Of the regulated protein panel, thirty-four proteins have been also reported in five or more studies, twenty-four in two to five, and four were reported only in one study from other authors [10,11,12,13,14,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46]; specifically, CD14, CRP, ITIH1, ITIH3, LBP, LRG1, SERPINA3, VWF, C9, ApoA1 and GSN have been associated with COVID-19 severity in at least eight independent studies (Supplementary Table S3). The gene discussed is CD14; the disease is COVID-19.
