With regard to laboratory findings, elevated markers of inflammation (high CRP, white blood cell count, neutrophil count, ferritin, IL-6, and TNF-a), coagulation (such as d-dimers), and organ dysfunction (e.g., creatinine and lactate dehydrogenase), and low serum albumin or lymphocyte count were associated with worse outcomes among COVID-19-infected patients with DM in some studies (106, 109, 117, 137, 138). Here, CRP is linked to COVID-19.
