Matched cohort study reveals increased risk of death or mechanical ventilation in hospitalized COVID-19 organ transplant recipients, highlighting vulnerabilities in immunosuppressed groups.
to be significant predictors of combined death or mechanical ventilation. After multivariate logistic regression analysis, SOT status had a trend toward significance (odds ratio [OR] 1.29; 95% CI 0.99-1.69, p = .06). Compared to an age, gender, and comorbidity-matched control group, SOT patients had a higher combined risk of death or mechanical ventilation (OR 1.34; 95% CI 1.03-1.74, p = .027).
