Hyperglycemia and insulin use in patients with COVID-19 and severe hypoxemia allocated to 12 mg vs. 6 mg of dexamethasone: a secondary analysis of the COVID STEROID 2 randomized trial
Higher vs. standard doses of dexamethasone were associated with a higher incidence of severe hyperglycemia in patients with COVID-19 and severe hypoxemia, but the average increase in PG was similar between groups.
