For pregnant patients, additional relevant data on pregnancy and gynecological history were collected.

Routine laboratory measurements of peripheral blood parameters, including complete blood count, C-reactive protein, lactate dehydrogenase activity, and D-dimer concentration, were performed during the hospital stay.

Patient data were collected at the case level summarized in their respective groups. For secondary objectives, several comparative analyzes were performed regarding comorbidity-related parameters and available risk factors. A significance level (α) of 0.05 was used for statistical significance.
