risk of death, 91.5% lower, RR 0.09, p = 0.32, high D levels 0 of 8 (0.0%), low D levels 9 of 42 (21.4%), NNT 4.7, relative risk is not 0 because of continuity correction due to zero events (with reciprocal of the contrasting arm), >49.92 nmol/L.

risk of ICU admission, 90.5% lower, RR 0.10, p = 0.32, high D levels 0 of 8 (0.0%), low D levels 8 of 42 (19.0%), NNT 5.2, relative risk is not 0 because of continuity correction due to zero events (with reciprocal of the contrasting arm), >49.92 nmol/L.

risk of progression, 81.5% lower, OR 0.19, p = 0.04, high D levels 8, low D levels 42, inverted to make OR<1 favor high D levels, ISTH DIC>=5, >49.92 nmol/L, bivariate, RR approximated with OR.

risk of progression, 44.4% lower, OR 0.56, p = 0.03, high D levels 8, low D levels 42, inverted to make OR<1 favor high D levels, increased D-dimer >2 mg/L, >49.92 nmol/L, multivariate, RR approximated with OR.
