Purpose of review Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is a major comorbidity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) but less is known about COVID-19 and type 1 diabetes (T1DM).

These studies showed that patients with preexisting T1DM and COVID-19 infection often present with hyperglycemia and/or...

Coronavirus disease 2019 and neurodegenerative disease: what will the future bring?
Purpose of review Over 70 million people worldwide, including those with neurodegenerative disease (NDD), have been diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) to date. We review outcomes in patients with NDD and COVID-19 and discuss the hypothesis that due to putative commonalities of neuropathogenesis, COVID-19 may unmask or trigger NDD in vulnerable individuals. Recent findings Based on a systematic review of published literature, patients with NDD, including dementia, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis (MS) make up a significant portion of hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Such patients are lik...

Comorbidities that predict acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 test positivity in Mexican Children: A case ‐control study
SummarySome comorbidities are risk factors for severe coronavirus disease (Covid ‐19) but it is unknown whether some increase susceptibility to Covid‐19 in children. In this Mexican case‐control study, contact with patients with Covid‐19, or having obesity, or having diabetes, or hypertension or been immunosuppressed independently increased the risk for Covid‐19 in the whole sample analysis. However, only contact history and obesity remained statistically significant in the separated analysis of girls and boys. The results suggest that obesity is not only associated with severe disease but also increases risk for...
