Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases independently of other risk factors. However, data on its effect on cardiovascular outcomes in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) hospitalizations with varied obesity levels is scarce. Clinical management and patient care depend on understanding COVID-19 admission results in NAFLD patients with varying obesity levels.

- The study investigates how traditional cardiovascular disease risk factors impact outcomes in Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) hospitalizations using a large sample from the 2019 National Inpatient Sample.
- A significant portion of TTS patients, particularly older and mostly female, show a strong correlation between diabetes with complications and complicated hypertension and worse cardiovascular outcomes.
- Interestingly, some risk factors like hyperlipidemia and uncomplicated hypertension surprisingly show a negative association with adverse outcomes, suggesting the need for further research and a focus on managing traditional CVD risk factors in TTS patients.
