This meta-analysis aims to highlight the impact of cardio-metabolic comorbidities on COVID-19 severity and mortality.
A thorough search on major online databases was done for studies describing the clinical outcomes of COVID-19 patients. We used random-effects model to compute pooled estimates for critical or fatal disease.
A total of 20,475 patients from 33 eligible studies were included. Maximum risk of development of critical or fatal COVID-19 disease was seen in patients with underlying cardiovascular disease [OR: 3.44, 95% CI: 2.65-4.48] followed by chronic lung disease, hypertension and diabetes mellitus. Of the total cases, 64% had one of the four comorbidities with the most prevalent being hypertension with a pooled prevalence of 27%.
Presence of comorbidities like cardiovascular disease, chronic lung disease, hypertension and diabetes mellitus led to a higher risk of development of critical or fatal COVID-19 disease, with maximum risk seen with underlying cardiovascular disease.
本荟萃分析旨在强调心脏代谢合并症对 COVID-19 严重程度和死亡率的影响。
对主要在线数据库进行了全面检索,以查找描述 COVID-19 患者临床结局的研究。我们使用随机效应模型计算重症或致死性疾病的汇总估计值。
共有来自 33 项合格研究的 20475 名患者纳入本研究。患有基础心血管疾病的患者发生重症或致死性 COVID-19 疾病的风险最高[比值比:3.44,95%置信区间:2.65-4.48],其次是慢性肺部疾病、高血压和糖尿病。在所有病例中,有 64%的患者合并有四种合并症中的一种,其中最常见的是高血压,其合并患病率为 27%。
存在心血管疾病、慢性肺部疾病、高血压和糖尿病等合并症会增加发生重症或致死性 COVID-19 疾病的风险,其中基础心血管疾病的风险最高。
