Patients with diabetes mellitus are a separate risk group for the consequences of COVID-19, both in the acute and in the long-term period.AIM.

We analyzed the data of the report forms of endocrinological dispensaries for reasons of deaths registered among patients with 2 diabetes mellitus in 2020 and compared these indicators with the data of 2019.RESULTS. In 2020, mortality among patients with diabetes increased 1.5 times compared to 2019 and was 4.3% (compared to 2.8% in 2019). Among the causes of deaths, cardiovascular accidents prevailed: 57,9% in 2020 (48,0% in 2019), cerebrovascular accidents (15,6% in 2020 and 24,2% in 2019), chronic kidney disease (12,0% and 15,1%), gangrene, sepsis (1,2% and 1,8%), the frequency of hyper- and hypoglycemic comas as causes of death was 0.6% both in 2019 and in 2020, however, the absolute number increased in 2020. Among the «other» causes of death (12.8% in 2020 and 10,2% in 2019), COVID-19 itself was 52,3%, pneumonia 17,2%, pulmonary embolism 1%, oncological diseases 12%, liver cirrhosis 12%.CONCLUSIONS. Despite the fact that COVID-19 caused deaths in 6.7% of patients with diabetes, the COVID-19 pandemic caused a significant increase in mortality — 1.5 times — among patients with diabetes, mainly due to acute cardiovascular accidents, stroke, as well as accelerating the progression of chronic complications of diabetes, in particular chronic kidney disease.
