Brief Summary

The strict rules applied in Italy during the recent COVID-19 pandemic, with the prohibition to attend any regular outdoor activity, are likely to influence the degree of metabolic control of patients with type 2 diabetes. The aim of this observational, prospective, single centre study was to evaluate the immediate impact of the lockdown rules on the metabolic profile of a cohort of patients with type 2 diabetes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Glucose

    Blood glucose was expressed in mg/dl and was determined by standard techniques.

    One week after the end of the lockdown period

  • HbA1c

    HbA1c was expressed as percentage or mmol/l and was determined by standard techniques.

    One week after the end of the lockdown period

  • Lipid profile

    Complete lipid profile (total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, Triglcerydes) were expressed in mg/dl or mmol/l and were determined by standard techniques.

    One week after the end of the lockdown period

Study Arms (1)

Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

Patients with type 2 diabetes and a scheduled visit during the lockdown for COVID-19
