Resumo: | ABSTRACT We assess the severity and frequency of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in new-onset type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) patients and in patients with previous diagnosis of T1D in a referral Brazilian university hospital in the first five months of the COVID-19 pandemic. We also compare the data with data from pre-pandemic periods. Forty-three new-onset T1D patients were diagnosed between April and August of the years 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of new-onset T1D was over twice the number of new-onset T1D in the same period in the three previous years. All the 43 patients survived and are now on outpatient follow-up. We also compared the characteristics of the T1D patients hospitalized between April and August of the years 2017, 2018, and 2019 (32 hospitalizations) to the characteristics of the T1D patients hospitalized between April and August/2020 (35 hospitalizations; 1 patient was hospitalized twice in this period). Fourteen of the 34 patients admitted during the pandemic presented with COVID-19-related symptoms (any respiratory symptom, fever, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea), but only one had positive SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR test. Samples from 32 out of these 34 patients were assayed for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies, and four patients were positive for total antibodies (IgM and IgG). In agreement with recent reports from European countries, we observed increased frequency of DKA and severe DKA in new-onset and previously diagnosed T1D children and adolescents in a large referral public hospital in Brazil in the first five months of the COVID-19 pandemic. The reasons for this outcome might have been fear of SARS-CoV-2 infection in emergency settings, the more limited availability of primary healthcare, and the lack of school personnel’s attention toward children’s general well-being. |
