    Snippet: Underreporting of comorbidities, which could have stemmed from the lack of awareness and/or the lack of diagnostic testing, might contribute to the underestimation of the true strength of association with the clinical prognosis. However, significant underreporting was unlikely because the spectrum of our report was largely consistent with existing literature [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] and all patients were subject to a thorough history taking after hosp.....
    Document: Underreporting of comorbidities, which could have stemmed from the lack of awareness and/or the lack of diagnostic testing, might contribute to the underestimation of the true strength of association with the clinical prognosis. However, significant underreporting was unlikely because the spectrum of our report was largely consistent with existing literature [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] and all patients were subject to a thorough history taking after hospital admission. Moreover, the duration of follow-up was relatively short and some patients remained in the hospital as of the time of writing. More studies that explore the associations in a sufficiently long time frame are warranted. As with other observational studies, our findings did not provide direct inference about the causation or reverse causation of comorbidities and the poor clinical outcomes.
