INTRODUCTION COVID-19 is a debilitating disorder affecting lungs with multiple organs. Diabetes mellitus is considered as a common co-mor- bidity whose impact has not been fully understood. There is a hypothesis that patients with diabetes are at increased risk of severe disease or death due to COVID-19. The main objective of the present study was to find the the association of COVID-19 diabetes mellitus (DM) and non-diabetes mellitus patients with the clinical outcomes. MATERIAL AND METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 at Universal College of Medical Sciences (UCMS), Bhairahawa. Total of 200 patients were enrolled in the study period from July 2021 to January 2022 whose clinical profile, socio-demographic and biochemical variables were assessed. The study variables taken were symptoms, random blood glucose (RBG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and their outcomes like High Dependency Unit/Intensive Care Unit (HDU/I- CU) or COVID ward...

Impact of Diabetes Mellitus on Clinical Profile and Outcome of COVID-19 Patients in a Tertiary Care HospitalObjective: A novel coronavirus infection (SARS-CoV-2) pneumonia (COVID-19) has been quickly spreading throughout China and the rest of the world since December 2019. Respiratory tract infections are frequently linked to diabetes mellitus (DM), a different risk factor. This study has reported the clinical presentation and therapeutic outcomes of COVID-19 with diabetes. Methods: From medical records and histories provided by 72 Covid-19-infected patients with diabetes admitted to the KMCH institute of health sciences and research, Coimbatore, data on demographics, clinical, laboratory, and radiological characteristics as well as treatment outcomes were collected using data collection forms. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay of 2019-CoV RNA was used to screen patients with Covid-19. Results: 72 diabetes patients who tested positive for Covid-19 were admitted for this study. SPSS software version 26 was used to evaluate the data that had been colle...

Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common comorbidities in patients with COVID-19 and is associated with poor outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the association of diabetes mellitus with other risk factors in the severity and mortality of COVID-19 patients.Method: This retrospective study identified adult patients with COVID-19 admitted to Bali Jimbaran Hospital (Indonesia) from July 02, 2020, to May 04, 2021. The risk of severity and mortality were compared between COVID-19 patients with diabetes and without any comorbidities who were of the same sex and age. The other risk factors were explored in subgroup of patients with diabetes using logistic regression analysis.Results:The diabetes group had a significantly increased risk of COVID-19 severity (p <0.001) and mortality (p =0.026). The logistic regression analysis showed that significantly increase COVID-19 patients’ severity and mortality in diabetic patients with hypertension and D-dimer ≥1000 ng/mL (p < 0.05). ...

To Determine the Effect of Diabetes Mellitus on the Clinical Course and Outcome of COVID-19 at Jinnah Hospital, LahoreBackground: Diabetes is a common disease known to cause morbidity and mortality. Individuals with diabetes are at greater risk of complications from coronavirus and have recently gains attention of researchers and practitioners. Aim: To assess the effect of diabetes mellitus on clinical course and outcome of coronavirus infection. Study design: Prospective cohort study Place and duration of study: Coronavirus Disease High Dependency Unit Jinnah Hospital, Lahore from 01-01-2021 to03-04-2021. Methodology: Three hundred and seventy six patients of either genders and age range of 15-75 years were enrolled. They were divided into diabetic or non-diabetic groups. The various attributes such as demographic data, medical history, COVID-19 exposure history, symptoms and signs, laboratory findings, chest radiograph findings, the treatment measures and complications of diabetes and in hospital outcome were compared for both the groups. Result: Statistically different from each other in terms o...

DIABETES MELLITUS IN COVID-19; A HOSPITAL-BASED LONGITUDINAL ANALYTICAL STUDYObjectives: The aim of the study was (1) to assess and compare the profile of COVID-19 patients with diabetes and without diabetes and (2) to determine the outcome of COVID-19 patients with diabetes mellitus. Methods: A hospital-based longitudinal analytical study was conducted on a total of 2000 patients in Bengaluru during the study period from August 2020 to July 2021. The patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria were enrolled for the study after obtaining informed consent. Patients were divided into diabetic and non-diabetic groups and inflammatory markers were compared between these two groups and outcome of these patients was noted. Results: Of the 2000 COVID-19 patients included, 358 were diabetics in this study. Mean age of non-diabetic patients was 41.71 (±15.37) years and diabetic patients were 54.37 (±11.95) years. The inflammatory markers such as Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH), Ferritin, C-Reactive Protein (CRP), and Neutrophil-Lymphocyte ratio (NLR) were significantly high in patients with diabetes compared to the non-diabetic patients with COVID-19 (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study shows that diabetes is a major risk factor and contributes to the severity and mortality of patients with COVID-19. Our recommendations are for the strict glycemic control in patients affected by COVID-19 during treatment for the same.

Risk indicators associated with in-hospital mortality and severity in patients with diabetes mellitus and confirmed or clinically suspected COVID-192022 •
AimTo determine association between diabetes in confirmed cases of COVID-19 and intensive care admission and in-hospital mortality, evaluate several laboratory parameters as mortality predictor, and develop predictors of in-hospital mortality among diabetics with COVID-19.MethodsThis retrospective cohort recruited all cases of COVID-19 hospitalized in Fatmawati General Hospital during March to October 2020. Inclusion criteria was RT-PCR confirmed cases of COVID-19 who aged 18 years and older while exclusion criteria were incomplete medical record or cannot be found and pregnant women.ResultsWe enrolled 506 participants to this study with median age of 51 years (IQR:22), female (56.32%), and diabetes (28.46%). Diabetes increased intensive care admission (adjusted OR:6.07;95%CI:3.52-10,43) and in-hospital mortality (adjusted OR:50;95%CI:1.61-3.89). In predicting in-hospital mortality, ferritin and lactate dehydrogenase offered an acceptable discrimination, AUC:0.71 (95%CI: 0.62-0.79) ...

Background: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) whose pandemic was declared on March 11 2021 (1). Spectrum of COVID-19 clinical manifestations is very wide. Most patients report to ambulance with mild or moderate symptoms, but some of them rapidly develops acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), respiratory failure, acute cardiac injury, multiple organ failure and death (2). Older age, diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease are reported as high predictors of morbidity and mortality. Aim: To determine correlation between diabetes mellitus and severity of clinical picture in patients with COVID-19. Methods: Current study involve retrospective analysis of 1513 patients with Real Time PCR confirmed COVID-19 hospitalized in Clinic for infectious disease, University Clinical Center, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, in a period of June 2020 to December 2020. Results: Among them 417 had previously diagnosed of di...

Diabetes is associated with higher mortality and severity in hospitalized patients with COVID-192021 •
As a novel cause of pneumonia, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has rapidly progressed worldwide. Previous studies have indicated COVID-19 patients with diabetes show higher mortality rates and more severe COVID-19 infection with an increased requirement for intensive care and hospital length of stay (LOS) compared to non-diabetic patients. The present study aimed to investigate the association of diabetes and COVID-19 outcome with severity of disease in hospitalized patients. The present case-control study included 268 patients diagnosed with COVID-19 who were hospitalized in Ayatollah Khoyi Hospital, Khoy, Iran. Diabetes was identified based on medical history and/or criteria of published documents. Out of 268 patients (median age of 59 years; 53.4 % male), 127 patients had diabetes (47 %). Diabetic patients had remarkably higher mortality rates (adjusted odds ratio, aOR: 3.36; confidence interval, CI: 1.17-9.66), requirement for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) (aOR: 4.59...
