    Abstract

    The purpose of this case report is to describe the imaging and associated clinical features of an asymptomatic novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) patient outside WuHan, China. The principle findings are that in this patient with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19, CT findings preceded symptoms and included bilateral pleural effusions, previously not reported in association with COVID-19. The role of this case report is promotion of potential recognition amongst radiologists of this new disease, which has been declared a global health emergency by the World Health Organization (WHO).

    • Imaging features of 2019 novel coronavirus pneumonia Xi Xu, Chengcheng Yu, Lieguang Zhang, Liangping Luo & Jinxin Liu DOI：https://doi.org/10.1007/s00259-020-04720-2 Recently, a type of pneumonia caused by a novel Betacoronavirus, the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), has spread in China, mainly in Wuhan [1]. It is known that cases of this disease have also been identified in other provinces of China [2]. A 53-year-old man has lived in Wuhan for many years, and recently came to Guangzhou, China. He was admitted to the hospital with fever and cough in the last 2 days, and his highest body temperature was 38.3 °C before admission. The laboratory examinations showed decreased white blood cell count (2.50 × 109/L) and elevated C-reactive protein (16.2 mg/L; normal range 0–10 mg/L). Non-contrast-enhanced chest computed tomography (CT) (Fig. 1a, b) showed multiple, bilateral, peripheral, patchy ground glass opacities, lobular, and subsegmental, with fading margins. The lesions had mainly a subpleural distribution. CT also demonstrated slight thickening of the adjacent pleura (yellow arrow) and interlobular septa in the lesion (red arrow). Subsequently, the patients had laboratory-confirmed 2019-nCoV infection by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). After 5 days, CT scan (Fig. 1c, d) showed enlarged lesions, compared with previous images, and progressive ground glass opacities in both lower lobes, indicating disease progression. Infection with 2019-nCoV was confirmed based on the patient’s epidemiological history, clinical manifestations, imaging characteristics, and laboratory tests. Bilateral, multiple, patchy, or ground glass opacities, with subpleural distribution, were the lung CT appearances of this patient, affected by 2019-nCoV pneumonia. These characteristics should be recognized by professionals working in imaging departments.

    • Early Prediction of Disease Progression in 2019 Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia Patients Outside Wuhan with CT and Clinical Characteristics Zhichao Feng, Qizhi Yu, Shanhu Yao, Lei Luo, Junhong Duan, Zhimin Yan, Min Yang, Hongpei Tan, Mengtian Ma, Ting Li, Dali Yi, Ze Mi, Huafei Zhao, Yi Jiang, Zhenhu He, Huiling Li, Wei Nie, Yin Liu, Jing Zhao, Muqing Luo, Xuanhui Liu, Pengfei Rong, Wei Wang doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.02.19.20025296 Abstract Objective: To determine the predictive value of CT and clinical characteristics for short-term disease progression in patients with 2019 novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP). Materials and Methods: 224 patients with confirmed 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19) infection outside Wuhan who had chest CT examinations were retrospectively screened. Clinical data were obtained from electronic medical records. CT images were reviewed and scored for lesion distribution, lobe and segment involvement, ground-glass opacities, consolidation, and interstitial thickening. All included patients with moderate NCP were observed for at least 14 days from admission to determine whether they exacerbated to severe NCP (progressive group) or not (stable group). CT and clinical characteristics between the two groups were compared, and multivariate logistic regression and sensitivity analyses were performed to identify the risk factors for developing severe NCP. Results: A total of 141 patients with moderate NCP were included, of which 15 (10.6%) patients developed severe NCP during hospitalization and assigned to the progressive group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that higher neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) (odds ratio [OR] and 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.26 [1.04-1.53]; P = 0.018) and CT severity score (OR and 95% CI, 1.25 [1.08-1.46]; P = 0.004) on admission were independent predictors for progression to severe NCP, and sensitivity analysis confirmed the consistent results in nonimported patients but not in imported patients. However, no significant difference in lung involvement was found on CT between imported and nonimported patients (all P > 0.05). Patients who were admitted more than 4 days from symptom onset tended to have more severe lung involvement. Spearman correlation analysis showed the close association between CT severity score and inflammatory indexes (r = 0.17~0.47, all P < 0.05). Conclusion: CT severity score was associated with inflammatory levels and higher NLR and CT severity score on admission were independent risk factors for short-term progression in patients with NCP outside Wuhan. Furthermore, early admission and surveillance by CT should be recommended to improve clinical outcomes. *注，本文为预印本论文手稿，是未经同行评审的初步报告，其观点仅供科研同行交流，并不是结论性内容，请使用者谨慎使用.
