Risk Predictors for Mortality in Inpatients with Cancer and Coronavirus Disease 2019 during the Omicron Wave by Kuan-Yu Chen, Chih-Cheng Lai, Chien-Tai Huang, Yin-Hsun Feng

“…Univariate logistic regression revealed the following factors to be significantly associated with a higher risk of inhospital mortality among the patients with cancer and COVID-19: nosocomial COVID-19 infection (P = 0.037), lung metastasis (P = 0.005), received anticancer therapy in the preceding 3 months (P = 0.083), active and progressing cancer (P = 0.008), and quick Sequential Organ Function Assessment (qSOFA) score ≥2 (P < 0.001). However, only nosocomial infection (P = 0.021) and qSOFA score ≥2 (P < 0.001) were independent predictors of inhospital mortality in the multivariate logistic regression analysis. …”
