Moreover, increased plasma glucose on admission to hospital was associated with poorer outcomes in patients with mild, moderate and severe COVID-19 [2] [3] [4] . To investigate the role of early glycaemic control in the outcomes of patients with COVID-19, we studied 132 consecutive hospitalised hyperglycaemic patients with moderate disease, admitted to Infectious diseases departments (Vanvitelli University, Naples Italy; San Sebastiano Caserta Hospital, Caserta, Italy). Fig. 1 (a) Blood glucose levels on admission to hospital and after 24 h for patients with (n = 60) and without severe disease (n = 72) at 20 days after hospitalisation.	./cache/cord-275260-xuhxqkyj.txt	./txt/cord-275260-xuhxqkyj.txt
