BACKGROUND AND AIM
This study explored the association between BMI and COVID-19 positive status in a tertiary care hospital from New Delhi.
METHODS
Three hundred and seventy nine adult patients who presented to COVID-19 screening outpatient department of the hospital were interviewed over the phone regarding their body weight and height. The COVID-19 RT-PCR report of the patients was extracted from the hospital information system.
RESULTS
The mean BMI and the prevalence of obesity was observed to be higher in individuals who were detected to be COVID-19 RT-PCR positive as compared to those who were negative. With every one-unit increment in BMI above 23 kg/m, the odds of being COVID-19 positive increased by 1.8 times among these patients.
CONCLUSION
The findings suggest a dose-response association between BMI and the odds of COVID-19 infection in individuals with excess weight.
背景与目的
本研究旨在探讨新德里一家三级保健医院中 BMI 与 COVID-19 阳性状态之间的关联。
方法
通过电话访谈 379 名在医院 COVID-19 筛查门诊就诊的成年患者，了解其体重和身高。从医院信息系统中提取患者的 COVID-19 RT-PCR 报告。
结果
与 COVID-19 RT-PCR 阴性的患者相比，检测呈 COVID-19 RT-PCR 阳性的患者的平均 BMI 和肥胖患病率更高。与 BMI 每增加 1 个单位（超过 23kg/m²），这些患者 COVID-19 阳性的几率增加 1.8 倍。
结论
研究结果表明，超重人群的 BMI 与 COVID-19 感染几率之间存在剂量反应关系。
