Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:Our study should be interpreted in the context of the following limitations. Our evaluation was limited by its focus on a single academic medical center and a relatively small number of patients. However, our cohort of nearly 400 patients was diverse in sex and race and larger than many earlier reports. As compared to a recently described large cohort of 5,700 patients hospitalized with COVID-19 in New York, our study cohort had a higher proportion of African Americans (43% vs. 23%) and patients with chronic kidney disease (38% vs. 5%), congestive heart failure (21% vs. 7%), hypertension (75% vs. 57%), and similar proportions of women (43% vs. 40%), diabetes (42% vs. 34%), and obesity (42% vs. 42%).2 Our proposed EDI thresholds may be influenced by local factors, including patterns of COVID-19 testing, triage, and decision-making about hospital admissions and hospital-to-hospital transfers that contributed to our study cohort. These EDI thresholds should be validated in other settings to assess their generalizability.
