FIGURE 2
Association between dementia and delirium, percentage of weight change, and length of stay among hospitalized patients with COVID‐19. Adjusted effect estimates are depicted. The (royal blue color) circle represents the point estimate obtained from the multivariable regression models, signifying the estimated association between dementia status and the individual outcomes of interest. The (black color) horizontal line indicates the upper and lower bounds of the 95% confidence interval around the point estimate. The (red color) dashed vertical line indicates the line of null effect.
