Coronavirus disease 2019 infection is associated with poor glycemic control. This study's objectives were to determine the effect of hyperglycemia on the prognosis and outcome of COVID-19 patients and to detect whether COVID-19 infection can induce new-onset diabetes. Patients and Methods This cohort study was carried out on 240 hospitalized Egyptian COVID-19 patients, at Zagazig University Hospital isolation intensive care unit, between March 2020 and March 2021. They compared patients with diabetes and uncontrolled hyperglycemia against each other and COVID-19 patients without diabetes or uncontrolled hyperglycemia. Baseline demographic data, clinical features, and laboratory analysis were collected. Clinical outcome was evaluated via hospital stay and survival rate. Patients with uncontrolled hyperglycemia and nondiabetic patients were followed up 1 year after the hospital discharge to detect the development of new-onset diabetes. Result The diabetic group had the highest creatinine level, and the nondiabetic group had a minor C-reactive protein and D-dimer. The difference is significant between diabetic and nondiabetic groups concerning hospital stay. The nondiabetic group had the shortest hospital stay. There is a statistically substantial relationship between mortality and the glycosylated hemoglobin, serum creatinine, C-reactive protein, D-dimer, and serum ferritin. A total of 46.6% of survivors in the uncontrolled hyperglycemic group and 3.4% in the nondiabetic group developed diabetes mellitus during follow-up. There is a statistically significant relationship between new-onset diabetes mellitus and D-dimer. Conclusions Coronavirus disease 2019 can induce diabetes mellitus in vulnerable patients (presented with uncontrolled hyperglycemia at admission). In addition, COVID-19 patients with diabetes or uncontrolled hyperglycemia have worse outcomes and poor prognoses.","PeriodicalId":13952,"journal":{"name":"Infectious Diseases in Clinical Practice","volume":"170 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136112525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The presence of cancer, in addition to several anticancer treatments, can further elevate the risk of VTE. The following case reports describe an increased risk of extensive thrombosis that can be seen with COVID-19 infection in cancer patients. We report 3 cases of pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis in cancer patients with COVID-19 infection. All 3 cases are unique with the timeline of COVID-19 infection and diagnosis of VTE. The current pandemic has alerted the clinician to the potential increased risk for thrombus formation in cancer patients with COVID-19, even days to months after acute infection.","PeriodicalId":13952,"journal":{"name":"Infectious Diseases in Clinical Practice","volume":"227 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136112539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we examined the role of NmAbs therapies in a cohort of patients affected by nosocomial COVID-19 infection and high risk of illness progression. Methods A retrospective, single-center analysis was performed including all patients affected by nosocomial SARS-CoV-2 infection receiving NmAbs treatment between April 2021 and March 2022. Results The overall included patients were 75. Mortality rate was 13.3%; disease progression was observed in 22 patients (29.3%); clinical improvement was reported in 49 subjects (65.3%). In multivariate logistic regression, the presence of immunosuppression risk factor and late administration of therapies were recognized as independent predictors of treatment failure. Conclusions In this real-world analysis, the treatment with NmAbs was safety and effectiveness in high-risk patients with nosocomial COVID-19 infection, but the timing of administration and the role of viral variants are the main limiting factors of this approach.","PeriodicalId":13952,"journal":{"name":"Infectious Diseases in Clinical Practice","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134945450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
