Abstract: 
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease that has caused millions of deaths. COVID-19 patients with diabetes mellitus have increased mortality rates in comparison to COVID-19 patients without diabetes mellitus. Laboratory findings such as C-reactive protein, D-dimer, and glomerular filtration rates may potentially provide predictive value on mortality in COVID-19 patients with diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this literature review is to summarize previous findings on the association of C-reactive protein, D-dimer, and Glomerular Filtration Rate with clinical outcomes of COVID-19 patients with Diabetes Mellitus.
