Coronavirus disease of 2019(covid-19), Diabetes Mellitus, CT Score, FBS (Fasting Blood Sugar)

Covid-19 infection became a global pandemic, first starting out of Wuhan, China spreading out to entire parts of the world, causing millions of deaths in its wake and is still an ongoing pandemic. The study on Diabetes and COVID-19 is important as management of covid-19 can only be done successfully once diabetes is brought under control. The study deals to determine and categorize the severity of COVID-19 in diabetes and non diabetes patients. It was carried out among 160 COVID-19 patients out of which 74 were diabetic and 86 were non diabetic. Majority of patients were in age above 65 years. Out of 160 infected patients, 58.1% were male and 41.9% were female. Majority of the patients with diabetes mellitus belong to category B (39.2%) and category C (25.7%) whereas majority of non-diabetic patients belong to category A (48.8%). In this study we were able to demonstrate that diabetes is associated with increased risk of greater disease severity and poor short term outcome, which includes death. The prevalence of diabetes in COVID-19 is 46.2%. Different predictors of severity were compared and a positive correlation was obtained between COVID-19 severity and age, FBS, SPO2, D-dimer. Different parameters of severity like CT score, SPO2, N/L ratio, D dimer, CRP and FBS differs significantly between diabetic and nondiabetic groups. SPO2 is significantly decreased in diabetic patients. TLC, CRP, FBS, N/L, CT score were significantly increased in diabetic COVID-19 patients. It was found that diabetes was associated with alterations in different parameters of COVID-19 severity indicating the need for more care in diabetic patients. The severity of covid-19 is found to be more in diabetic patients. The study on Diabetes and covid19 is important as management of COVID-19 can only be done successfully once Diabetes is brought under control.
