Abstract：Objective To analyze the risk factors for vulnerable COVID-19 patients.Methods Clinical data of 201 vulnerable COVID-19 patients aged 60 years or more were used to analyze the risk factors for hospitalization mortality.Results There were 158 survivals(78.6%)and 43 deaths(21.4%)of 201 cases.Logistic regression analysis showed C-reactive protein(CRP),ground-glass opacity(GGO),triglycerides,platelet/lymphocyte ratio(PLR),triglyceride-glucose index(TyG),and platelets were independent factors for hospital mortality(P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC),specificity and sensitivity of triglycerides+CRP+GGO+platelets+PLR+TyG were 0.914(95%CI:0.869-0.960,P<0.001),0.744,0.943,respectively for hospital mortality.Conclusion The high hospital mortality of vulnerable COVID-19 patients is associated with triglycerides,TyG,GGO,CRP,PLR,and platelets.
