Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a viral pulmonary infection that can progress to cytokine storm syndrome because of widespread dysregulated inflammatory response. Many patients at risk for severe COVID-19 manifestation have been identified as those with preexisting conditions of pulmonary origin, as well as conditions that impair appropriate immune response, such as obesity. The aim of this study is to describe the manifestation, clinical course, and inflammatory biomarker milieu of COVID-19 in patients with obesity. University Hospital Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In this retrospective cohort study, 600 patients who were positive for COVID-19 were stratified by World Health Organization (WHO) obesity class and their presenting symptoms, disease biomarkers, demographics, and outcomes (intubation rate, intensive care unit [ICU] admission, length of stay [LOS], and mortality) were investigated. Age was inversely related to obesity class; patients of obesity class III presented 12.9 years younger than patients of normal weight (P < .0001). Initial ferritin lab values were negatively correlated with increasing obesity class (P = .0192). Normal or near-normal lymphocyte profile was noted in patients with obesity compared with patients without obesity (P = .0017). Patients with obesity had an increased rate of ICU admission (P = .0215) and increased length of stay (P = .0004), but no differences in intubation rate (P = .3705) or mortality (P = .2486). Patients with obesity were more likely to present to the hospital at a younger age, with reduced levels of COVID-19 related biomarker disturbances, and increased LOS and ICU admission rates, although were not at increased risk for mortality.
