@ChristosArgyrop I have a question: it says that “reduced thymic function which was inversely associated with severity of disease.” Does this mean there was greater reduction of function in instances of mild COVID-19 disease, or vice versa? sorry, my lawyer brain can’t figure out how to read that sentence.
I believe the way to read that is that it's inverse because:
high functioning thymus = low severity
low functioning thymus = high severity
So the further reduced it was, the more severe the outcome.
@BE @ChristosArgyrop I believe the severity of the disease refers to severity of the COVID-19 disease.
Correct. So it's inverse because when the thymus is high functioning, the disease is low severity. When the thymus is low functioning, the disease is high severity.
