BACKGROUND AND AIMS: To compare Saudi Arabia with other countries regarding patient attitudes towards fasting Ramadan and complications related to fasting during the COVID-19 pandemic.
METHODS: Data collected from Saudi Arabia and 12 other mostly Muslim majority countries, via physician administered questionnaire within post Ramadan 2020.
RESULTS: 1485 Type1 diabetes (T1DM) patients analyzed; 705 (47.5%) from Saudi Arabia vs. 780 (52.5%) from other countries. 1056 (71.1%) fasted Ramadan; 636 (90.2%) of Saudi patients vs. 420 (53.8%) of other countries. Experiencing Ramadan during the COVID-19 pandemic did not affect the Saudi T1DM patients' decision to fast while it significantly influenced their decision in other countries (1.4 vs 9.9%, P < 0.001). More Saudi patients needed to break the fast due to a diabetes related complication compared to other countries (67.4% vs. 46.8%, p=<0.001). The mean number of days fasted in Saudi and other countries was 24 ± 7 and 23 ± 8 days respectively. Hypoglycemic events were more common among Saudi patients during Ramadan compared to other countries 72% and 43.6% (p < 0.001) respectively. There was a significant difference in timing; the largest peak for Saudi Arabia patients was after dawn (35% vs 7%, p < 0.001), while it was pre-sunset for the other countries (23 vs 54%, p = 0.595). Day time-hyperglycemia was also more common among Saudi patients (48.6% vs. 39%, p < 0.001), however it was a less likely cause to break the fast (25.6% vs 38.3%, p < 0.001).
CONCLUSION: Observing the fast of Ramadan is extremely common among Saudi T1DM patients compared to other Muslim countries and was not affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it was associated with higher frequency of hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic episodes.
