At the end of 2019, a new disease with pandemic potential appeared in China. It was a novel coronavirus called coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Later, in the first quarter of 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of this disease a pandemic. Elderly people, people with comorbidities, and health care professionals are more vulnerable to COVID-19. Obesity has been growing exponentially worldwide, affecting several age groups. It is a morbidity that is associated with genetic, epigenetic, environment factors and/or interaction between them. Obesity is associated with the development of several diseases including diabetes mellitus, mainly type 2. Diabetes affects a significant portion of the global population. Obesity and diabetes are among the main risk factors for the development of severe symptoms of COVID-19, and individuals with these conditions constitute a risk group. Based on a literature review on obesity in people with diabetes in the framework of the COVID-19 pandemic, this study presents updated important considerations and care to be taken with this population.
2019年底,一种具有大流行潜力的新疾病在中国出现。它是一种名为2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的新型冠状病毒。后来,在2020年第一季度,世界卫生组织宣布这种疾病的爆发为大流行。老年人、患有合并症的人以及医护人员更容易感染COVID-19。肥胖在全球呈指数级增长,影响多个年龄组。它是一种与遗传、表观遗传、环境因素和/或它们之间的相互作用相关的发病率。肥胖与包括糖尿病(主要是2型糖尿病)在内的几种疾病的发生有关。糖尿病影响着全球很大一部分人口。肥胖和糖尿病是COVID-19出现严重症状的主要危险因素之一,患有这些疾病的个体构成一个风险群体。基于对COVID-19大流行背景下糖尿病患者肥胖问题的文献综述,本研究提出了针对这一人群的最新重要注意事项和护理措施。
