- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method It is expected to find a clinical improvement in patients hospitalized with covid 19 who were supplemented with whole red grape juice, verified by a decrease in systemic inflammation with a reduction in the inflammatory marker PRC (C-reactive protein) and a reduction in oxidant markers.;A decrease in the inflammatory marker CRP (C-reactive protein) was observed in both groups. In the Control Group a reduction of 33.81% was observed, however, in the Grape Juice Group the reduction was 71.64%. There was a small increase in the oxidative marker MPO (myeloperoxidase)
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method It is expected that, with the reduction of inflammatory and oxidative stress markers, there will be a clinical improvement in hospitalized patients, and, therefore, there will be a decrease in the hospitalization time of these patients;There was a much greater reduction in the inflammatory marker CRP (C-reactive protein) in the grape juice group, causing a shorter hospital stay in these patients around 6.85 days, while the control group remained hospitalized around 9.94 days
