Featured article: Obesity is associated with increased severity of disease in COVID-19 pneumonia
Obesity has been widely reported to be associated with the disease progression of COVID-19, although studies have reported different findings. In this review, Chu et al conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the association between obesity and poor outcomes of COVID-19 patients by performing a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Findings demonstrated that obesity was associated with poor prognosis for SARS-CoV-2 infection that comprised severe COVID-19, ICU care, IMV use, and disease progression, especially among younger patients. However, the meta-analysis did not find an association between obesity and hospital mortality.
