Open access•Journal Article | Alcohol consumption by diabetics can worsen blood sugar control in those patients. |
9 Citations | Because even severe illness is usually not accompanied by blood sugar elevations, it is probably reasonable to infer that patients whose blood sugar levels are increased when very ill are probably at higher-than-average risk for future diabetes, even if the blood sugar level returns to normal when the il |
| The association was higher in non-diabetics (OR = 1.37, P < 0.001) than in diabetics (OR 1.15, P = 0.001).Blood glucose variability is associated with mortality and is independent of hypoglycemia, disease severity, and comorbidities. | |
30 Citations | Results suggest that compared to non-diagnosed individuals at risk for high blood sugar, diagnosed diabetics respond initially in terms of increasing exercise, losing weight, and curbing smoking and drinking behavior, but the effect diminishes after diagnosis. |
15 Citations | The finding that the association of glycosylated hemoglobin with lipids and lipoproteins extends throughout the normal range of blood sugar suggests that this association may be relevant to both the excess risk of ischemic heart disease in diabetics and in nondiabetics with higher levels of fasting plasma glucose. |
| Our study did not demonstrate an association between blood glucose levels and clinical outcomes in non-diabetic critically ill patients. | |
62 Citations | The conclusion is that there is no broad strong association of psychosocial variables with blood sugar but that there may be subgroups of diabetics, especially adolescents with recent onset, for whom the relationships may be more powerful. |
39 Citations | Patients with type 1 diabetes and insulin-dependent diabetics are more likely to experience this transient rise in blood glucose levels. |
| Patients with diabetes and uncontrolled blood glucose levels are at increased risk for poor clinical outcomes and in-hospital mortality related to COVID-19. | |
| It is concluded that in diabetics the elevated blood sugar per se does not explain the high GFR found in these patients. |

What is the relationship between blood sugar levels and biochemical and hematological factors in patients with COVID-19?5 answersBlood sugar levels in patients with COVID-19 have been found to be associated with various biochemical and hematological factors. Studies have shown that COVID-19 patients with diabetes have higher levels of serum ferritin, CRP, D-dimer, ALT, troponin I, and HbA1c compared to non-diabetic patients. Additionally, COVID-19 patients with diabetes and unknown peaks in the hemoglobin chromatogram have shown poor glycemic control and a significant need for oxygen. Hematological parameters such as anemia, high red-blood-cell-distribution-width (RDW), thrombocytosis, thrombocytopenia, high platelet-distribution-width (PDW), and increased mean-platelet-volume (MPV) have been observed in COVID-19 positive patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Furthermore, fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels have been found to be associated with the risk of death in COVID-19 patients without previously diagnosed diabetes, with a high-stable FBG pattern being an independent risk factor for higher case fatality. These findings suggest that blood sugar levels in COVID-19 patients are closely related to various biochemical and hematological factors, which can impact disease severity and prognosis.
Is diabetes and obesity associated to inflammation in severe covid-19?3 answersDiabetes and obesity are associated with inflammation in severe COVID-19. Inflammatory markers such as CRP, IL-6, and NLR were found to be elevated in COVID-19 patients with diabetes and obesity, and these markers were strongly associated with disease severity and outcomes. Additionally, the presence of metabolic syndrome, which includes diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and/or dyslipidemia, was associated with a higher risk of severe COVID-19, and elevated levels of CXCL10 and IL6 were observed in patients with metabolic syndrome and severe COVID-19. Obesity has also been linked to severe dyspnea in COVID-19 patients. The "obesity paradox" suggests that diabetes patients with obesity may have better outcomes in COVID-19, possibly due to unintentional weight loss and other factors. Overall, these findings highlight the role of inflammation in the association between diabetes, obesity, and severe COVID-19.
How does socioeconomic status affect the incidence of COVID-19 in people with diabetes?5 answersVerificou-se que o status socioeconômico tem um impacto significativo na incidência de COVID-19 em pessoas com diabetes. O status socioeconômico mais baixo está associado a maiores taxas de infecção e mortalidade por COVID-19. Em Santiago, Chile, por exemplo, há uma forte associação entre o status socioeconômico e os resultados da COVID-19 e a capacidade de saúde pública, com pessoas que vivem em municípios de baixa renda apresentando taxas de mortalidade mais altas. Além disso, indivíduos com status socioeconômico mais baixo podem ter acesso reduzido aos recursos de saúde, incluindo testes e intervenções oportunas, levando a maiores taxas de infecção e piores resultados. Essas descobertas destacam as consequências críticas das desigualdades socioeconômicas nos resultados de saúde durante a pandemia de COVID-19, particularmente para indivíduos com diabetes.
