      Objective: The non-invasive and inexpensive predictive indicators seem to be essential for the evaluation of coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) prognosis. Uric acid to high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol ratio (UHR) have been known as inflammatory and metabolic biomarker in some disorders. This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of serum uric acid (UA) and UHR values on admission as prognostic indicators for the severity and mortality of COVID-19. Regression models were accomplished to assess the association between UA and UHR with the severity and mortality of COVID-19. Results: This study was performed with 424 confirmed COVID-19 patients. The mean UA and UHR values of the severe group and deceased group were statistically higher than those mild group and survivor group, respectively (P < 0.05). Compared to the survivor cases, deceased subjects had lower serum concentrations of HDL-c (p < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that UHR and UA values statistically are correlated with the severity (OR = 1.20 CI:1.07–1.35, OR = 1.19 CI:1.023–1.381 respectively) and mortality (OR = 10.04 CI:1.50–67.30, OR = 10.73 CI:1.47–87.11, respectively) of COVID-19. Compared with a reference range, serum UA levels ≥ 7.3 mg/dl and a UHR value greater than 0.185 increase the risk of critical care of COVID-19 almost 2.5 and 3.5 times, respectively. In summary, our results revealed that UHR index value and serum UA levels are useful biochemical indicators for predicting the severity and mortality of COVID-19. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
