Fig. 8From: Overall reduced lymphocyte especially T and B subsets closely related to the poor prognosis and the disease severity in severe patients with COVID-19 and diabetes mellitusComparison of T lymphocyte levels and percentages among the four subgroups. DM, diabetes mellitus; non-DM, without diabetes mellitus; COVID-19, coronavirus disease 2019. a CD3+āCell count. b CD3+āCell percentage. c CD3+āCD4+ācell count. d CD3+āCD4+ācell percentage. e CD3+āCD8ā+ācell count. f CD3+āCD8ā+ācell percentage. g Ratio of CD4ā+ā/CD8ā+ācells. Unpaired two-way ANOVA was used for interaction comparisons (b Pā<ā0.05; a, cāg, P allā>ā0.05). Unpaired one-way ANOVA was used for intergroup comparisons (a, d, P allā<ā0.01; c Pā<ā0.001; b, eāg, P allā>ā0.05).Unpaired t-tests was used for comparisons with the non-severe non-DM subgroup, *Pā<ā0.05, **Pā<ā0.01, ***Pā<ā0.001. Unpaired t-tests was used for comparisons with the severe non-DM subgroup, #Pā<ā0.05, ##Pā<ā0.01Back to article page
