Plus-minus values are means ± SD. Normal ranges of laboratory findings are as follows: for white blood cell count, (3.5–9.5) × 109/l; for neutrophil count, (1.8–6.3) × 109/l; for lymphocyte count, (1.1–3.2) × 109/l; for platelet count, (125–350) × 109/l; for hemoglobin, (130–175) g/l; for PT, 11.0–16.0 s; for APTT, 28.0–43.5 s; for D-dimer, 0–0.5 mg/l; for CRP, 0–8 mg/l; for ESR, 0–15 mm/h; for albumin, 35–55 g/l; for total bilirubin, 5.1–19.0 μmol/l; for direct bilirubin, 1.7–6.8 μmol/l; for ALT, 5–40 U/l; for AST, 8–40 U/l; for LDH, 109–245 U/l; for urea, 2.9–8.2 mmol/l; for creatinine, 44.0–133.0 μmol/l; for proteinuria, “–” indicates that protein excretion is <10 mg/dl, “+” indicates that protein excretion is between 30 and 100 mg/dl, and “++” indicates that protein excretion is between 100 and 300 mg/dl.
