Our results confirm these findings. Although a specific diagnosis is often found on chest CT, this leads to a change in treatment in very few cases, and has no significant effect on prognosis. Clinical practice guidelines suggest the use of oral corticosteroids and antibiotics for COPD exacerbations that require hospital admission.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0195"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> For this reason, more than three quarters of our patients with an alternative diagnosis to PE on chest CT were already receiving specific treatment for that diagnosis, and this could explain why chest CT findings did not modify prognosis in our study.</p><p id="par0110" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Our results have practical consequences.

First, it is a predefined subgroup analysis of patients in the intervention group of a clinical trial who underwent a chest CT scan. The results, therefore, are merely intended to generate hypotheses. Although adjustments were not made for multiplicity, the absence of an independent association between an alternative diagnosis on CT and the primary outcome variable rules out a type I error and makes such adjustment unnecessary. Second, the number of events was too low to draw strong conclusions. Finally, in the SLICE trial, only patients in the intervention group with positive D-dimer results underwent chest CT, so our results cannot be extrapolated to all patients with COPD exacerbation requiring hospital admission.</p><p id="par0120" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In conclusion, chest CT in patients requiring admission for COPD exacerbation provides an alternative diagnosis (other than PE) in 76% of cases. Specific treatment of these pathologies does not improve prognosis in the first 3 months of follow-up.</p></span><span id="sec0060" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span
