Prognostic Markers in Hospitalized COVID-19 Patients: The Role of IP-10 and C-Reactive Protein

Table 3

Routine laboratory findings and multiplex quantifications after 7 days hospitalization in patients with an adverse disease evolution (death/ICU admitted) vs. all the other patients. Data are expressed as medians (IQR). Bold text highlights the statistically significant results.
