Abstract

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‑CoV‑2) infection and the caused disease ‑ coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‑19), has affected so far >6,000,000 people worldwide, with variable grades of severity, and has already inflicted >350,000 deaths. SARS‑CoV‑2 infection seems severely affected by background diseases such as diabetes mellitus and its related complications, that seem to be favoring the most severe manifestations of SARS‑CoV‑2 and, therefore, require special attention in clinical care units. The present literature review focus on addressing several hypotheses explaining why diabetic patients could develop multi‑organ failure in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS‑CoV) infections. Undoubtedly, as diabetes related complications are present it is expected to emphasize the severity of the COVID‑19. Dermatological complications can occur and worsen in diabetic patients, and diseases such as acanthosis nigricans and psoriasis are prone to more severe manifestations of COVID‑19. Approaches to treat SARS‑CoV‑2 infected patients, based on different solutions i.e. plasma therapy, use of antiviral compounds, development of vaccines or new therapeutic agents are ongoing.
