Diabetes in COVID-19 patients: challenges and possible management strategies
Abstract Background The recent pandemic of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) has been causing intense stress among the global population. In the case of hospitalized and ICU-admitted COVID-19 patients with comorbidities, it has been observed that a major portion of them are diabetic. Therefore, rese...

In the case of hospitalized and ICU-admitted COVID-19 patients with comorbidities, it has been observed that a major portion of them are diabetic.

Thus, in this study, the correlation existing between diabetic patients and COVID-19 was summarized. Main body of the abstract Diabetic patients have a weaker immune system, less viral clearance rate, malfunctions of metabolic activity due to their high blood glucose level, and other associated problems. This does not increase the susceptibility for the patients to be infected with COVID-19. However, the severity of COVID-19 can worsen due to the comorbidity of DM. Short conclusion Proper management, appropriate use of drugs that do not increase the ACE2 expression, lowering blood glucose level, decreasing the susceptibility of SARS-CoV-2, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle could be effective.Riyan Al Islam ReshadSumaiya Hafiz RianaMohammad Al-baruni ChowdhuryAbu Tayab MoinFaruque MiahBishajit SarkarNurnabi Azad JewelSpringerOpenarticleDiabetes mellitus (DM)COVID-19ACE2Diseases of the respiratory systemRC705-779Medical emergencies.
