Sanne A. E. Peters et al.

Summary: This study using data from the UK Biobank found that obesity is associated with an increased risk of COVID-19, influenza/pneumonia, and coronary heart disease mortality, with a higher BMI showing stronger effects on COVID-19 mortality in women compared to men.

Prevalence of Obesity and Its Impact on Outcome in Patients With COVID-19: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Nafiye Helvaci et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the prevalence of obesity in COVID-19 patients and found an association between obesity and increased risk of hospitalization, ICU admission, and need for invasive mechanical ventilation. The study suggests that obesity may contribute to the progression of COVID-19 and increase the risk of serious illness in infected individuals.

Plasma ACE2 predicts outcome of COVID-19 in hospitalized patients

Tue W. Kragstrup et al.

Summary: This study suggests that measuring plasma ACE2 levels may help predict COVID-19 outcomes. Furthermore, ACE2 could serve as a link between COVID-19 severity and established risk factors such as hypertension, pre-existing heart disease, and pre-existing kidney disease.
