Diabetes mellitus is a well-recognized contributor to increased COVID-19 severity. Endothelial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathogenesis of COVID-19, while thrombocytopenia has been identified as a potential risk factor for severe COVID-19. In this study, we evaluated the combined effect of thrombocytopenia and other markers of endothelial dysfunction on disease outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes and active COVID-19 infection. Our aim was to risk stratify patients with COVID-19 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, which can help identify patients with high-risk features who will benefit the most from hospital admission and a high level of care. This cross-sectional study was performed after reviewing secondary data of 932 patients with COVID-19 and type 2 diabetes mellitus in the outpatient and inpatient settings across Qatar between March 1, 2020 and May 7, 2020. Univariate and multivariate analyses, with adjustment for low platelet counts, were performed for the following variables: age, hemoglobin, white blood cells (WBC), lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, ferritin, D-dimer, and interleukin 6. Increasing age was associated with an increased risk for death and/or intensive care unit admission in diabetic patients with COVID-19 who have low platelet counts. These findings support the evidence found in the literature and give special attention to COVID-19 patients with low platelet counts and diabetes mellites. These results can guide physicians in making clinical decisions regarding hospital admission and escalation of care during follow-up in this population of patients.
