Panel A–D showed red blood cell, white blood cell, neutrophils and lymphocytes count changes following time. There was a clear trend of decreased red blood cell count (A), while white blood cell and neutrophils numbers were increased (B,C). There was a fluctuation of blood lymphocytes changes (D). There were more significant changes of blood cells in non-survived patients within 4 days after hospitalization, especially the lymphocyte count decreasing 3 and 4 days after admission in non-survived group. (*, P<0.05), data represents as median +/−25–75% CI. Open triangle, survival group; solid triangle, non-survived group; solid circle, all patients. RBC, red blood cell; WBC, white blood cell.
