Implications of obesity and chronic degenerative diseases in complications from COVID-19: a systematic review
Main Article Content
Abstract
The aim of this work is to analyze studies related to metabolic comorbidities as obesity and chronic degenerative diseases (ECDs) and SARS-CoV-2 complications. A review with Pubmed search until May, 2020 using the keywords obesity, hypertension, diabetes, chronic degenerative diseases, COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, angiotensin converting enzyme, and cytokine storm, was made. Studies indicate that different aspects related to the pathophysiology of obesity and ECDs promote complication on patient infected with SARS COv-2. In general, the chronic proinflammatory state on obese patient and the increase in the expression of ACE2 in subjects with hypertension and diabetes may enhance the infectious process including the systemic incorporation of the virus and promote higher imbalance in the immune response described as cytokine storm, with higher risk of mortality. Although the analysis is limited to few reports, with higher variation in the number of patients and descriptive datas, but it is clear that information generated up to the moment on Pandemic by COVID-19 will help to understand relations on obesity and ECDs in relation with complications by COVID-19. These are important for the therapeutic management of the patient, especially in Mexico where the prevalence of obesity and ECD are considerably higher.
