ObjectivesTo generate comprehensive evidence on the risk of clinical sequelae involving different organ systems over time after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection.DesignMultinational retrospective cohort study.SettingElectronic medical records from the US, UK, France, Germany and Italy standardised to the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model.ParticipantsA total of 303,251 individuals with a COVID-19 infection between 1 December 2019 and 1 December 2020 and propensity score matched non-COVID-19 comparators from 22,108,925 eligible candidates.Main outcome measuresIncidence of 73 clinical sequelae involving multiple organ systems including the respiratory, cardiovascular, dermatological and endocrine systems over the short- (0-6 months), medium- (6-12 months) and long-term (1-2 years) after COVID-19 infection. The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of individual disease outcomes were estimated using Cox proportional hazard regression.ResultsIndividuals with COVID-19 incurred a greater risk of clinical sequelae involving multiple organ systems including respiratory (France HR 2.23, 95%CI [2.10,2.37] to Italy 13.13 [11.80,14.63]), cardiovascular (Germany 1.39 [1.30,1.50] to US 1.79 [1.74,1.85]) and dermatological (UK 1.13 [1.01,1.25] to Italy 1.77 [1.42,2.21]) disorder over the short-term. While the risk of clinical sequelae has largely subsided during the medium-term, the risk of cardiovascular- (US 1.16 [1.11,1.21], France 1.10 [1.01,1.19]) and endocrine- (US 1.18 [1.12,1.24], Germany 1.15 [1.03,1.29]) related complications may continue to persist for up to two years.ConclusionsThrough a network of multinational healthcare databases, this study generated comprehensive and robust evidence supporting the extensive multi-organ involvement of post-COVID-19 condition over the short-term period and the subside in risk for most complications over the medium- and long-term.
目的
生成关于2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)感染后不同时间涉及不同器官系统的临床后遗症风险的全面证据。
设计
多国回顾性队列研究。
设置
来自美国、英国、法国、德国和意大利的电子病历,已标准化为观察性医疗结局合作组织通用数据模型。
参与者
共有303,251名在2019年12月1日至2020年12月1日期间感染COVID-19的个体,以及从22,108,925名符合条件的候选人中通过倾向评分匹配的非COVID-19对照者。
主要结局指标
在COVID-19感染后的短期(0 - 6个月)、中期(6 - 12个月)和长期(1 - 2年)内,涉及包括呼吸、心血管、皮肤和内分泌系统在内的多个器官系统的73种临床后遗症的发生率。使用Cox比例风险回归估计个体疾病结局的风险比(HR)和95%置信区间(95%CI)。
结果
COVID-19感染者在短期内发生涉及多个器官系统临床后遗症的风险更高,包括呼吸系统(法国HR 2.23,95%CI [2.10,2.37]至意大利13.13 [11.80,14.63])、心血管系统(德国1.39 [1.30,1.50]至美国1.79 [1.74,1.85])和皮肤系统(英国1.13 [1.01,1.25]至意大利1.77 [1.42,2.21])疾病。虽然临床后遗症的风险在中期已基本消退,但心血管相关(美国1.16 [1.11,1.21],法国1.10 [1.01,1.19])和内分泌相关(美国1.18 [1.12,1.24],德国1.15 [1.03,1.29])并发症的风险可能会持续长达两年。
结论
通过多国医疗保健数据库网络,本研究生成了全面而有力的证据,支持COVID-19后状况在短期内广泛累及多个器官,以及大多数并发症在中长期风险消退。
