RESUMO

In the backdrop of the global obesity pandemic, recognized as a notable risk factor for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) complications, the study aims to explore clinical and epidemiological attributes of hospitalized COVID-19 patients throughout 2021 in Brazil. Focused on four distinct age cohorts, the investigation scrutinizes parameters such as intensive care unit (ICU) admission frequency, invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) usage, and in-hospital mortality among individuals with and without obesity. Using a comprehensive cross-sectional study methodology, encompassing adult COVID-19 cases, data sourced from the Influenza Epidemiological Surveillance Information System comprises 329 206 hospitalized patients. Of these individuals, 26.3% were affected by obesity. Analysis reveals elevated rates of ICU admissions, increased dependence on IMV, and heightened in-hospital mortality among the individuals with obesity across all age groups (p < .001). Logistic regression, adjusting for confounding variables, underscores a progressively rising odds ratio for mortality in younger age brackets: 1.2 (95%CI 1.1-1.3) for those under 50 years, 1.1 (95%CI 1.0-1.2) for the 50-59 age group, and 1.1 (95%CI 1.0-1.2) for the 60-69 age group. Conversely, no significant mortality difference is observed for patients over 70 years (OR: 0.972, 95%CI 0.9-1.1). In summary, hospitalized COVID-19 patients with obesity, particularly in younger age groups, exhibit elevated rates of ICU admission, IMV requirement, and in-hospital mortality compared with the control group. Notably, the 'obesity paradox' is not evident among hospitalized COVID-19 patients in 2021.
