Diabetes Retinopathy Associated with Increased Risk of Intubation from COVID-19
100% of those on ventilators are diabetic…what the MSM is NOT reporting. Primarily Type 2. Enter the ICU and placed on FUL MAX volume of oxygen from the onset and stay there for 1-4 months. Most of them die, 70% have hypertension , 50% are Obese, and 20% have kidney disease.
Abstract
In our study of 187 patients with diabetes hospitalized with COVID-19 we observed a more than 5 fold increased risk of intubation in patients with diabetic retinopathy. Further studies are required to understand the mechanisms that explain the associations between retinopathy and other indices of microangiopathy with severe COVID-19…..
In conclusion, our study reports the first description of diabetic retinopathy as a potential risk factor for poor COVID-19 outcomes. The more than 5 fold increased odds of intubation in patients with diabetic retinopathy was independent of conventional risk factors for poor COVID-19 outcomes. Our findings may help clinicians better risk stratify people with diabetes at high risk of adverse COVID-19 outcomes and establish a platform for further studies to understand the mechanisms between endothelial dysfunction/microangiopathy and susceptibility to severe COVID-19 infection.

Diabetic retinopathy, also known as diabetic eye disease, is a medical condition in which damage occurs to the retina due to diabetes mellitus. It is a leading cause of blindness in developed countries. Diabetic retinopathy affects up to 80 percent of those who have had diabetes for 20 years or more
