CONCLUSIONS: In this large U.S. cohort of hospitalized patients with diabetes and COVID-19, insulin treatment, as a possible proxy for diabetes duration, and obesity rather than long-term glycemic control were predictive of mortality. Few studies have specifically examined the effect of preadmission glycemic control in patients with diabetes and risk of in-hospital mortality from COVID-19, despite having great implications for outpatient glycemic management during the pandemic. The goal of this study was to use a U.S. cohort to examine the association of outpatient glycemic control, diabetes treatment, and other characteristics with mortality among hospitalized patients with diabetes and COVID-19. We investigated whether HbA 1c levels, outpatient diabetes treatment, and other characteristics were associated with in-hospital mortality among patients with COVID-19 and preexisting diabetes.	./cache/cord-337098-33yj5g5v.txt	./txt/cord-337098-33yj5g5v.txt
