Comparison of radiographic findings between patients with D-dimer ≤ 0.7 mg/L and > 0.7 mg/L.

Radiographic finding All D-dimer ≤ 0.70 mg/L D-dimer > 0.70 mg/L P value
(n = 76) (n = 39) (n = 37)
CT score 8.0 (6.0–13.0) 6.0 (4.0–9.5) 12.0 (8.0–15.0)  < 0.001
More than two lobes involvement 75 (98.7%) 38 (97.4%) 37 (100.0%) 1.000
Pleural effusion 2 (2.6%) 0 (0.0%) 2 (5.4%) 0.234
Ground-glass opacity 74 (98.7%) 38 (97.4%) 36 (100.0%) 1.000

Data are expressed as counts and percentage. The Pearson Chi-square or Fisher's Exact Test was used to test the difference between D-dimer groups, as appropriate.
