Abstract

Background: Since its emergence in December 2019, until June 2022, coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) has impacted populations all around the globe with it having been contracted by ~ 535 M people and leaving ~ 6.31 M dead. This makes identifying and predicating COVID-19 an important healthcare priority. Method and Material: The dataset used in this study was obtained from Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences in Tehran, and includes the information of 29,817 COVID-19 patients who were hospitalized between October 8, 2019 and March 8, 2021. As diabetes has been shown to be a significant factor for poor outcome, we have focused on COVID-19 patients with diabetes, leaving us with 2824 records. Results: The data has been analyzed using a decision tree algorithm and several association rules were mined. Said decision tree was also used in order to predict the release status of patients. We have used accuracy (87.07%), sensitivity (88%), and specificity (80%) as assessment metrics for our model. Conclusion: Initially, this study provided information about the percentages of admitted Covid-19 patients with various underlying disease. It was observed that diabetic patients were the largest population at risk. As such, based on the rules derived from our dataset, we found that age category (51–80), CPR and ICU residency play a pivotal role in the discharge status of diabetic inpatients. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Tehran University of Medical Sciences.
