Chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs), global health problem and it is a threat to health and the development of countries. Currently, the number of people with COVID-19 as well as the resulting death toll is rising sharply worldwide. People with underlying diseases may be at greater risk.
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the chronic non-communicable diseases in the epidemic (COVID-19): Investigation of risk factors, control and care.
To access the articles, including international databases Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase were searched using the keywords of chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs), chronic, risk factors, prevention and control, self-efficacy and self-care and their various combinations using AND/OR operators. No language restrictions were applied to the search process.
Based on the evidence, NCDs, exacerbate the negative consequences of COVID-19. according to the results of this study, Among the patients admitted with COVID-19, The most common underlying diseases, were in these people, include, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), smoking, malignancy, chronic kidney disease, and diabetes mellitus. Obesity may be considered as a potential COVID-19 risk factor.
Although lifestyle, nutrition, and medical interventions are important for the early prevention of NCDs, having the tools and resources to use information more effectively is more important One of the determining and effective factors in maintaining health and preventing the aggravation of signs and symptoms of the disease COVID-19, especially in chronic diseases, is to perform self-care behaviors.
慢性非传染性疾病（NCDs）是全球性健康问题，对各国的健康和发展构成威胁。目前，全球范围内 COVID-19 的患者人数和死亡人数正在急剧上升。患有基础疾病的人可能面临更大的风险。
本研究旨在调查疫情中的慢性非传染性疾病（COVID-19）：危险因素、控制和护理调查。
为了获取文章，我们使用慢性非传染性疾病（NCDs）、慢性、危险因素、预防和控制、自我效能和自我护理及其各种组合的关键词，通过 AND/OR 运算符在国际数据库 Scopus、PubMed、Web of Science、Embase 中进行搜索。搜索过程没有语言限制。
基于证据，NCDs 加剧了 COVID-19 的负面后果。根据本研究的结果，在因 COVID-19 住院的患者中，最常见的基础疾病包括心血管疾病、高血压、慢性阻塞性肺疾病（COPD）、吸烟、恶性肿瘤、慢性肾脏病和糖尿病。肥胖可能被认为是 COVID-19 的一个潜在危险因素。
尽管生活方式、营养和医疗干预对于 NCD 的早期预防很重要，但拥有更有效地使用信息的工具和资源更为重要。在慢性疾病中，维护健康和防止 COVID-19 症状恶化的一个决定因素和有效因素是进行自我护理行为。
