<b>Objective: </b>To describe the relationship between type 2 diabetes and all-cause mortality amongst adults with COVID-19 in the critical care setting. <p><b>Research Design and Methods: </b>Nationwide retrospective cohort study in people admitted to hospital in England with COVID-19 requiring admission to a high dependency unit (HDU) or intensive care unit (ICU) between March 1, 2020 and July 27, 2020. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate 30 day in-hospital all-cause mortality associated with type 2 diabetes, adjusted for age, sex, ethnicity, obesity, and other major comorbidities (chronic respiratory disease, asthma, chronic heart disease, hypertension, immunosuppression, chronic neurological disease, chronic renal disease, and chronic liver disease).</p> <p><b>Results: </b>19,256 COVID-19 related HDU and ICU admissions were included in the primary analysis, including 13,809 HDU (mean age 70), and 5,447 ICU admissions (mean age 58). 3,524 (18.3%) had type 2 diabetes. 5,077 people (26.4%) died during the study period. People with type 2 diabetes were at increased risk of death (adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 1.23 [95%CI 1.14;1.32]), results were consistent in HDU and ICU subsets. The relative mortality risk associated with type 2 diabetes decreased with increasing age (age 18-49 aHR 1.50 [95%CI 1.05;2.15]; age 50-64 1.29 [1.10;1.51]; age 65 or greater 1.18 [1.09;1.29], p-value for age:type 2 diabetes interaction 0.002).</p> <b>Conclusions: </b>Type 2 diabetes may be an independent prognostic factor for survival in people with severe COVID-19 requiring critical care treatment, and in this setting the risk increase associated with type 2 diabetes is greatest in younger people.<b><u><br> </u></b>

Abstract Aims/hypothesis Preterm birth (gestational age <37 weeks) has been associated with insulin resistance early in life. However, no large population-based studies have examined risks of type 1 and type 2 diabetes and potential sex-specific differences from childhood into adulthood. Clinicians will increasingly encounter adults who were born prematurely and will need to understand their long-term risks. We hypothesised that preterm birth is associated with increased risks of type 1 and type 2 diabetes into adulthood. Methods A national cohort study was conducted of all 4,193,069 singletons born in Sweden during 1973–2014, who were followed up for type 1 and type 2 diabetes identified from nationwide diagnoses and pharmacy data to the end of 2015 (maximum age 43 years; median age at the end of follow-up 22.5 years). Cox regression was used to adjust for potential confounders, and co-sibling analyses assessed the influence of shared familial (genetic and/or environmental) factors. Results In 92.3 million person-years of follow-up, 27,512 (0.7%) and 5525 (0.1%) people were identified with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, respectively. Gestational age at birth was inversely associated with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes risk. Adjusted HRs for type 1 and type 2 diabetes at age <18 years associated with preterm birth were 1.21 (95% CI, 1.14, 1.28) and 1.26 (95% CI, 1.01, 1.58), respectively, and at age 18–43 years were 1.24 (95% CI, 1.13, 1.37) and 1.49 (95% CI, 1.31, 1.68), respectively, compared with full-term birth. The associations between preterm birth and type 2 (but not type 1) diabetes were stronger among females (e.g. at age 18–43 years, females: adjusted HR, 1.75; 95% CI, 1.47, 2.09; males: 1.28; 95% CI, 1.08, 1.53; p < 0.01 for additive and multiplicative interaction). These associations were only partially explained by shared genetic or environmental factors in families. Conclusions/interpretation In this large national cohort, preterm birth was associated with increased risk of type 1 and type 2 diabetes from childhood into early to mid-adulthood. Preterm-born children and adults may need early preventive evaluation and long-term monitoring for diabetes.
