Figure 3

Scatter plots of inflammatory biomarker levels among participants in study of high-dose convalescent plasma for treatment of severe COVID-19, Brazil. A) C-reactive protein (CRP); total 80 patients (26 CCP, 54 control) on day 0 and 56 (20 CCP, 36 control) on day 7. B) Interleukin-6 (IL-6); total 39 patients (15 CCP, 24 control) on day 0 and 27 (11 CCP, 16 control) on day 7. Horizontal bars indicate medians. C0, control group day 0; C7, control group day 7; COVID-19, coronavirus disease; CCP, COVID-19 convalescent plasma; NS, not significant; P0, convalescent plasma group day 0; P7, convalescent plasma group day 7.
