Read More On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) announced a global warning due to the rapid spread of the COVID-19 disease. The transmission and pathogenicity of this disease is very high and it rapid global spread. Diabetes Mellitus is one of the most common diseases in the world, the main symptom of which is chronic high blood sugar. In various studies, the possible relationship between diabetes and COVID-19 has been investigated. Corona has been more severe in diabetic patients than in healthy people. Identifying risk factors for COVID-19 is crucial and can play a role in determining treatment priorities; this study was conducted to investigate the frequency of COVID-19 patients with diabetes and the relationship between the two diseases in Ghaem Hospital, Mashhad. In this study, the information available in the medical archive in Ghaem Hospital of Mashhad related to the patients hospitalized due to Coronavirus from April 2019 to September 2021 was used. Demographic information of the patients, including the history of diabetes, blood sugar level, and recovery status was extracted from the files by the project student, and then patients with diabetes were randomly selected with the help of a random number table, by calling the patient or first-degree relatives through the number registered in the file, if possible, information related to have toothache during and after hospitalization, and oral ulcers. During and after hospitalization, the type of diabetes was taken and recorded. In this study, the information of 1370 patients were analyzed. Among the patients, 61.5% had diabetes. 52.9% of cases were related to men and 47.1% were related to women. The mortality rate in patients with diabetes (38.3%) was significantly higher than that in people without diabetes (30.7%). Likewise, the average age of people who died due to Corona was higher than those who were discharged. Oral ulcers during hospitalization were reported in 58.1% of people with type 1 diabetes and 35.3% of people with type II diabetes, and the difference between them was also significant. Oral ulcers after hospitalization were seen in 16.3% of people with type 1 diabetes and 1.5% of people with type II diabetes. In this study, the death rate of patients with diabetes was higher than that of normal people. It was reported that people with type I diabetes have more oral ulcers than people with type II diabetes, which requires more dental attention for these people.
