Objective: This study sought to estimate body composition values by disease severity in patients recovered from COVID-19. Methods: This was an observational, analytical, prospective cross-sectional study involving patients recovered from COVID-19 and employing the following assessment methods: bioelectrical impedance analysis, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, and air displacement plethysmography. Results: A total of 210 volunteers were included. Demographic characteristics, comorbidities, and body composition values highlighted significant differences between men and women across disease severity levels. Conclusions: Sex differences influence the severity of COVID-19. Our results provide a cross-sectional analysis of the impact of body composition on COVID-19 patients, showing risk factors and parameters that can contribute to the treatment, health recovery, and quality of life of this population.
