Residual lung abnormality following COVID-19 hospitalisation is characterised by biomarkers of epithelial injury.
Stewart I. eBioMedicine 2026;:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ebiom.2026.106134.
[Long term respiratory symptoms are reported following recovery of acute COVID-19 infection and residual lung abnormalities (RLA) on follow-up thoracic computed tomography (CT) after COVID-19 hospitalisation have been observed. RLA after acute COVID-19 infection were consistent with elevated epithelial injury biomarkers and pro-fibrotic signalling. Future studies should address the temporal association between fibrotic biomarkers and resolution or progression of radiological involvement.]
