Table 6.
The above table compares the mean of C‐reactive protein, age, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and computed tomography score and their effects on computed tomography findings using Mann-Whitney test
Variable | Age | CRP | ESR | CT score | Values |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Consolidation | 55.9±16.01 | 50.98±40.88 | 54.17±28.14 | 16.7±4.73 | Mean |
0.619 | 0.029 | 0.003 | 0.001 | P | |
GGO | 55.79±15.73 | 50.08±42.95 | 52.33±28.61 | 16.14±5.10 | Mean |
0.13 | 0.68 | 0.47 | 0.78 | P | |
Bronchial changes | 59.92±16.01 | 48.96±38.88 | 53.80±33.74 | 16.4±5.92 | Mean |
0.17 | 0.96 | 0.97 | 0.87 | P | |
Air bronchogram | 59.92±16.01 | 48.96±38.88 | 53.80±33.74 | 16.4±5.92 | Mean |
0.17 | 0.96 | 0.97 | 0.87 | P | |
Bronchial distortion | 64.18±14.02 | 61.9±40.12 | 62.81±38.24 | 17.09±5.88 | Mean |
0.02 | 0.19 | 0.36 | 0.75 | P |
As seen, there is a significant relationship between CRP, ESR, CT score, and consolidation, moreover, bronchial distortion and age showed a significant correlation. GGO: Ground-glass opacity, CRP: C‐reactive protein, ESR: Erythrocyte sedimentation rate, CT: Computed tomography
