Abstract
Purpose: In this article, we report the results of a survey investigating post-coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) syndrome in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and the impacts of vaccination on long-term manifestations. From February 2022 to April 2023, a survey of patients with type 2 diabetes and people without diabetes who were treated for a coronavirus infection was conducted in Kazakhstan.
Methods: Participants were invited via social media to voluntarily participate in this study. A total of 417 surveys were included in this study, comprising 212 patients with type 2 diabetes and 205 without diabetes. We compared persistent complaints after recovery in patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM), as well as vaccination status.
Results: The results of this study on self-reported symptoms of prolonged COVID show that more than half of those infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in Kazakhstan have at least one persistent symptom after recovery. Based on the list of prolonged COVID-19 symptoms reported by patients with type 2 DM (T2DM), exertional dyspnoea, fatigue, respiratory discomfort, headaches, and sleep disturbances are among the most common ongoing conditions, and in many cases last more than 3 months after COVID-19.
Conclusion: Patients with T2DM experience more severe and prolonged symptoms than those without diabetes. Additionally, vaccination lowers COVID-19 hospitalization risk and decreases the need for adjusting hypoglycemic therapy, such as insulin treatment, after recovering from SARS-CoV-2 infection.

The Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism Journal is the official publication of the Korean Society of Pediatric Endocrinology. Its formal abbreviated title is “Ann Pediatr Endocrinol Metab”. It is a peer-reviewed open access journal of medicine published in English. The journal was launched in 1996 under the title of ‘Journal of Korean Society of Pediatric Endocrinology’ until 2011 (pISSN 1226-2242). Since 2012, the title is now changed to ‘Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism’. The Journal is published four times per year on the last day of March, June, September, and December. It is widely distributed for free to members of the Korean Society of Pediatric Endocrinology, medical schools, libraries, and academic institutions. The journal is indexed/tracked/covered by web sites of PubMed Central, PubMed, Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI), Scopus, EBSCO, EMBASE, KoreaMed, KoMCI, KCI, Science Central, DOI/CrossRef, Directory of Open Access Journals(DOAJ), and Google Scholar. The aims of Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism are to contribute to the advancements in the fields of pediatric endocrinology & metabolism through the scientific reviews and interchange of all of pediatric endocrinology and metabolism. It aims to reflect the latest clinical, translational, and basic research trends from worldwide valuable achievements. In addition, genome research, epidemiology, public education and clinical practice guidelines in each country are welcomed for publication. The Journal particularly focuses on research conducted with Asian-Pacific children whose genetic and environmental backgrounds are different from those of the Western. Area of specific interest include the following : Growth, puberty, glucose metabolism including diabetes mellitus, obesity, nutrition, disorders of sexual development, pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal cortex, bone or other endocrine and metabolic disorders from infancy through adolescence.
