C-reactive protein (CRP) and D-dimer are biomarkers that are well-established prognostic factors for COVID-19 severity and mortality. However, there is limited knowledge on the association of these biomarkers with post-COVID-19 sequelae. On the other hand, impairment of lung diffusing capacity for c...
