Abstract
Purpose of review: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a spike in newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus (NDDM). NDDM and COVID-19 infection are not well established as a cause-and-effect relationship; hence, the present review aims to define the underlying causes and consequences of COVID-19 infection in relation to the condition.
Recent findings: β-Cells are infiltrated by SARS-CoV-2, causing glycometabolic dysfunction and insulin dysregulation. The disease causes systemic inflammation and pro-inflammatory cytokines, as well as hormonal changes that lead to insulin resistance and hyperglycemia that are difficult to manage. As a result of NDDM, complications related to COVID-19 infection become more severe.
Summary: NDDM related to COVID-19 infection complicates hospitalization outcomes and adversely affects quality of life in patients. There are many possible causes and consequences associated with NDDM, but for establishing preventive measures and treatments for NDDM, more evidence regarding its epidemiology, physiopathology, etiology, and nutritional aspects is required.
期刊介绍:
Current Tropical Medicine Reports provides expert views on recent advances in the field of tropical medicine in a clear and readable form. This journal offers reviews by domestic and international contributors that highlight the most important, recent papers and findings related to this specific field. We accomplish this by appointing renowned leaders in major tropical medicine subject areas to select topics addressing virology, bacteriology, parasitology, entomology, immunology, cell and molecular biology, epidemiology, ecology, behavioral science and clinical medicine for review by experts who assess the latest developments and highlight significant papers published over the last few years on their topics. These review articles also stress recently published papers of importance in the references, which are accompanied by annotations explaining their importance. In addition to these Section Editors, our international Editorial Board ensures our journal upholds its standards.
