Multivariable linear regression was used to measure odds ratios (OR), confidence intervals (CI) and p-values for the statistically significant variables evaluated in Table 3 with respect to the length of hospital stay for hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Bold p-values lower than 0.05 were considered statistically significant.
