“…It is a well-validated, simple, easy-to-apply index to evaluate patients’ prognosis and survival. During the current pandemic, the severity and mortality of COVID-19 are often predicted by age, gender, and the presence of comorbidities, such as diabetes, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and respiratory diseases [ [34] , [35] , [36] , [37] , [38] , [39] , [40] ]. Advanced age and multiple comorbidities are independent risk factors of mortality for patients with COVID-19 [ 32 ].…”

“…Obesity and diabetes mellitus (DM) are independent, significant risk factors for mortality in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) [ 5 , 16 ]. The presence of excessive body mass index (BMI) and type 2 DM in patients with severe COVID-19 is quite prevalent among other comorbidities, including advanced age, hypertension, and heart, lung, kidney, liver, and cerebrovascular diseases [ [17] , [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] , [25] ]. In addition, physical inactivity or sedentariness commonly observed in these subjects contributed to impaired immune function and increased morbidity and mortality in COVID-19, regardless of the presence of insulin resistance [ 26 , 27 ].…”

“…1 While COVID-19 is easily contracted, only a minority of patients with particular comorbidities will develop severe COVID-19 with features of hyper-inflammation and complications, including acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), multi-organ failure (MOF), and death. [2][3][4][5][6] Hypothetically, the fate of this relentless pandemic might finally be decided by the discovery of either a vaccine or definite treatment for COVID -19. Ever since preliminary evidence was released, showing that anticoagulant administration could reduce mortality of patients with severe COVID-19, 7 the issues of thrombosis and coagulopathy have gained special attention in the pathogenesis and treatment of COVID-19. The persistence of a high incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) even in patients with COVID-19 treated with a standard thromboprophylaxis dose of anticoagulants raises the question of whether the administration of therapeutic-dose anticoagulants may improve the prognosis of patients with COVID-19.…”
