A pooled analysis was then carried out, with calculation of the weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of eosinophil count in patients with or without the severe form of COVID-19. Two additional studies were found from the reference list of the previously identified documents, such that a final https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/qjm total of 4 articles were included. 1,3-5 However, one of these studies was excluded as it failed to provide necessary values for calculating the WMD (i.e., the eosinophil count was below the limit of measurement in both cohort of patients with and without severe COVID-19). 5 Overall, the three remaining studies included 294 patients, 75 of whom (25.5%) with severe COVID-19. ./cache/cord-283909-xwy3rm3f.txt ./txt/cord-283909-xwy3rm3f.txt
