Methods: The hospital information management system was retrospectively analyzed for all coronavirus-19 related deaths between January 2020 and January 2023. Attention was paid to the patients’ ages, genders, provinces of residence, marital status, and chronic illnesses. Results: The mean age of the 623 victims was 75.9 ± 12.7 years. Male patients made up 58.3% of the deceased. When the victims were examined for comorbidities, it was discovered that 70.5% of the patients had cardiovascular system disease, 43.3% had endo- crine system disease, 43% had respiratory system disease, 32.7% had central nervous system disease, 34.5% had hyperlipidemia, 24.4% had urinary system disease, and 10.1% had malignancy. Conclusion: When the victims were compared with the examples in the literature, a similarity was discovered in terms of the dis- tribution of their age, gender, marital status, endocrine system diseases, cardiovascular system diseases, chronic urinary system diseases, diabetes mellitus type I and II, hypothyroidism, and malignancy. Further, incidences of chronic respiratory system disease, diseases of the central nervous system, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, cerebrovascular accident, and hyperlipidemia were found to be extremely high in the province studied as compared with the literature.</dc:description><dc:date>2023</dc:date><dc:type>Article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/ebyu/17850</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>https://doi.org/10.5152/abcr.2023.23171</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>2687-4520</dc:identifier><dc:language>en</dc:language><dc:relation>Archives of Basic and Clinical Research</dc:relation><dc:rights>info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess</dc:rights><dc:type>info:eu-repo/semantics/article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://ebyu-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/ebyu/17850</dc:identifier></oai_dc:dc></metadata></record></GetRecord></OAI-PMH>
