values (D1 vs Controls)
TC, mmol/L, median [IQR]	2.65 [2.46–3.88]	2.68 [2.30–3.24]	4.09 [3.21–4.89]	5.25 [4.83–5.73]	0.0016
TG, mmol/L, median [IQR]	2.53 [1.73–2.99]	2.73 [2.0–3.18]	2.11 [2.02–3.60]	1.20 [0.90–1.83]	0.0152
HDL-C, mmol/L, median [IQR]	0.77 [0.49–0.83]	0.58 [0.44–0.86]	0.84 [0.64–0.91]	1.46 [1.34–1.69]	< 0.0001
LDL-C, mmol/L, median [IQR]	1.43 [1.28–2.20]	1.55 [1.13–2.0]	0.96 [0.90–2.19]	3.20 [2.15–3.65]	0.0081
Apo-AI, mg/dL, median [IQR]	48.3 [18.8–53.2]	45.1 [18.6–56.9]	56.9 [48.2–61.6]	92.8 [84.9–103.9]	< 0.0001

Mann–Whitney test was performed to compare the lipid profiles of controls (n = 16) versus COVID-19 at admission (n = 8) patients.

TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride; HDL-C, High-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C, Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
