This study aimed to investigate whether pre-existing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) was an independent predictor for adverse outcomes in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients.
We searched electronic databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) to screen for eligible articles. A quantitative meta-analysis was performed on the basis of adjusted effect estimates.
We observed that COPD was significantly associated with an increased risk of adverse outcomes in COVID-19 patients, which is based on 18 studies with 26,075 cases reporting adjusted effect estimates (pooled effect = 1.53, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.29-1.8; I2 = 35.4%, random-effects model).
We found that pre-existing COPD was an independent risk factor for predicting the adverse outcomes in COVID-19 patients.
本研究旨在探讨是否存在慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)是 2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)患者不良结局的独立预测因素。
我们检索了电子数据库,包括 PubMed、Web of Science、EMBASE 和中国国家知识基础设施(CNKI),以筛选合格的文章。基于调整后的效应估计值进行了定量荟萃分析。
我们观察到 COPD 与 COVID-19 患者不良结局的风险增加显著相关,这是基于 18 项研究,其中有 26075 例病例报告了调整后的效应估计值(合并效应=1.53,95%置信区间[CI]:1.29-1.8;I2=35.4%,随机效应模型)。
我们发现,预先存在的 COPD 是预测 COVID-19 患者不良结局的独立危险因素。
