Elevated HbA1c levels in pre-Covid-19 infection increases the risk of mortality: A sistematic review and meta-analysis

Francesco Prattichizzo et al.

Summary: This meta-analysis aimed to explore the impact of HbA1c values at hospital pre-admission or at-admission on COVID-19 mortality or worsening in patients with diabetes. The results from seven observational studies showed that HbA1c was linearly associated with increased risk of COVID-19 mortality or worsening, especially in patients with poor glycaemic control.

Haemoglobin A1c is a predictor of COVID-19 severity in patients with diabetes

Eugene Merzon et al.

Summary: The study found an association between pre-infection HbA1c levels and COVID-19 severity in diabetic patients, with higher HbA1c levels indicating a greater risk of hospitalization. The importance of pre-infection risk stratification for successful disease management, resource allocation, and reducing economic and social burden was emphasized.

Metformin Use Is Associated With Reduced Mortality in a Diverse Population With COVID-19 and Diabetes

Andrew B. Crouse et al.

Summary: The study found that Black/African-Americans, obesity, hypertension, and diabetes were associated with higher likelihood of contracting COVID-19. Diabetes was also linked to a dramatic increase in COVID-19-related mortality, but the use of metformin showed a significant reduction in mortality for diabetic individuals with COVID-19.

Summary: Observational studies indicate that outpatient metformin use may reduce mortality from COVID-19, but the impact on hospitalization rates remains uncertain.

Risks of and risk factors for COVID-19 disease in people with diabetes: a cohort study of the total population of Scotland

Stuart J. McGurnaghan et al.

Summary: The study aimed to compare the risk of fatal or critical care unit-treated COVID-19 between people with and without diabetes, and developed a predictive model. Results showed that people with diabetes had a higher risk of developing the disease, with several related factors, and the predictive model demonstrated good accuracy.

Summary: The study revealed that in a local medical center in Northern California, Latino patients were more likely than White patients to receive SARS-CoV-2 testing, be hospitalized, and die from COVID-19. Racial and ethnic disparities varied depending on the local context.

Anna R. Kahkoska et al.

Summary: The study found that the use of GLP1-RA and SGLT2i medications in SARS-CoV-2-positive adults was associated with lower odds of mortality and other adverse outcomes compared to DPP4i users, who were generally older and sicker.

Both high and low pre-infection glucose levels associated with increased risk for severe COVID-19: New insights from a population-based study

Michal Shauly-Aharonov et al.

Summary: This study indicates that elevated pre-infection blood glucose is a risk factor for severe COVID-19, even in non-diabetic individuals. For patients with diabetes, both high and low pre-infection glucose levels are risk factors for severe COVID-19. Further research is needed to determine if these associations are causal, but these findings can already have clinical implications for COVID-19 risk assessment and stratification.

Clinical Characterization and Prediction of Clinical Severity of SARS-CoV-2 Infection Among US Adults Using Data From the US National COVID Cohort Collaborative

Tellen D. Bennett et al.

Summary: The study evaluated COVID-19 severity and risk factors in over 1.9 million US adults, finding that machine learning models can accurately predict clinical severity. It also observed a decrease in COVID-19 mortality over time in 2020 and identified associations between patient demographic characteristics and comorbidities with higher clinical severity.

Unusually High Risks of COVID-19 Mortality with Age-Related Comorbidities: An Adjusted Meta-Analysis Method to Improve the Risk Assessment of Mortality Using the Comorbid Mortality Data

Andrew Antos et al.

Summary: This study re-evaluated mortality data from the US related to COVID-19, incorporating a control group without comorbidity to estimate odds ratios of death by major comorbidities. The results showed that having at least one comorbidity increased the risk of mortality 1113 times higher than having no comorbidity, with hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease being the top four comorbidities associated with significantly higher odds ratios.

The dynamics of inflammatory markers in coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Roshan Kumar Mahat et al.

Summary: This paper conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis on the association of inflammatory parameters with severity and mortality in COVID-19 patients. The results showed significant differences in levels of certain inflammatory parameters between severe and non-severe COVID-19 patients, as well as between non-survivor and survivor groups.

Summary: N3C is an open science community focused on analyzing patient-level data from multiple centers to address the challenges posed by COVID-19. By overcoming technical, regulatory, policy, and governance barriers, N3C has successfully established a secure data enclave for efficient, transparent, and reproducible collaborative analytics.

COVID-19 and diabetes mellitus: from pathophysiology to clinical management

Soo Lim et al.

Summary: Initial studies have shown that patients with diabetes mellitus have a higher risk of severe COVID-19, potentially due to hyperglycaemia affecting immune and inflammatory responses. Further investigation is needed to determine the optimal management for patients with diabetes mellitus during the ongoing pandemic.
