Diabetes mellitus (DM) has been associated with higher incidence of severe cases of COVID-19 in hospitalized patients, but it is unknown whether DM is a risk factor for the overall COVID-19 incidence. The aim of present study was to investigate whether there is an association of DM with COVID-19 prevalence and case fatality, and between different DM medications and risk for COVID-19 infection and death.
retrospective observational study on all SARS-CoV-2 positive (SARS-CoV-2) cases and deaths in Sicily up to 2020, May 14th. No difference in COVID-19 prevalence was found between people with and without DM (RR 0.92 [0.79-1.09]). Case fatality was significantly higher in SARS-CoV-2 with DM (RR 4.5 [3.55-5.71]). No diabetes medication was associated with differences in risk for SARS-Cov2 infection.
in Sicily, DM was not a risk factor for COVID-19 infection, whereas it was associated with a higher case fatality.
糖尿病(DM)与住院患者中 COVID-19 重症病例的发生率增加有关,但 DM 是否是 COVID-19 总发病率的危险因素尚不清楚。本研究旨在探讨 DM 是否与 COVID-19 患病率和病死率有关,以及不同的 DM 药物与 COVID-19 感染和死亡的风险之间是否存在关联。
这是一项针对西西里岛截至 2020 年 5 月 14 日所有 SARS-CoV-2 阳性(SARS-CoV-2)病例和死亡的回顾性观察性研究。患有和不患有 DM 的人 COVID-19 患病率没有差异(RR 0.92 [0.79-1.09])。SARS-CoV-2 合并 DM 的病死率显著更高(RR 4.5 [3.55-5.71])。没有糖尿病药物与 SARS-Cov2 感染的风险差异相关。
在西西里岛,DM 不是 COVID-19 感染的危险因素,而是与更高的病死率相关。
