research Genetic and Hormonal Influence on SARS-CoV-2 Infection Susceptibility
Men may be more vulnerable to severe COVID-19 due to genetic and hormonal factors, but more research is needed.
research Host Genetic Susceptibility and Impacts of Dietary Factors on COVID-19
Certain genes and nutrients like vitamin D, zinc, and omega fatty acids affect COVID-19 severity and infection risk.
research The Impact of Certain Genetic Variants (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) on Incidence and Severity of COVID-19
Certain genetic differences may affect how likely someone is to get COVID-19 and how severe it might be.
research From Bedside to Bench: Regulation of Host Factors in SARS-CoV-2 Infection
The conclusion is that certain genetic factors and blood types may affect COVID-19 severity, but changes in ACE2 and TMPRSS2 genes are not clearly linked to it.
