ABSTRACT

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the second prevalent organ damage among COVID-19 infected individuals, which mainly affects those with critical diseases or underlying kidney disorders. Emerging data have suggested that AKI is associated with adverse outcomes, severe COVID-19 disease, and high mortality. However, the true nature and pathophysiology of COVID-19-associated kidney injury, and its effect on patients with underlying kidney diseases and transplant recipients, still remains controversial. Accordingly, this review study aimed primarily to describe the history of AKI in COVID-19 infected patients and to achieve a robust understanding of the latest findings on the mechanism of the injury. Secondly, this systematic and precise review of the literature concerning the aspects of AKI in infected patients with chronic kidney disease and transplant recipients provided a comprehensive report of mortality in these individuals. Finally, the present research suggested the possible protective measures that physicians can take to prevent, control, and treat this condition. Our study paves the way for future works with a more robust methodology to better understand COVID-19-related kidney injury.

ABSTRACT

Right now, there is small data on the prevalence of predominant chronic diseases. In addition, it is important for healthcare providers to know the underlying diseases in COVID-19 infected patients. The aim of present systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted on the Prevalence of diabetes, Hypertension and cardiovascular diseases in patients with COVID-19. MEDLINE, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, ISI, google scholar were the electronic databases that used to perform a systematic literature between 2010 to March 2020. Endnote X9 software was used for managing the electronic titles. Searches were performed using these keywords: “COVID-19 OR novel coronavirus OR 2019-nCoV OR Corona Virus Disease”, “diabetes”,” Hypertension”,” cardiovascular disease”. The present systematic review was done based on the main consideration of PRISMA Statement– Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis. The result of the electronic and manual search was a total of 168 potentially relevant titles and abstracts but finally nine studies were included. Meta-analysis reported that 0.19 (95% CI: 0.06-0.13) of SARS-CoV-2 cases were Diabetes. Regarding the I2 index, which was calculated to be 66.9% and the Chi-square test, there was significant heterogeneity between the resources (P=0.01). Hypertensions were the most prevalent underlying diseases in COVID-19 patients. © 2020 Momenzadeh This is an open-access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License.
