Abstract :
The studies conducted to determine the prognostic significance and statistical validity of empirically selected anthropometric, clinical, instrumental, and laboratory parameters allowed us to develop integral scales for predicting the probability of a severe course of CAT in different age groups of patients. Our proposed new integral scales for predicting the likelihood of a severe course of CAT in different age groups of patients have a high sensitivity and specificity. Its widespread use will therefore allow an objective assessment of the severity of the course of CAT in different age groups of patients, which will consequently lead to improved treatment outcomes in these patients.
