v10 of our #LivingReview is live on @qeios

We have reviewed 345 studies. 52 of sufficient quality for #MetaAnalysis to explore the association of #Smoking and #COVID19 #infection, #hospitalisation, #severity and #mortality.

No dramatic changes from v9 posted in November.

Most studies from πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ, πŸ‡¨πŸ‡³ & πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ but from 39 countries. 65% hospital based, 8% purely community. Median of 461 individuals per study.

Smoking remains poorly recorded, only 29% of studies categorise as current 🚬, former and never 🚭
6 studies report on alternative nicotine products.

Large amounts of missing data in many studies on 🚬 status introducing bias.

Huge reliance on #ElectronicHealthRecords and all the limitations that brings. See our recent #PrePrint if interested (doi.org/10.1101/2020.1…)
