Authors Sample size Prevalence of TE, N (%) Factors affecting the prevalence of TE
Demelo-Rodríguez et al.37 156 23 (14.7) Elevated D-dimer
Zhang et al.35 143
66 (46.1) Higher Padua prediction score, CURB-65 score, elevated D-dimer
Artifoni et al.36 71 23 (32.5) Elevated D-dimer
Xu et al.30 138 4 (2.9) ICU hospitalization
Middeldorp et al.29 198 33 (17) Elevated D-dimer
Chen et al.22 88
40 (46) Elevated D-dimer, hypoalbuminemia, higher SOFA score and inpatient status
Cui et al.23 81 20 (25) Elevated D-dimer, older age, lower
lymphocyte counts, longer APTT
Klok et al.27 184 31 (16.8) Older age
Whyte et al.31 214 80 (37) Elevated D-dimer
Grillet et al.32 100 23 (23) Invasive mechanical ventilation, ICU hospitalization, delay from onset of symptoms to CT scan (days)
Leonard-Lorant, et al.33
106  32 (30) Elevated D-dimer, ICU hospitalization, Delay from onset of symptoms to CT scan (days)
Fraissé et al.24 92 37 (40) Chronic renal failure, invasive mechanical ventilation, elevated D-dimer
Bompard et al.34 135 32 (23.7) More frequently hospitalized in ICU and under mechanical ventilation, longer median hospitalization duration, elevated D-dimer

TE: thrombotic event, ICU: Intensive care unit, APTT: activated partial thromboplastin time, CT: computerized tomography, SOFA: Sequential organ failure assessment, CURB-65: Confusion, urea, respiratory rate, blood pressure, and 65 years of age or older.
