We correlated the patients’ QSM signals with disease severity (duration ofhospital admission and COVID-19 severity scale), inflammatory response during the acuteillness (C-reactive protein, D-dimer and platelet levels), functional recovery (modifiedRankin scale), depression (Patient Health Questionnaire-9) and anxiety (GeneralizedAnxiety Disorder-7). Here, CRP is linked to depressive symptom measurement.
