The demographics and initial laboratory indexes with significant differences between the two groups were assessed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis to explore the independent early predictors and risk factors associated with the disease severity of COVID-19. The results of Kaplan-Meier survival curves with log-rank test showed that venerable age (≥60 years old), comorbidity, hypertension, lymphopenia, hypoalbuminemia, elevated NLR and VIEWPOINTS RESEARCH THEME 1: COVID-19 PANDEMIC CRP could obstruct the recovery and discharge of patients ( Table 3 and Figure 3) . According to the order of area under ROC curve from large to small, these early predictors were the severe COVID-19 risk model (0.920), albumin (0.867), NLR (0.835), lymphocyte count (0.826), and age (0.747), successively ( Table 4 and Figure 4) . ./cache/cord-258812-svw6z4bf.txt ./txt/cord-258812-svw6z4bf.txt
