Analysis of the relationship between the new corona and aggravation and death, chronic illness, obesity, etc.
When the National Center for Global Health and Medicine analyzed the course of more than 6,000 inpatients with the new coronavirus, it was found that those with chronic diseases such as the kidneys and heart had a high rate of death.
On the other hand, people with obesity and hyperlipidemia have a higher rate of aggravation, but the rate of death is lower than those with other chronic diseases, so the center will investigate further the factors leading to aggravation and death. I will.
The National Center for Global Health and Medicine has released the results of analyzing the progress of 6070 patients admitted to 345 medical institutions nationwide by the beginning of September.
According to this, the rate of deaths of patients who were hospitalized when the infection spread after June was 10.1% among patients who had severe symptoms at the time of admission and required oxygen inhalation or ventilator, which was the first wave. It was about half of 19.4%, which was significantly lower than in the first wave in all age groups.
The background to this is that after June, the average number of days required from onset to hospitalization was 5.1 days, 2.5 days shorter than in the first wave, and the number of people who were seriously ill at the time of admission was one-fifth. It points out that it is linked to early treatment and that treatment has been established, such as the following.
In addition, when the factors related to death were analyzed, if the patient was severely ill at the time of admission,
▽ 44% of people with renal dysfunction,
▽ 40.5% of people with heart disease,
▽ cerebrovascular accident For some,
the mortality rate for those with these diseases was high
at 39.5%
.
On the other hand, 34.9% of obese people who had severe symptoms at the time of admission were more severe, but 9.6% died and 34.4% of people with hyperlipidemia were more severe. On the other hand, 16.1% died, which means that even if it becomes severe, the rate of death is lower than that of other people with chronic diseases.
Dr. Sho Saito, who conducted the analysis, said, "Even those who are thought to be prone to becoming severely ill may be able to reduce the mortality rate. I would like to work to find a more effective treatment method." We will further analyze the factors that lead to aggravation and death, including lifestyle habits.
