Hyperglycemia is considered an adaptive metabolic manifestation of stress and is associated with poor outcomes. Herein, we analyzed the association between glycemic variability (GV) and hospital mortality in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), and the association between GV and mechanical ventilation (MV), ICU stay, length of hospital stays, renal replacement therapy (RRT), hypoglycemia, nosocomial infections, insulin use, and corticosteroid class.
