Introduction: Certain trace elements are essential for life and affect immune system function, and their intake varies by region and population. Alterations in serum Se, Zn and Cu have been associated with COVID-19 mortality risk. We tested the hypothesis that a disease-specific decline occurs and correlates with mortality risk in different countries in Europe. Methods: Serum samples from 551 COVID-19 patients (including 87 nonsurvivors) who had participated in observational studies in Europe
Ethics statement The studies involving human participants were reviewed and approved by Local Ethics Committee of JPH Ghent and UZ Gent, Institutional review boards of the Strasbourg University Hospitals, Bavaria Ethik-Kommission der Bayerischen Landesärztekammer, Local Irish institutional review boards, ethics committee of Istituto Auxologico Italiano in Milan, Italy, Bioethical Committee at Poznan University of Medical Sciences. The patients/participants provided their written informed consent to participate in this study.
