Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index; WHO, World Health Organization.

a

Self-reported using mutually exclusive categories.

b

Data were obtained from the medical record for each patient.

c

Calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared.

d

Assessed at randomization. Eight-level ordinal scale representing the worst clinical status on a given day. Level 1 was defined as ambulatory and not hospitalized, no limitation of activities; level 2, ambulatory and not hospitalized with limitation of activities or receiving home oxygen therapy; level 3, hospitalized with mild disease, not receiving oxygen therapy; level 4, hospitalized with mild disease and receiving oxygen by mask or nasal prongs; level 5, hospitalized with severe disease and receiving noninvasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen; level 6, hospitalized with severe disease and receiving invasive mechanical ventilation; level 7, hospitalized with severe disease and receiving invasive mechanical ventilation plus additional organ support with vasopressors, kidney replacement therapy, or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; and level 8, dead.

e

Prior to or on the day of randomization and included use of any vasopressors or inotropes (eg, dobutamine, dopamine, epinephrine, milrinone, norepinephrine, phenylephrine, and vasopressin).

f

Additional baseline patient characteristics and usual care in-hospital medications before randomization appear in eTables 7-8 in Supplement 1.

g

Collected as part of the medical history questionnaire and did not distinguish specific medications or doses.
