Table IV.

Associations between comorbidities and hospitalization on days 0-28, ICU admission on days 0-28, and hospitalization on days 1-28

Comorbidities Adjusted odds of hospitalization
Hospitalized on days 0-28 (n/N = 284/1877), OR (95% CI) ICU admission on days 0-28 (n/N = 117/1877), OR (95% CI) Hospitalized on days 1-28 (n/N = 93/1686), OR (95% CI)
SCD 6.9 (3.0-15.9) --- 8.2 (2.7-25.2)
Immunocompromising condition 6.4 (3.8-10.8) 2.2 (1.0-4.8)§ 9.2 (4.7-18.1)
Obesity 3.2 (2.1-4.9) 4.7 (2.8-7.6) 2.9 (1.5-5.7)
CKD 3.1 (0.8-11.1) 0.4 (0.1-3.7) 6.3 (1.4-27.2)
Diabetes 3.0 (1.4-6.2) 1.7 (0.7-4.7) 3.3 (1.1-9.9)
Neurologic disease 2.8 (1.8-4.3) 1.8 (0.9-3.3) 3.7 (2.0-7.1)
Pulmonary disease (excluding mild asthma) 1.9 (1.2-3.1) 2.5 (1.4-4.5) 2.1 (1.0-4.3)§
Heart disease 1.6 (0.8-3.2) 2.3 (1.0-5.3)§ 2.0 (0.8-5.2)
Race/ethnicity (reference: white, non-Hispanic)
 Hispanic 4.0 (2.7-5.9) 2.8 (1.7-4.7) 2.1 (1.2-3.9)
 Black, non-Hispanic 2.4 (1.6-3.7) 1.5 (0.8-2.7) 1.6 (0.9-3.1)
 Asian, non-Hispanic 5.9 (2.6-13.1) 3.5 (1.2-10.2) 3.8 (1.0-14.4)§
 Other, non-Hispanic 3.9 (1.6-9.5) 2.9 (0.9-9.4) 1.7 (0.3-8.4)
 Missing 1.6 (1.0-2.6)§ 0.9 (0.4-1.8) 0.9 (0.4-2.0)

The models are adjusted for race/ethnicity.

For each comorbidity variable, the reference is absence of that comorbidity. Models are adjusted for all comorbidities and race/ethnicity.

Patients who were hospitalized on day 0 have been removed from the analysis of patients hospitalized between days 1 and 28.

SCD was removed from the model because no patients with SCD were admitted to the ICU, and thus OR could not be computed.
