Fig. 4: A comparison of 30-day events among patients living with and without obesity in each database, by COVID-19 cohort type (diagnosed and hospitalized).

Proportion of outcomes for COVID-19 patients living with obesity (red) and without obesity (blue) are depicted in overlapped horizontal bars. The gray color is the overlap between groups. E.g., in the diagnosed cohort, 20 and 10% of patients living with and without obesity in SIDIAP, respectively, were hospitalized. Outcomes with a meaningful difference (|SMD| > 0.1) between patients living with obesity and patients without obesity are marked with an asterisk (*).
