Laboratory results of COVID-19 patients on admission according to acute kidney injury status

Parameter Normal range Total (n=287) AKI (n=55) No AKI (n=232) P
Data are presented as median with interquartile range (IQR) in parenthesis unless specified otherwise. AKI: Acute kidney injury. CT: Computed tomography. NA: Not applicable. 1By PCR tests for influenza A virus, influenza B virus, rhinovirus/enterovirus, respiratory syncytial virus A/B, adenovirus, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, parainfluenza viruses, Bordetella pertussis, Legionella pneumophila, and Chlamydophila pneumoniae. 2For each patient, the initial CT scans were evaluated and a quantitative score was assigned based on characteristics reported in recently published literature[9].
