Table 4.
Association between incidence of severe COVID-19 with NLR by logistic regression (N = 210)
| NLR | Severe/Total (%) |
Crude OR (95% CIs) |
Model 1 OR (95% CIs) |
Model 2 OR (95% CIs) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tertile 1 (0.6–2.5) | 9 (10.3%) | 1 (reference) | 1 (reference) | 1 (reference) |
| Tertile 2 (2.6–5.0) | 32 (36.8%) | 4.1 (1.7–10.2) | 2.5 (0.8–7.5) | 1.6 (0.5–5.9) |
| Tertile 3 (5.1–19.7) | 46 (52.9%) | 10.1 (4.0–25.6) | 7.8 (2.3–26.4) | 5.9 (1.3–28.5) |
Data are presented as n (%) or OR (95% CI). Model 1 was adjusted for age, C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, procalcitonin, diabetes and hypertension. Model 2 was further adjusted for LDH, WBC, D-dimer, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells. COVID-19, coronavirus disease 2019; NLR, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio.
