PROTOCOL: New-Onset Diabetes Mellitus Post COVID-19 Infection: A Protocol for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Emerging evidence suggests that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection may cause diabetes mellitus in patients without a prior history of the condition.

Objective

This review aims to determine the incidence of new-onset diabetes mellitus in COVID-19 patients compared to individuals without COVID-19, including rates of diabetic ketoacidosis, hyperglycaemia, mortality, and intensive care unit admission. Subgroup analyses will investigate patients receiving corticosteroid therapy for COVID-19, patients admitted to hospital due to COVID-19, and the incidence of new-onset diabetes mellitus in relation to diabetes mellitus worldwide. The incidence of new-onset diabetes mellitus post-infection after a 6-12-month follow-up will also be reported.
