Title: Obesity is associated with worse outcomes in COVIDâ€19: Analysis of Early Data From New York City Cord-id: 927eixr2 Document date: 2020_5_29

Snippet: OBJECTIVE: The 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVIDâ€19) has triggered a rapidlyâ€expanding global pandemic in which patients exhibit a wide spectrum of disease severity. Given the high prevalence of obesity in the United States, we hypothesized that the presence of obesity may play a role in the clinical course of COVIDâ€19 patients. METHODS: This is a retrospective review of adult patients admitted with confirmed SARSâ€CoVâ€2. Demographics, clinical characteristics, laboratory data, and
Document: OBJECTIVE: The 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVIDâ€19) has triggered a rapidlyâ€expanding global pandemic in which patients exhibit a wide spectrum of disease severity. Given the high prevalence of obesity in the United States, we hypothesized that the presence of obesity may play a role in the clinical course of COVIDâ€19 patients. METHODS: This is a retrospective review of adult patients admitted with confirmed SARSâ€CoVâ€2. Demographics, clinical characteristics, laboratory data, and clinical outcomes were abstracted. BMI (kg/m(2)) was analyzed with regard to a composite outcome of ICU admission or death, and intubation rate. RESULTS: 770 patients were included (61% male, mean age 63.5 yrs). Obese patients were more likely to present with fever, cough and shortness of breath. Obesity was also associated with a significantly higher rate of ICU admission or death (RR = 1.58, p = 0.002) even after adjusting for age, race and troponin level. CONCLUSIONS: Obese patients had an increased risk of critical illness leading to ICU admission or death compared to normal weight individuals. This study confirms that obesity is a major risk factor for COVIDâ€19 disease severity, significantly impacting disease presentation and critical care requirements.
