Chronic dysglycemia and risk of SARS-CoV-2 associated respiratory failure in hospitalized patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Diabetes is common among patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-induced respiratory failure. We aimed to investigate the relationship between different stages of chronic dysglycemia and development of respiratory failure in hospitalized SARS-CoV-2 positive patients.

Methods

In this retrospective observational study, we included 385 hospitalized SARS-CoV-2 positive patients at Karolinska University Hospital, Sweden with an HbA1c test obtained within 3 months before admission. Based on HbA1c level and previous diabetes history, we classified patients into the following dysglycemia categories: prediabetes, unknown diabetes, controlled diabetes, or uncontrolled diabetes. We used multivariable logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, and body mass index, to assess the association between dysglycemia categories and development of SARS-CoV-2-induced respiratory failure.

Results

Of the 385 study patients, 88 (22.9%) had prediabetes, 68 (17.7%) had unknown diabetes, 36 (9.4%) had controlled diabetes, and 83 (21.6%) had uncontrolled diabetes. Overall, 299 (77.7%) patients were admitted with or developed SARS-CoV-2-induced respiratory failure during hospitalization. In multivariable logistic regression analysis compared with no chronic dysglycemia, prediabetes (OR 14.41, 95% CI 5.27-39.43), unknown diabetes (OR 15.86, 95% CI 4.55-55.36), and uncontrolled diabetes (OR 17.61, 95% CI 5.77-53.74) was independently associated with increased risk of SARS-CoV-2-induced respiratory failure.

Conclusion

In our cohort of hospitalized SARS-CoV-2 positive patients with available HbA1c data, prediabetes, undiagnosed diabetes, and poorly controlled diabetes were associated with a markedly increased risk of SARS-CoV-2-associated respiratory failure.

Project description:BackgroundThere is an increased attention to stroke following SARS-CoV-2. The goal of this study was to better depict the short-term risk of stroke and its associated factors among SARS-CoV-2 hospitalized patients.MethodsThis multicentre, multinational observational study includes hospitalized SARS-CoV-2 patients from North and South America (United States, Canada, and Brazil), Europe (Greece, Italy, Finland, and Turkey), Asia (Lebanon, Iran, and India), and Oceania (New Zealand). The outcome was the risk of subsequent stroke. Centres were included by non-probability sampling. The counts and clinical characteristics including laboratory findings and imaging of the patients with and without a subsequent stroke were recorded according to a predefined protocol. Quality, risk of bias, and heterogeneity assessments were conducted according to ROBINS-E and Cochrane Q-test. The risk of subsequent stroke was estimated through meta-analyses with random effect models. Bivariate logistic regression was used to determine the parameters with predictive outcome value. The study was reported according to the STROBE, MOOSE, and EQUATOR guidelines.FindingsWe received data from 26,175 hospitalized SARS-CoV-2 patients from 99 tertiary centres in 65 regions of 11 countries until May 1st, 2020. A total of 17,799 patients were included in meta-analyses. Among them, 156(0.9%) patients had a stroke-123(79%) ischaemic stroke, 27(17%) intracerebral/subarachnoid hemorrhage, and 6(4%) cerebral sinus thrombosis. Subsequent stroke risks calculated with meta-analyses, under low to moderate heterogeneity, were 0.5% among all centres in all countries, and 0.7% among countries with higher health expenditures. The need for mechanical ventilation (OR: 1.9, 95% CI:1.1-3.5, p = 0.03) and the presence of ischaemic heart disease (OR: 2.5, 95% CI:1.4-4.7, p = 0.006) were predictive of stroke.InterpretationThe results of this multi-national study on hospitalized patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection indicated an overall stroke risk of 0.5%(pooled risk: 0.9%). The need for mechanical ventilation and the history of ischaemic heart disease are the independent predictors of stroke among SARS-CoV-2 patients.FundingNone.

Project description:ObjectivesWe aimed to develop and validate a risk score to predict severe respiratory failure (SRF) among patients hospitalized with coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19).MethodsWe performed a multicentre cohort study among hospitalized (>24 hours) patients diagnosed with COVID-19 from 22 February to 3 April 2020, at 11 Italian hospitals. Patients were divided into derivation and validation cohorts according to random sorting of hospitals. SRF was assessed from admission to hospital discharge and was defined as: Spo2 <93% with 100% Fio2, respiratory rate >30 breaths/min or respiratory distress. Multivariable logistic regression models were built to identify predictors of SRF, β-coefficients were used to develop a risk score. Trial Registration NCT04316949.ResultsWe analysed 1113 patients (644 derivation, 469 validation cohort). Mean (±SD) age was 65.7 (±15) years, 704 (63.3%) were male. SRF occurred in 189/644 (29%) and 187/469 (40%) patients in the derivation and validation cohorts, respectively. At multivariate analysis, risk factors for SRF in the derivation cohort assessed at hospitalization were age ≥70 years (OR 2.74; 95% CI 1.66-4.50), obesity (OR 4.62; 95% CI 2.78-7.70), body temperature ≥38°C (OR 1.73; 95% CI 1.30-2.29), respiratory rate ≥22 breaths/min (OR 3.75; 95% CI 2.01-7.01), lymphocytes ≤900 cells/mm3 (OR 2.69; 95% CI 1.60-4.51), creatinine ≥1 mg/dL (OR 2.38; 95% CI 1.59-3.56), C-reactive protein ≥10 mg/dL (OR 5.91; 95% CI 4.88-7.17) and lactate dehydrogenase ≥350 IU/L (OR 2.39; 95% CI 1.11-5.11). Assigning points to each variable, an individual risk score (PREDI-CO score) was obtained. Area under the receiver-operator curve was 0.89 (0.86-0.92). At a score of >3, sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values were 71.6% (65%-79%), 89.1% (86%-92%), 74% (67%-80%) and 89% (85%-91%), respectively. PREDI-CO score showed similar prognostic ability in the validation cohort: area under the receiver-operator curve 0.85 (0.81-0.88). At a score of >3, sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values were 80% (73%-85%), 76% (70%-81%), 69% (60%-74%) and 85% (80%-89%), respectively.ConclusionPREDI-CO score can be useful to allocate resources and prioritize treatments during the COVID-19 pandemic.
