BACKGROUND: @entity1151 ( @entity1151 ) is a common disease with a high mortality rate that is difficult to diagnose and treat. Because of the variety of clinical symptoms and signs, it is difficult to diagnose. Therefore, the diagnosis of @entity1151 is mainly confirmed by imaging techniques. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether there is any corelation of the Wells rule, D-dimer and LDH values with @entity358 ( @entity358 ) findings in @entity1151 diagnosis. MATERIAL/METHODS: A consecutive series of 62 @entity1 , which included 31 males and 31 females, with high/moderate/low risk of @entity887 according to @entity1151 score, selected from the emergency service and/or outpatient clinic, enrolled in this prospective study. The @entity1 with clinical or laboratory findings of elevated D-dimer level or elevated @entity880 dehydrogenase (LDH) level were suspected of @entity887 and underwent tomography. RESULTS: @entity1151 was detected in 26 @entity1 (42%). A significant difference was not detected between tomography finding positive and negative @entity887 in the @entity1 group in terms of age or gender distribution (P=0.221 and P=0.416, respectively). No significant difference was detected between tomography finding positive and negative @entity887 in the @entity1 group in terms of elevated LDH or/and D-dimer levels (P=0.263 and P=1.000, respectively). The distribution of low-risk-factor @entity1 in the @entity887 group, and the distribution of high-risk-factor @entity1 in the @entity887 -positive group was statistically significantly high (P<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference between the groups (P=0.053). Correlation test showed no correlation between LDH and D-dimer levels. (r=0.214, P=0.180). CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, when a @entity1 presents with @entity662 , our carrying out LDH and D-Dimer tests will not exclude @entity1151 without @entity358 . However, we suggest that LDH isoenzymes should be studied in further research.
