Abstract

Purpose: to identify prognostic criteria for the severe course of COVID-19 in patients with metabolic disorders depending on body mass index, age and existing comorbid pathology, clinical and laboratory data.

Materials and Methods. Research methods: systemic approach, medical-statistical, structural-logical analysis, clinical methods, laboratory, instrumental.

Results. A high frequency of metabolic pathology, in particular the frequency of diabetes and hyperglycemia in patients with a severe course of the coronavirus disease, was revealed, which requires risk correction at both the individual and population levels. Excess adipose tissue in the human body is a modifiable factor, unlike age and gender.

Conclusions. 1. Providing medical care in conditions of mass sanitary losses during the pandemic required ranking patients according to individual risk. The search for means of assessing predictors of the severe course of the coronavirus disease continues.

2. In the case of coronavirus disease, the mechanism of influence is determined both by the direct effect of the virus on target organs and indirectly through immune inflammation. The level of background chronic inflammation before the onset of the coronavirus disease in patients with metabolic disorders with excess adipose tissue is an independent risk factor and requires timely appointment of therapy, as well as assessment of risk groups requiring hospitalization.

3. The tactics of treating patients depends on the initial assessment of anthropometric data, initial clinical and laboratory data, and existing accompanying pathology.
