Table 2. Baseline predictor factors of mortality in adult hospitalized patients with COVID-19.

Characteristic cHR (95%CI) aHR (95%CI)*
Age ≥60 years 2.83 (2.03–3.93) 1.88 (1.32–2.69)
Male 0.91 (0.66–1.25) 0.81 (0.58–1.13)
Obesity 1.16 (0.86–1.57) 0.99 (0.72–1.35)
Diabetes 1.19 (0.84–1.69) 1.10 (0.77–1.59)
Hypertension 1.63 (1.18–2.26) 1.20 (0.85–1.70)
Oxygen saturation
 SaO2 ≥90% Ref. Ref.
 SaO2 89–85% 1.93 (1.07–3.49) 1.86 (1.02–3.39)
 SaO2 84–80% 4.71 (2.65–8.40) 4.51 (2.49–8.12)
 SaO2 <80% 9.13 (5.50–15.14) 7.81 (4.63–13.17)

cHR: Crude hazard ratios; aHRa: Adjusted hazard ratios; CI: Confidence interval; SaO2: Oxygen saturation. Patient in-hospital mortality was adjusted for male sex, age ≥60 years, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and SaO2 value categories of less than 90%.
