Fasting Blood Glucose Linked to Mortality Outcomes in Patients With COVID-19
Researchers assessed the relationship between fasting blood glucose levels and the risk of mortality in patients hospitalized with COVID-19.
Endocrinology
Odds of COVID-19 Mortality Lower for Women Receiving HRT
Hormone replacement therapy use is associated with reduced odds of all-cause mortality among women with a recorded diagnosis of COVID-19.
Effects of Androgen Suppression With Degarelix on Hospitalized Men With COVID-19
Investigators assessed the effects of androgen suppression therapy with degarelix on clinical outcomes among older men hospitalized with COVID-19 infection.
Veterans With High Blood Glucose, Insulin Use, Risk COVID-19 Complications
People with diabetes are at a higher risk of experiencing poor outcomes after contracting COVID-19, including hospitalization and death. Researchers expanded on a previous analysis to identify risk factors for short-term adverse outcomes among veterans with diabetes and COVID-19.
Metformin and Sulfonylurea Use in People With Type 2 Diabetes and COVID-19
COVID-19 can cause additional complications and even death in people with a pre-existing conditions like type 2 diabetes. Researchers studied whether the medications people with type 2 diabetes often take were associated with a risk of dying from the virus.
Risk for Hypertriglyceridemia in Patients With HIV Infection Treated With Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitor-Based Antiretroviral Therapy
Researchers conducted a study to determine whether integrase strand transfer inhibitor-based antiretroviral therapy is associated with lipid changes in patients with HIV infection.
Diabetes Drug Class May Affect COVID-19 Outcomes
Researchers sought to identify which medications for type 2 diabetes may be associated with severity of COVID-19.
Hyperglycemia, Hypoglycemia Linked to Poor Outcomes in COVID-19
Admission-blood glucose is strong predictor of death among patients admitted directly to the intensive care unit.
Admission Hyperglycemia Predicts Mortality in COVID-19
Patients with hyperglycemia and COVID-19 had higher cumulative probability of mortality.
Statin Use in Hospitalized DM Patients With COVID-19 Associated with Lower Mortality
Study authors assess the association between statin therapy and in-hospital mortality in patients with COVID-19 and concomitant diabetes mellitus.
