Hyperglycemia or diabetes mellitus (DM) is a disorder of the endocrine system. In this condition, the body is insulin-deficient or resistant to insulin. Due to insulin deficiency or resistance, the body is unable to process sugar. The worldwide prevalence of diabetes mellitus is rising substantially. Hyperglycemia makes the immune system weak, which increases the risk of infection in a diabetic patient. Fungal infection is more common in DM. Mucormycosis is a rare fungal infection in a healthy individual, but in DM, it can cause severe complications and even be fatal if not treated adequately and timely. In our literature review, a total of 19 published articles from the PubMed database and Google Scholar were included. We combed the PubMed database and Google Scholar by using various inclusion and exclusion criteria. The result of the review study shows the increased risk of mucormycosis in a diabetic patient.
高血糖或糖尿病是一种内分泌系统紊乱疾病。在这种情况下，身体要么胰岛素分泌不足，要么对胰岛素产生抵抗。由于胰岛素缺乏或抵抗，身体无法处理糖分。糖尿病在全球的患病率正在大幅上升。高血糖会使免疫系统变弱，这增加了糖尿病患者感染的风险。真菌感染在糖尿病患者中更为常见。毛霉菌病在健康个体中是一种罕见的真菌感染，但在糖尿病患者中，它会导致严重并发症，如果得不到充分及时的治疗甚至会致命。在我们的文献综述中，共纳入了来自PubMed数据库和谷歌学术的19篇已发表文章。我们使用各种纳入和排除标准对PubMed数据库和谷歌学术进行了梳理。综述研究结果显示糖尿病患者发生毛霉菌病的风险增加。
