PCT and CRP's trend difference in nonsurvivor and survivor groups were highly significant ( p -value < 0.0001) ( Table 1 ).
PCT and CRP's trend difference in nonsurvivor and survivor groups were highly significant ( p -value < 0.0001) ( Table 1 ).
An increasing trend of PCT and CRP was associated with a significant increase in the risk of mortality by 13.4 and 20.8 times, respectively ( p -value < 0.001 and 0.0001%), compared with patients who did not have increasing trends of PCT and CRP ( Table 4 ).
