Participant Flow

A total of 88 participants were registered in the database. Documented COVID-19 positivity was a requirement for analysis, which was met by 20 participants. Among these 20 eligible participants, only 12 underwent the specific diagnostic procedures required to detect thrombosis, while data for the remaining 8 participants are missing as the examinations could not be conducted. All baseline characteristics and final evaluations are therefore reported for this single analyzed pool.

COVID-19 positivity was an eligibility requirement for analysis. Out of all registered patients, only 20 were COVID-19 positive. Due to this extremely small sample size and a lack of statistical power, the prospective and retrospective cohorts were combined into a single analytical pool. Subgroup analyses were impossible. Additionally, only 12 of these 20 participants underwent the specific diagnostic procedures required for full evaluation.

n=60 Participants • The vaccination status was available for 60 out of 84 participants. For the remaining 24 participants, vaccination history could not be reliably retrieved from medical records or patient interviews at the time of enrollment. Therefore, the analysis for this specific baseline characteristic is limited to the sub-population with documented status.
