The PCR results contains
nucleocapsid
protein (N) gene and open reading frame
(ORF)
gene. N gene Ct value was 30 (18–34), and ORF gene was 33 (20–36).The
median of total lung volume was 3088ml (1055–3809ml), GGO pattern was
833ml (392–1047ml) and its corresponding ratio to total lung was 30.3%
(8.1%–40.3%); while the consolidation pattern was 186ml (63–316ml),
the ratio was 7.2% (1.7%–11.4%); the affected lung was 1045ml
(482–1359ml),
and the ratio was 39% (10%–55%).
ROC
test results showed the area under the curve (AUC) for N gene, ORF gene,
leukomonocyte count, N gene + leukomonocyte count, and ORF gene +
leukomonocyte
count were 0.562, 0.567, 0.703, and 0.582, respectively when adjusted
with age, gender, and C reaction protein level
(p
<0.05 results are shown in Fig. 3).
