Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Symptoms are significant kind of phenotypes for managing and controlling of the burst of acute infectious diseases, such as COVID-19. Although patterns of symptom clusters and time series have been considered the high potential prediction factors for the prognosis of patients, the elaborated subtypes and their progression patterns based on symptom phenotypes related to the prognosis of COVID-19 patients still need be detected. This study aims to investigate patient subtypes and their progression patterns with distinct features of outcome and prognosis.
