DD: D-dimer; CRP: C-reactive protein; NE (%): neutrophil percentage; LY (%): lymphocyte percentage; MO (%): monocyte percentage. Values were expressed as the or as indicated. The data of D-dimer was detected by an automatic blood coagulation analyzer (CA7000, Sysmex, Inc., Japan), and the data of CRP was analyzed by an automatic biochemical analyzer (C8000, Abbott, Inc., USA). The data were . , , and vs. healthy control.
