About this study

Official title: Diabetes and COVID-19 in Tunisia (CoviDTUN)

CoviDTUN is a multicenter observatory set up by a steering committee to determine the presentation and evolution of diabetes in COVID-19 and study its pathogenesis.

The observatory comprises a dataset consisting of routinely collected clinical information anonymously to be entered by the investigator as a participating clinician/researcher.

The study will be an opportunity to understand the relationship between COVID-19 and diabetes, to enrich Tunisian data on diabetic and de novo diabetic patients who have contracted COVID-19 and to evaluate the prognostic severity factors for better management of these patients.

Read the detailed description

It is a multicentric Tunisian observatory for COVID-19 patients. Confirmed COVID-19 patients, treated on an outpatient basis, in containment centers or hospitalized in COVID-19 units were included retrospectively from March 2020 and had continued prospectively til June 2022. The study had selected eligible patient recorded for inclusion by free practice physicians and hospital physicians. General data, medical history, epidemiological characteristics, clinical examination, biological assessment (blood glucose, NFS, CRP, D-dimer, etc.), clinical course and complications were therefore recorded in a structured and anonymized database. Data collection was carried out by DACIMA Clinical Suite® solution, in accordance with the normative and regulatory provisions in force in the management of health data.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Effectiveness of patients with COVID-19 who have developed de novo diabetes.

    The de novo diabetic patient is defined as follows: Fasting blood glucose ≥ 1.26 g/L (7mmol/L) or postprandial blood glucose ≥ 2g/L (11.1 mmol/L) within 2 weeks of COVID- 19 infection, no history of diabetes before the COVID-19 episode.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Demographic characteristics of diabetic patients

    age, weight, gender, BMI, age of diabetes, diabetes treatments, type of diabetes, diabetes complications, comorbidities (hypertension, heart disease, dyslipidemia), vaccination status (number of doses, type of vaccine), associated treatments, hospitalization, evolution (use of respiratory support, cure, death following COVID-19 infection in diabetic and non-diabetic patients).

    Measured: 3 months

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effectiveness of patients with COVID-19 who have developed de novo diabetes. (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
