Diabetes y COVID-19, una relación de ida y vuelta / Diabetes and COVID-19, one relation to go and comeback

ABSTRACT

Diabetic patients are at risk of developing unfavorably from SARS-COV19 disease, especially when they have poor glycemic control. On the other hand, in the case of diabetic patients with severe COVID, they evolve with severe hyperglycemia, often difficult to manage. Marked hyperglycemia has also been described in people without a known history of previous diabetes, even there have been reported cases of insulin-dependent diabetes debut in days after the disease. The aim of this review is to analyze possible mechanisms involved in the relationship between COVID-19 and DIABETES.
