Abstract
Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, it has become evident that individuals living with diabetes are at a heightened risk of experiencing severe forms of the disease. As such, a retrospective descriptive study was conducted in 236 diabetic patients who were admitted to the Ibn Sina hospital in Rabat due to COVID-19 infection. The study aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of the clinical, biological, radiological, and evolutionary parameters of diabetic patients infected with COVID-19. This article summarizes the results of the study and compares them with existing literature.
