TL;DR: In this article , the authors examined the association of frailty with mortality, readmission, and length of stay in older COVID-19 patients and compared the predictive accuracy of the eFI to other frailty and comorbidity measures.

TL;DR: Characteristics of patients who died were in line with the MuLBSTA score, an early warning model for predicting mortality in viral pneumonia, and further investigation is needed to explore the applicability of the Mu LBSTA scores in predicting the risk of mortality in 2019-nCoV infection.

TL;DR: The validity of the Swedish IPR is high for many but not all diagnoses, but for certain research areas the use of other health registers, such as the Swedish Cancer Register, may be more suitable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anticoagulant treatment is associated with decreased mortality in severe coronavirus disease 2019 patients with coagulopathy.
TL;DR: A relatively high mortality of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) is worrying, and the application of heparin in CO VID‐19 has been recommended by some expert consensus because of the risk of disseminated intravascular coagulation and venous thromboembolism, but its efficacy remains to be validated.
