RESULTS: The levels of lymphocytes, uric acid (UA), and globulin in the T2DM group were significantly higher. CONCLUSION: T2DM patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 showed decreased levels of body mass index (BMI), lymphocytes, UA, and albumin, and increased CRP levels. Considering the above, we hypothesized that the reduction in the UA levels of patients with COVID-19 was the result of antioxidant reaction and overconsumption of free radicals after SARS-CoV-2 infection. In recent studies, LDH levels are increased in COVID-19 patients [17, 18] and related to the severity of the disease [4] . The results of the current study also indicated that LDH levels were increased in patients with COVID-19. The decreased BMI, UA, and albumin levels may be associated with oxidative stress response and nutritional consumption. ./cache/cord-284955-6y6nnqno.txt ./txt/cord-284955-6y6nnqno.txt
