BACKGROUND The coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)course may be affected by environmental *** studies previously suggested a link between climatological factors and COVID-19 fatality ***,individual-level impact of these factors has not been thoroughly evaluated *** To study the association of climatological factors related to patient location with unfavorable outcomes in *** In this observational analysis of the Society of Critical Care Medicine Discovery Viral Infection and Respiratory Illness Universal Study:COVID-19 Registry cohort,the latitudes and altitudes of hospitals were examined as a covariate for mortality within 28 d of admission and the length of hospital *** for baseline parameters and admission date,multivariable regression modeling was *** estimating equations were used to fit the *** Twenty-two thousand one hundred eight patients from over 20 countries were *** median age was 62(interquartile range:49-74)years,and 54%of the included patients were *** median age increased with increasing latitude as well as the frequency of ***,the percentage of comorbidities was lower in elevated *** within 28 d of hospital admission was found to be 25%.The median hospital-free days among all included patients was 20 *** the significant linear relationship between mortality and hospital-free days(adjusted odds ratio(aOR)=1.39(1.04,1.86),P=0.025 for mortality within 28 d of admission;aOR=-1.47(-2.60,-0.33),P=0.011 for hospital-free days),suggesting that adverse patient outcomes were more common in locations further away from the Equator;the results were no longer significant when adjusted for baseline differences(aOR=1.32(1.00,1.74),P=0.051 for 28-day mortality;aOR=-1.07(-2.13,-0.01),P=0.050 for hospital-free days).When we looked at the altitude’s effect,we discovered that it demonstrated a non-linear association with mortality wi
