Table 2 Correlation between CURB-65 and PSI in correlation to delta MPV and RDW

From: Mean platelet volume change (∆MPV) and red blood cell distribution width (RDW) as promising markers of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) outcome

	Delta MPV		RDW
	r	P	r	P
PSI	0.41	< 0.001	0.33	< 0.001
CURB-65	0.39	< 0.001	0.34	< 0.001

Date expressed as r (strength of correlation), P (significance of correlation). P value was significant if < 0.05. MPV mean platelet volume, RDW red cell distribution width, PSI pneumonia severity index
