Introduction: Infection with SARS-CoV-2 spread rapidly around the world and is recognized by the World Health Organization as a pandemic. Psychological disorders, such as anxiety, have caused countless problems for societies during the last years. In the present study, various clinical features of patients with COVID-19 disease, particularly psychosomatic symptoms, were investigated. Materials and Methods: Clinical characteristics of 2928 patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, including risk factors such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease as well as anxiety were collected in different cities in Iran (Tehran, Karaj, Hamedan, and Kermanshah) and analyzed. Results: Our data have shown different patterns of clinical features and anxiety rates in patients with COVID-19 in various regions of Iran. However, the characteristics of chronic inflammatory lung disease were similar in these patients in various areas. Conclusion: Geographical factors, as well as the medical facilities of the participants, may affect the clinical features of patients with COVID-19 disease. |
