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 |
Consolidation | 55 (73.3%) | 29 (74.4%) | 26 (72.2%) | 1.000 |
Reticulation and/or traction bronchiectasis | 48 (64.0%) | 18 (46.2%) | 30 (83.3%) | 0.002 |
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.
