Changes in laboratory test data before and after treatment of
the novel coronavirus infection
This study compared changes in clinical data at admission, 7 days after
admission, and at discharge for three treatment modalities, including
inflammation-related indicators, such as interleukin 6, CRP, PCT,
T-lymphocyte counts, absolute lymphocyte levels, novel coronavirus
N-gene CT levels, and ORF1ab-gene CT levels. Differences between the
three groups were found in absolute T-lymphocyte levels 7 days after
admission and at discharge (P= 0.015, P=0.004) and lymphocyte counts at
admission, 7 days after admission, and at discharge (P=0.032, P=0.000,
P=0.000), with no significant differences in other clinical data between
the three groups.
The changes in CRP, IL6 and PCT levels at admission, 7 days after
admission, and at discharge are shown in Figure 2.
Changes in T-lymphocyte count and absolute lymphocyte values at
admission, 7 days after admission, and at discharge are shown in Figure
2.
Changes in the CT values of the N gene and those of the ORF 1ab gene for
the novel coronavirus nucleic acid test are shown in detail in Figure 2.
