*

Overweight is defined as a body mass index ≥25 and <30 for adults and ≥85th percentile and <95th percentile for children of the same age and sex. Obesity is defined as a body mass index ≥30 for adults and ≥95th percentile for children of the same age and sex according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Missing values exist.

At HCoV diagnosis.

§

Copathogens: human rhinovirus 21, RSV 17, parainfluenza virus 14, human metapneumovirus 9, human bocavirus 8, influenza virus 6, adenovirus 5 (the total number of copathogens are larger than that of patients with copathogens detected, since some patients had >1 pathogen).

||

Defined as a pathogen or antigen (bacteria, fungi, virus, Aspergillus galactomannan enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) detected in a blood within 2 d of HCoV diagnosis.

Copathogens: cytomegalovirus (any positive) 27, adenovirus 3, Aspergillus galactomannan enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay 2, Candida albicans 1, Clostridium septicum 1, Viridans Streptococcus 1, Hafnia alvei 1, EBV 1, human herpes virus 6 1, and BK virus 1 (the total number of copathogens are larger than that of patients with copathogens detected since some patients had >1 pathogens).

#

Using nearest value within 2 weeks before HCoV diagnosis.

**

Lowest albumin value in the 2 weeks before HCoV diagnosis.

††

Using values within 2 weeks before HCoV diagnosis.

‡‡

Highest daily steroid dose in the 2 weeks before HCoV diagnosis.

§§

Highest HbA1c within 3 months before HCoV diagnosis.
