Abstract Background The management of revascularized patients with COVID-19, particularly in the presence of diabetes mellitus (DM), presents significant challenges. Understanding the clinical outcomes in this subgroup is essential for optimizing patient care during the pandemic. Purpose This study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of revascularized COVID-positive patients with and without DM, focusing on revascularization methods, hospitalization rates, mechanical ventilation requirement, mortality, stroke incidence, and presentation of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) subtypes. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the cohort of 620 COVID-positive revascularized patients. Among them, 267 patients had diabetes mellitus (DM), while 353 patients did not. Data on revascularization methods, hospitalization rates, mechanical ventilation requirement, mortality, stroke incidence, and ACS presentation were collected and compared between the two groups. Statistical analysis was performed to assess the significance of differences observed. Results Among the 620 COVID-positive revascularized patients, 267 (43.1%) had diabetes mellitus, while 353 (56.9%) did not. Demographic analysis revealed that 299 (84.7%) of the COVID-positive patients with diabetes mellitus were male, compared to 181 (67.8%) of those without diabetes mellitus. This difference in gender distribution between the two groups was statistically significant (p < 0.001). Additionally, smoking was more prevalent among COVID-positive patients without diabetes mellitus (38.8%) compared to those with diabetes mellitus (22.5%), with a significant difference observed (p < 0.001) (Table 1). Among the revascularized patients, a higher proportion of patients with diabetes mellitus underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) compared to those without DM (32.6% vs. 24.1%, p = 0.019). Patients with diabetes exhibited significantly higher hospitalization rates (27.0% vs. 15.6%, p = 0.001) and a trend towards increased mechanical ventilation requirement (11.1% vs. 3.6%, p = 0.121). However, mortality rates, stroke incidence, and ACS presentation did not significantly differ between the two groups (Table2). Conclusion This study underscores the heightened vulnerability of revascularized COVID-positive patients with DM, as evidenced by higher hospitalization rates and a trend towards increased mechanical ventilation requirement. These findings emphasize the importance of tailored management strategies for this high-risk subgroup to optimize patient outcomes during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.Table 1Table 2
