BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Obesity, defined by body mass index (BMI), is a well-known risk factor for the severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Adipose tissue distribution has also been implicated as an important factor in the body's response to infection, and excess visceral fat (VF), which is prevalent in Japanese, may contribute significantly to the severity. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the association of obesity and VF with COVID-19 severe illness in Japan.
SUBJECTS/METHODS: This retrospective cohort study involved 550 COVID-19 patients admitted to a tertiary care hospital with BMI and body composition data, including VF. The primary endpoint was severe illness, including death, due to COVID-19 during hospitalization. Logistic regression analysis was applied to examine the quartiles of BMI and VF on severe illness after adjusting for covariates such as age, sex, subcutaneous fat, paraspinal muscle radiodensity, and comorbidities affecting VF (COPD, cancer within 5 years, immunosuppressive agent use).
RESULTS: The median age was 56.0 years; 71.8% were males. During hospitalization, 82 (14.9%) experienced COVID-19 severe illness. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, Q4 of BMI was not significantly associated with severe illness compared to Q1 of BMI (OR 1.03; 95% CI 0.37-2.86; p = 0.95). Conversely, Q3 and Q4 of VF showed a higher risk for severe illness compared to Q1 of VF (OR 2.68; 95% CI 1.01-7.11; p = 0.04, OR 3.66; 95% CI 1.30-10.26; p = 0.01, respectively). Stratified analysis by BMI and adjusted for covariates showed the positive association of VF with severe illness only in the BMI < 25 kg/m2 group.
CONCLUSIONS: High BMI was not an independent risk factor for COVID-19 severe illness in hospitalized patients in Japan, whereas excess VF significantly influenced severe illness, especially in patients with a BMI < 25 kg/m2.
