Prospective cohort study
Medical records
273
273 diagnosed COVID-19 patients with mild category in Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center were included in this analysis.
The average age of 273 COVID-19 patients enrolled with imaging progression were older than those without imaging progression (p = 0.006). The optimal cutoff of age for predicting imaging progression on chest CT was 51 years.
Total
7 Day
COVID-19 (severe/critical)
71
71 COVID-19 patients suffered from imaging progression on chest CT at first week after admission, and the other 202 patients were imaging progression-free on chest CT.
Status
Time from symptom onset to hospital admission
COVID-19 patients with period from onset to admission + or - (4) days had lower risk to develop imaging progression on chest CT at first week after admission.
