D-dimer level in COVID-19 infection: a systematic review
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: COVID-19 disease has spread worldwide from December 2019 to the present day; the early stage of this disease can be associated with high D-dimer, prolonged PT, and elevated levels of fibrinogen, indicating activation of coagulation pathways and thrombosis. In this article, we analyze the levels of D-dimer in patients with COVID-19. AREA COVERED: In the current study, three databases, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, searched using related keywords and information extracted from articles such as location, sample size, gender, age, coagulation test values, patient results, and disease severity. EXPERT OPINION: D-dimer level is one of the measures used in patients to detect thrombosis. Studies have reported an increase in D-dimer and fibrinogen concentrations in the early stages of COVID-19 disease a 3 to 4-fold rise in D-dimer levels is linked to poor prognosis. In addition, underlying diseases such as diabetes, cancer, stroke, and pregnancy may trigger an increase in D-dimer levels in COVID-19 patients. Measuring the level of D-dimer and coagulation parameters from the early stage of the disease can also be useful in controlling and managing of COVID-19 disease.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
