The decrease in scores on the SHOCS -COVID scale was statistically significant in both groups, and there were no differences between them (delta &#8211; 3.00 (2.90) in the HCQ group and &#8211; 2.69 (1.55) in control, p=0.718). At the same time, in the control group, the CRP level returned to normal (4.06 mg\/dl), and with the use of GC, it decreased but remained above the norm (6.21 mg\/dl, p=0.05). Side effects requiring discontinuation of treatment were reported in 3 patients in the HCQ group and none in the control group. We have not identified any positive properties of HCQ and its ability to influence the severity of COVID-19. This antimalarial agent slows down the normalization of the body&#8217;s inflammatory response and lengthens the time spent in the hospital. HCQ should not be used in the treatment of COVID-19.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hydroxychloroquine in patients with novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19): a case-control study https:\/\/doi.org\/10.18087\/cardio.2021.2.n1548 Analysis for the whole group revealed a statistically significant increase in the time to normalization of body temperature from 4 to 7 days (by 3 days, p&amp;lt;0.001), and&hellip; <span class=\"read-more-span\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nclinnovations.org\/covid19monitor\/19-mar-2021-hydroxychloroquine-did-not-influence-the-severity-of-covid-19\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;(19 Mar 2021) Hydroxychloroquine- did not influence the severity of COVID 19&#8221;<\/span> <span class=\"genericon genericon-next\"><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"bgseo_title":"","bgseo_description":"","bgseo_robots_index":"index","bgseo_robots_follow":"follow"},"categories":[4,9],"tags":[10],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nclinnovations.org\/covid19monitor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/923"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nclinnovations.org\/covid19monitor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nclinnovations.org\/covid19monitor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nclinnovations.org\/covid19monitor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nclinnovations.org\/covid19monitor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=923"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/nclinnovations.org\/covid19monitor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/923\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":924,"href":"https:\/\/nclinnovations.org\/covid19monitor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/923\/revisions\/924"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nclinnovations.org\/covid19monitor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nclinnovations.org\/covid19monitor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nclinnovations.org\/covid19monitor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
