A Case Control Study to Evaluate the Impact of Colchicine on Patients Admitted to the Hospital with Moderate to Severe COVID-19 Infection

Table 4

Comparison of median values of inflammatory markers delta and delta percentage between the colchicine and control groups. Delta values were calculated by subtracting the last measurement from the first measurement. Inflammatory marker delta and delta percentage was nonnormally distributed; the Mann–Whitney U test was used to check for differences in the two groups.

	Colchicine group (N = 34)	Control group (N = 78)	value
D-dimer delta	125	721	0.150
D-dimer delta (percentage)	22	147.3	0.037
LDH delta	−118	−61	0.779
LDH delta (percentage)	−21.6	−9.4	0.417
CRP delta	−33	15	0.116
CRP delta (percentage)	−44.7	16.8	0.014
Ferritin delta	−63	211	0.050
Ferritin delta (percentage)	−9.6	19.3	0.012
