Table 4.

Hematological parameters at admission in hospitalized patients with severe Covid-19. Abbreviations: MCV, mean corpuscular volume; MHC, mean corpuscular hemoglobin; RDW, red blood cell distribution. Normality of data distribution was estimated by the Shapiro–Wilk test. The unpaired Student’s t-test was used to compare numerical variables and data are presented as mean ± standard deviation. * Differences were considered significant when p < 0.05.
