In COVID‐19 pathophysiology, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), C‐reactive protein (CRP), ferritin, and D‐dimer levels are commonly observed to be deregulated (Henry et al., 2020; Rostami & Mansouritorghabeh, 2020; Vargas‐Vargas & Cortés‐Rojo, 2020; Wang, 2020). The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is COVID-19.
