Similarly, PTE was higher in patients who had a critical illness (p = 0.002; OR 9.5), lower hemoglobin and ferritin levels (p = 0.02 and p = 0.04, respectively), higher mcHIS scores (p = 0.002), peak levels of CRP (p < 0.001), d-dimer (p < 0.001), pneumothorax (p = 0.03; OR 4.8), ACS (p < 0.001; OR 15), and mortality (p = 0.03; OR 4.7) (Table 3). This evidence concerns the gene CRP and pneumothorax.
