Introduction : Malignant pheochromocytomas are rare tumors which carry a poor prognosis and their clinical presentation is variable. Malignancy is defined by the presence of local invasion and/or metastases. In this report, we describe three cases of large malignant pheochromocytomas. Cases Presentation : The three cases have presented abdominal masses. Two patients complained of hypochondrium pain, and the third one was asymptomatic. One of the patients experienced sweating for 2 years, while the two others had no symptoms suggesting the hyper secretion of catecholamines. Urinalysis revealed elevation of daily urinary excretion of catecholamine metabolites in two cases and the computed tomography (CT) revealed large adrenal masses in the three cases. The malignancy was confirmed by the presence of multiple liver, lung and bone metastases. Surgery was performed in one case, but the tumor resection was impossible because the mass was adherent to great vessels. Calcitonin, intact parathormone (PTH) and calcium were normal in the 3 cases, which ruled out multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2. Otherwise, there was no sign suggesting phacomatosis. Two patients died before starting therapy, while in the third case the treatment considered was surgery and chemotherapy regimen of cyclophosphamide, dacarbazine and vincristine (CVD). Follow-up, showed a progression of tumor size with no significant improvement of metastatic disease. Conclusion : Malignant pheochromocytomas are particularly rare and aggressive tumors. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment of malignant pheochromocytomas, their management is still a real dilemma, especially in our context because of the lack of diagnostic tools such as genetic analysis and the cost of therapy.

Introduction L’apoplexie hypophysaire est une hemorragie survenant dans un adenome hypophysaire. C’est une complication rare mais grave. Le tableau clinique associe classiquement des cephalees brutales, des troubles de conscience, des signes endocriniens et des troubles visuels. Observation Nous rapportons l’observation d’un patient âge de 72 ans, sans antecedents pathologiques particuliers qui a presente de facon brutale une chute de la paupiere gauche sans syndrome tumoral, sans deficit sensitivo-moteur associe a une asthenie s’aggravant en fin de journee, sans signes en faveur d’hypersecretion hypophysaire. L’examen avait note une paralysie totale du nerf oculomoteur gauche. L’IRM cerebrale a objective un macroadenome hypophysaire sellaire et laterosellaire ayant saigne. L’hypophysiogramme a montre une insuffisance thyreotrope et corticotrope. Le patient a beneficie d’une exerese de la tumeur par voie transphenoidale, L’evolution etait favorable, marquee par la regression du ptosis apres reeducation orthoptique. L’etude anatomopatholigique a objective un macroadenome hypophysaire non secretant. Discussion L’apoplexie hypophysaire est une urgence endocrinienne. Un diagnostic rapide et une prise en charge adaptee permettre de soulager le patient et de limiter la survenue de complications irreversibles. A travers cette observation, on rapporte un cas d’apoplexie d’un adenome hypophysaire, dont le tableau clinique est tronque ce qui aurait pu entrainer un retard diagnostique et therapeutique.

Introduction Le lithium induit une hyperparathyroidie par diminution de l’effet inhibiteur du calcium sur la production de la parathormone. Les patients suivis pour un trouble bipolaire et traites par les sels de lithium sont susceptibles presenter des hyperparathyroidies. Par ailleurs, les manifestations psychiques de l’hypercalcemie peuvent etre considerees a tort comme un desequilibre de la maladie bipolaire sous-jacente et etre a l’origine d’un retard diagnostique. Observation Nous rapportons l’observation d’une patiente âgee de 68 ans, suivie pour un trouble bipolaire sous carbonate de lithium depuis 24 ans. Admise dans un tableau de deshydratation, d’hallucinations avec insomnie et sub-agitation, associe a un pic hypertensif a 260/120 mmHg. Le bilan biologique a montre une hypercalcemie a 127 mg/L ainsi qu’une hyperparathyroidie a 380 pg/mL. L’exploration morphologique a montre un nodule parathyroidien inferieur droit. Apres traitement symptomatique de l’hypercalcemie, une chirurgie d’exerese a ete realisee. L’evolution clinique a ete favorable avec regression des symptomes psychiatriques, et obtention d’une normocalcemie. L’etude anatomopathologique a confirme la nature adenomateuse du nodule parathyroidien. Discussion A travers cette observation nous soulignons l’importance de la surveillance rapprochee de la calcemie chez les patients sous lithium, afin de depister l’hyperparathyroidie et d’instaurer une prise en charge precoce avant le stade de complications.

Introduction et but de l’etude La maigreur constitutionnelle est definie comme etant un etat non pathologique d’insuffisance ponderale. A la difference de l’anorexie mentale, la maigreur constitutionnelle se caracterise d’une part par l’absence de trouble du comportement alimentaire, et ne repond donc pas aux criteres DSM IV de cette pathologie, et d’autre part par l’absence de desordres hormonaux et metaboliques. Le mecanisme a l’origine de l’insuffisance ponderale dans la maigreur constitutionnelle est encore meconnu. Le caractere familial ou hereditaire de cette maigreur a ete decrit. Les auteurs suggerent l’association de facteurs genetiques et de mecanismes physiopathologiques non encore elucides. L’objectif de notre etude est de determiner le profil anthropometrique et nutritionnel des patients en maigreur constitutionnelle, ainsi que l’evolution ponderale sous traitement. Materiel et methodes Nous avons mene une etude prospective transversale, durant la periode allant de Decembre 2012 a Avril 2013. 15 patients en maigreur constitutionnelle ont ete recrutes, selon les criteres suivants :l’IMC est Les donnees suivantes ont ete recueillies : – Les parametres anthropometriques des patients a savoir, le poids, la taille, l’IMC avec calcul du deficit ponderal, par rapport au poids ideal, calcule selon la formule de Lorentz (Taille (cm) – 100 – [Taille (cm) – 150] / a a = 2,5 chez la femme a = 4 chez l’homme). – La ration calorique journaliere des patients, calculee a partir des donnees de l’enquete alimentaire, basee sur le rappel des 24 h, ainsi qu’une analyse qualitative des apports nutritionnels avec precision des rations protidiques, glucidiques et lipidiques. – La composition de la masse corporelle appreciee par impedance bioelectrique. – La prise en charge a consiste en une supplementation calorique, et en complements nutritionnels oraux. – L’evolution ponderale a 4 semaines, a ete evaluee. Resultats et Analyse statistique Nous avons recrute 15 patients ayant une maigreur constitutionnelle. La moyenne d’âge des patients est de 22,5 ans (± 4,8), avec une predominance feminine avec un sexe ratio H/F de 0,2. Aucun patient n’avait d’antecedents medicaux notables. L’etude des parametres anthropometriques montre que le poids des patients est de 45,97 kg (± 9,72 kg), l’IMC est de 16,49kg/m2 (± 1,32).Le deficit ponderal calcule par rapport au poids ideal est de 14,01 kg (± 5,65). L’enquete alimentaire montre une ration calorique journaliere de 1510kcal (±403,5), avec une repartition adequate en macronutriments : 31,4 % de lipides, 54,5 % de glucides et 15,8 % de proteines. L’etude de la composition corporelle par impedancemetrie bioelectrique montre un taux de masse maigre de 41,22 %(± 6,6). Le taux de masse grasse, est de 18,34 %(± 4,35). Le poids a 4 semaines du traitement est de 47,67kg/m2 soit une prise de poids de 1,70 kg (± 0,44). Conclusion La maigreur constitutionnelle represente une entite non pathologique encore mal connue, nos resultats montrent que sa prise en charge reste difficile du fait de la resistance a la prise du poids souvent rapporte par les patients. D’autres etudes sont necessaires pour determiner les mecanismes physiopathologiques responsables de ce phenotype, et ce, afin de pouvoir repondre a la demande de ces patients, souhaitant prendre du poids.

Introduction et but de l’etude Le comportement alimentaire est influence par des facteurs socio-culturels et geographiques. La palmeraie d’Aoufouss se situe dans la province d’Errachidia au sud du Maroc et s’etend sur une superficie de 3 253 ha, connue par sa richesse en palmiers dattiers. Sa population comptent 1 272 habitants et 269 menages. Le but de ce travail est de determiner le profil nutritionnel des habitants de la commune rurale d’Aoufous, connue par sa richesse en palmiers dattiers. Materiel et methodes Il s’agit d’une etude prospective concernant 50 patients ayant consulte lors d’une campagne sanitaire organisee en avril 2013 au profit des habitants du village d’Aoufous. Chaque patient a beneficie d’une mesure des parametres anthropometriques : poids, taille, IMC, tour de taille selon les criteres de l’IDF 2009 (> 94 cm(H) et > 80 cm(F)), et d’une enquete alimentaire basee sur la methode de l’histoire alimentaire permettant d’obtenir un bilan nutritionnel avec calcul des rations proti-diques, lipidiques et glucidiques. Resultats et Analyse statistique Le sexe ratio H/F etait de 0,19, avec une moyenne d’âge de 52,8 ans. 44% des patients avaient une activite physique reguliere. L’indice de masse corporelle moyen etait de 27,13 kg/m2, 26 % des patients etaient obeses, et 64 % avaient un tour de taille pathologique avec une moyenne de 89,02 cm. On note que 62 % des patients sont diabetiques. L’enquete alimentaire initiale a revele chez les patients un apport calorique journalier moyen de 2 428,15 Kcal/j, avec un apport excessif chez 66 % des patients. L’apport en glucides etait en moyenne de 55,91 %, celui des lipides etait en moyenne de 27,07 %. Par ailleurs l’apport en protides etait en moyenne de 15,82 %. La consommation d’au moins 5 fruits et legumes par jour est respectee ; 78 % des patients consomment moins de 3 produits laitiers par jour.On note une consommation excessive de dattes (2 a 20 dattes/jour), chez 46 % des patients, dont 56,5 % de diabetiques. Conclusion Cette etude montre, la forte prevalence du surpoids et de l’obesite chez cette population L’alimentation spontanee des patients est desequilibree avec des apports calorique et glucidique excessifs, et une consommation de faible de laitage temoignant d’un apport calcique insuffisant, ainsi qu’une consommation excessive de dattes, d’ou la necessite d’une education quant a l’equilibre nutritionnel, en particulier chez les patients diabetiques ou porteurs de dysglycemie.

Introduction La vitamine D, joue un role majeur dans la croissance et la mineralisation osseuse, elle possede egalement des effets non osseux, notamment par la diminution de l’insulinoresistance et du risque cardiovasculaire. Chez les sujets obeses, l’exces de masse grasse est responsable de la sequestration de la vitamine D. Le but de ce travail est de determiner le statut en vitamine D des sujets obeses suivis au service d’endocrinologie et maladie metabolique du CHU mohammed VI, marrakech. Patients et methodes C’est une etude transversale prospective, incluant les patients obeses, ayant consulte durant la periode allant d’octobre 2013 a mars 2014 chez qui nous avons evalue le statut vitaminique D. La carence en vitamine D est definie par un taux Resultats Nous avons inclus 20 patients, les resultats preliminaires montrent une moyenne d’âge des patients de 32,37 ans (± 4,82), la moyenne du tour de taille est de 119 (± 14,04). La moyenne du BMI est de 42,7 (± 4,8) kg/m2. Tous les patients avaient un taux serique de vitamine D diminue, avec une moyenne de 24,37 nmol/l (± 9,39), 62,5 % avaient une carence en vitamine D et 37,5 % avaient une insuffisance en vitamine D. Conclusion Nos resultats montrent que la prevalence du deficit en vitamine D est elevee chez les obeses. Ceci souligne l’importance de determiner le statut vitaminique D de tout sujet obese, qui par le manque d’activite physique et d’exposition au soleil, aggrave ce deficit.

- Abstract
Background Cognitive dysfunction is increasingly recognized as an important comorbidity of diabetes mellitus (DM). Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and predictors of cognitive decline in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods This cohort study included patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus aged between 40 and 75 years and with a duration of the evolution of diabetes that is greater than five years admitted in endocrinology consultation of the Sheikh Khalifa ibn Zaid Hospital in Casablanca, Morocco. For each patient, we collected clinical characteristics and biological assessments. All subjects provided screening test results as defined by the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Results We included a total of 100 patients with diabetes between May and September 2021. The median age of the patients was 65 years (interquartile range (IQR): 59-70 years), 65% were males, and the median duration of diabetes was 15 years (IQR: 9-20 years). The most common cardiovascular risk factors (CVRFs) were hypertension (72.7%) and dyslipidemia (53%). The most common complications of diabetes were peripheral neuropathy (50%), diabetic retinopathy (DR) (39%), peripheral artery disease (33%), and coronary artery disease (27%). Cognitive impairment was present in 47.5% of our patients. For the multivariate analysis, we found that the decrease in the MMSE score is associated with the increase in age (p-value = 0.004) and the occurrence of diabetic retinopathy (p-value < 0.001), dyslipidemia (p-value = 0.006), and elevated creatinine (p-value < 0.001). Conclusion It is necessary to consider the cognitive decline of patients with diabetes as one of the most important complications of this disease because of its impact on the evolution and compliance of these patients., Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist., (Copyright © 2022, Rhmari Tlemçani et al.)

- Abstract
Aims: This study aims to predict poor glycemic control during Ramadan among non-fasting patients with diabetes using machine learning models., Methods: First, we conducted three consultations, before, during, and after Ramadan to assess demographics, diabetes history, caloric intake, anthropometric and metabolic parameters. Second, machine learning techniques (Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine, Naive Bayes, K-nearest neighbor, Decision Tree, Random Forest, Extra Trees Classifier and Catboost) were trained using the data to predict poor glycemic control among patients. Then, we conducted several simulations with the best performing machine learning model using variables that were found as main predictors of poor glycemic control., Results: The prevalence of poor glycemic control among patients was 52.6%. Extra tree Classifier was the best performing model for glycemic deterioration (accuracy = 0.87, AUC = 0,87). Caloric intake evolution, gender, baseline caloric intake, baseline weight, BMI variation, waist circumference evolution and Total Cholesterol serum level after Ramadan were selected as the most significant for the prediction of poor glycemic control. We determined thresholds for each predicting factor among which this risk is present., Conclusions: The clinical use of our findings may help to improve glycemic control during Ramadan among patients who do not fast by targeting risk factors of poor glycemic control., Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2022.

- Abstract
Background: The management of diabetes during Ramadan is well codified. International guidelines recommend avoiding fasting for patients with the risk of complications. However, during Ramadan drastic changes occur in lifestyles habits. Our study aims to evaluate the impact of the month of Ramadan on the lifestyle habits and metabolic profile of non-fasting patients with diabetes., Patients and Methods: This observational cross-sectional study was carried out during 3 months of Ramadan in 2018, Ramadan 2019, and Ramadan 2021. We conducted 3 consultations (before, during, and after Ramadan). Before Ramadan, we collected anthropometric and metabolic parameters, and we assessed physical activity level and dietary intake. During Ramadan, we evaluated the occurrence of complications such as hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, as well as we assessed physical activity level, dietary intake, and the number of meals. After Ramadan re-evaluate anthropometric and metabolic parameters., Results: We included 155 patients, 93.5% had type 2 diabetes and 6.5% had type 1 diabetes. We found that glycated hemoglobin, LDL cholesterol, and Triglyceride increased significantly after Ramadan (p-value <0.001). We also found that weight, body mass index, waist circumference. Caloric intake increased significantly during Ramadan (p-value <0.001); this increase concerned 61.3% of patients. In terms of metabolic parameters, diabetes was unbalanced in 52.6% of patients, hypoglycemia occurs in 20.9% of patients, and hyperglycemia was experienced by 37% of patients during Ramadan. We found that LDL cholesterol increased in 48.4% of patients, triglycerides increased in 60.6% of patients and serum level of total cholesterol increased in 55% of patients., Conclusion: Our study showed that during Ramadan risk of complications in patients with diabetes is not only related to fasting., Competing Interests: The authors report no conflicts of interest in this work., (© 2022 Motaib et al.)

- Abstract
Severe neutropenia in newly diagnosed hyperthyroidism is a diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma since antithyroid drugs (ATDs) cannot be started if the absolute neutrophil count (ANC) is <1 x 10
9 /L. We report the case of a patient followed for hyperthyroidism associated with severe neutropenia treated with dexamethasone and ATD. The patient was 51 years old and was hospitalized for hyperthyroidism with a thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) level <0.005 (0.4-4) mUI/L, T4 at 415 (9.3-17.1) ng/L and T3 at 148 (2-4.4) pg/mL on Graves' disease (GD) confirmed by the TSH receptor antibodies at 38 IU/mL and scintigraphy, associated with neutropenia, with ANC at 0.4 x 109 /L. He was put on prednisolone 60 mg/day and propranolol 60 mg/day for three weeks without improvement. Faced with the association of hyperthyroidism and severe neutropenia, we could not start the ATD for fear of agranulocytosis; we put the patient on propranolol 60 mg and dexamethasone 6 mg with progressive degression resulting in a spectacular increase of ANC from 0.4 x 109 /L to 7.1 x 109 /L, which allowed us to start the ATD (carbimazole) at a dose of 30 mg, and then 50 mg, with monitoring of ANC and transaminases every 48 hours. Euthyroidism was achieved after 15 days. A curative treatment with radioactive iodine ablation was administered. Our patient did not respond to prednisolone but responded dramatically to dexamethasone; this leads us to consider using dexamethasone for the rapid preparation for radical treatment of patients with GD., Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist., (Copyright © 2022, Laidi et al.)- Published

- Abstract
Pituitary apoplexy (PA) is a rare clinical syndrome related to abrupt hemorrhage and/or infarction of the pituitary gland, usually occurring in patients with preexisting pituitary disease. It is an endocrine emergency requiring rapid diagnosis and appropriate management. This is a literature review and a retrospective study reporting the observation of four patients that have suffered from pituitary macroadenomas. These observations illustrate the particularities of this pathology in the elderly. The symptoms may be truncated and lead to a late diagnosis with its repercussions on management, without forgetting the particularity of the fragile and multisystemic terrain, which may contraindicate the usual surgical treatment. A rapid diagnosis and appropriate management can limit the occurrence of irreversible complications., Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist., (Copyright © 2021, Drissi Oudghiri et al.)

- Abstract
Aim: During the COVID-19 pandemic, access to health care was affected by the lockdown period. To overcome this situation, telemedicine is an alternative to conventional follow-up for patients with diabetes during the fasting month of Ramadan. The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of telemedicine consultation of diabetic patients during Ramadan compared with conventional follow-up., Methods: This comparative cross-sectional study conducted in the Sheikh Khalifa Ibn Zaid Hospital of Casablanca, Morocco, included diabetic patients followed up by conventional consultation in 2019 Ramadan and by telemedicine in 2020 Ramadan. For each patient and in both Ramadans (2019 and 2020), we have conducted a pre-Ramadan assessment, screening for acute diabetic complications during Ramadan and an evaluation of weight and glycated hemoglobin of patients, after Ramadan. We compared the occurrence of acute complications and the variation of metabolic parameters of patients in Ramadan 2020 with their results in Ramadan 2019., Results: In this study, we included 61 patients. In Ramadan 2020, compared with Ramadan 2019, there was no significant difference in terms of hypoglycemia (18.03% versus 32.78%, p = 0.09), minor hyperglycemia (13.1% versus 11.47%, p = 0.35) and major hyperglycemia or ketoacidosis (3.27% versus 6.55%, p = 0.19). Fasting was interrupted in 8.19% versus 11.47% (p = 0.012). There were no significant variations of weight (+0.62 versus -0.77; p = 0.09). In term of variation of glycated hemoglobin, there was a significant different between Ramadan 2020 and Ramadan 2019 (-0.36 versus -0.61 in 2019, p<0.05)., Conclusion: Despite comparable results in terms of weight change and hypoglycemia, our study showed that telemedicine follow-up in patients with diabetes during Ramadan did not provide as effective glycemic control as conventional monitoring., Competing Interests: The authors report no conflicts of interest in this work., (© 2021 Motaib et al.)

- Abstract
Background and objective Several cardiovascular risk factors have emerged as important determinants of severe illness and death among coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. However, the full impact of these cardiovascular risk factors is still under investigation. This study aimed to investigate the association between patients' level of cardiovascular risk and the severity of COVID-19. Materials and methods This observational study included all adult patients with COVID-19 hospitalized at Sheikh Khalifa Ibn Zaid International University Hospital from March 20 to May 10, 2020. The cardiovascular risk level was assessed by the doctor responsible for each patient based on the 2019 European Society of Cardiology (ESC), the European Atherosclerosis Society (EAS), and the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) guidelines. We examined the association between the patients' level of cardiovascular risk and their severity of COVID-19 disease by using a logistic regression model. Results Among 133 patients with confirmed COVID-19, 46.6% had a low cardiovascular risk level, 19.5% had a moderate risk level, 15.8% had a high risk level, and 18.1% was found to have a very high risk level. Patients with different cardiovascular risk levels had significantly different rates of complications including secondary infection (p-value: <0.001), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) (p-value = 0.017), intensive care unit (ICU) admission (p-value: <0.001), and death (p-value: <0.001). A patient's very high cardiovascular risk level versus low, moderate, or high cardiovascular risk level was independently associated with ICU admission [OR = 6.42, 95% CI: (1.45-28.30)]. Conclusion Based on our findings, an increased level of cardiovascular risk among patients was strongly associated with the severity of COVID-19. This study also highlights the need for assessing cardiovascular risk factors in all patients with COVID-19., Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist., (Copyright © 2021, Motaib et al.)

- Abstract
Background Obesity can be associated with one or more co-morbidities that worsen the effect of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Studies demonstrated that severe forms of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) have occurred in elderly patients and patients with co-morbidities such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases. Objective This study investigated the impact of obesity on COVID-19 severity, irrespective of other individual factors. Methods This retrospective observational study included all adult patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection, who were admitted to Sheikh Khalifa Ibn Zaid International University Hospital between March 20 and May 10, 2020. First, we compared patients with and those without obesity in terms of demographic characteristics, co-morbidities, clinical symptoms, and outcomes. Further, using logistic regression models, we analyzed the association between obesity and intensive care unit (ICU) admission. Also, we examined whether the association between obesity and ICU admission was also consistent among overweight patients. Results The study population included 107 patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection. Obese patients have been admitted in ICU more than patients without obesity (P-value = 0.035). While adjusting for other risk factors for ICU admission, we found that obesity was an independent risk factor for ICU admission (OR = 5.04, 95% CI (1.14-22.37)). When we examined the association of both obesity and overweight with ICU admission, we found that only obesity was significantly associated with ICU admission (OR = 9.11, 95% CI (1.49-55.84)). Conclusion Our study found that obesity was strongly associated with severity of COVID-19. The risk of ICU admission is greater in the presence of obesity. Physicians should be awarded to the need of specific and early management of obese patients with COVID-19 disease., Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist., (Copyright © 2021, Motaib et al.)

- Abstract
One of the overlooked adverse effects of lithium treatment is neuropsychiatric manifestations induced by hypercalcemia (LAH). Here, we present the case of a patient, with bipolar disorder under lithium, who presented with neuropsychiatric symptoms that revealed hyperparathyroidism-induced hypercalcemia. This case illustrates the importance of monitoring parathyroid function and calcium levels in patients under lithium, especially in premenopaused women. LAH may mimic symptoms of manic episodes and should be sought in the case of brutal onset of confusion, anxiety, and/or hallucinations in the course of a bipolar disorder., Competing Interests: The authors declare no conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2020 Roukaya Benjelloun et al.)

- Abstract
Diabetes is considered a risk factor for complications due to COVID-19. In order to clarify this association, we are exploring the characteristics, the clinical signs, the outcomes and death in diabetic patients with COVID-19. In this retrospective observational study we are evaluating the demographic characteristics, the comorbidities of the patients, the clinical signs of the infection, the signs of clinical severity, the biological assessment at admission, the treatment, the outcomes and the deaths of 133 patients with COVID-19, of which 25 (19,4%) had diabetes. In the compared COVID-19 patients, with and without diabetes, the patients with diabetes were older, had higher blood pressure and more cardio-vascular diseases. Severe forms were more present in diabetic patients (56% versus 27.1%). Weight loss was higher in diabetic patients (6kg versus 3kg). Biologically, diabetic patients had higher levels of C-reactive protein (28 versus 5.8mg/l), procalcitonin (0.28 versus 0,13ng/l), ferritin (501 versus 140ng/ml), lactic dehydrogenase (268 versus 226IU/l) and of D. dimer (665 versus 444μg/l). Diabetic patients required more oxygen therapy (60% versus 26.9%), more mechanical ventilation (20% versus 8.3%) and more frequent admission to the intensive care unit (60% versus 27.8%). They presented more thromboembolic complications (12% versus 9%) but there were not significant differences in the other outcomes and in death rates. The excess of morbidity and mortality due to diabetes was still not fully clarified; the role of demographic factors, the interaction of mediations with ACE-2 receptors and the role of co-morbidities will all need to be studied in order to identify the patient at risk profile, i.e. who can develop severe forms of the diseases and more outcomes. The early identification of a possible hyper inflammation could be very valuable. More attention should be paid to patients with COVID-19 with diabetes because they are at a high risk of complications., Competing Interests: The authors declare no conflict of interests., (Copyright: Saloua Elamari et al.)
