Sahin S, Sezer H, Cicek E, et al. - According to the results, COVID-19 individuals with overweight and obesity demonstrated more severe clinical findings. For COVID-19 and its complications, healthcare providers should take into account that people living with overweight and obesity are at higher risk.

• No significant difference was found among study groups in terms of mortality.

• The results showed that noninvasive mechanical ventilation requirement was higher in group B and D than group A, while it was higher in Group D than Group C (Group B vs. Group A [p = 0.017], Group D vs. Group A [p = 0.001], and Group D vs. Group C [p = 0.016]).

• In Group A, lung involvement was less common, and presence of hypoxia was more common in Group D (Group B vs. Group A [p = 0.025], Group D vs. Group A [p < 0.001], Group D vs. Group B [p = 0.006], and Group D vs. Group C [p = 0.014]).

• Compared with the other groups, the hospitalization rate was lower in Group A; in addition, patients in Group D have the highest rate of hospitalization (Group B vs. Group A [p < 0.001], Group C vs. Group A [p < 0.001], Group D vs. Group A [p < 0.001], Group D vs. Group B [p < 0.001], and Group D vs. Group C [p = 0.010]).
