Insights
Diabetes mellitus (DM) significantly increases heart failure (HF) risk after coronary revascularization. Insulin treatment in DM patients did not further elevate this risk compared to non-insulin-treated DM patients.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Endocrinology
- Clinical Research
Background:
- The long-term impact of diabetes mellitus (DM) on heart failure (HF) risk post-coronary revascularization requires further investigation.
- Understanding this relationship is crucial for managing cardiovascular outcomes in diabetic patients.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the effect of diabetes mellitus (DM) status on the long-term risk of heart failure (HF) hospitalization in patients undergoing coronary revascularization.
- To compare the risk between insulin-treated DM (ITDM) and non-insulin-treated DM (NITDM) patients.
Main Methods:
- A cohort of 15,231 patients from the CREDO-Kyoto Registry Cohort-2 who underwent coronary revascularization were analyzed.
- Patients were categorized into DM (n=5,999) and Non-DM (n=9,232) groups. DM patients were further divided into ITDM (n=1,353) and NITDM (n=4,646) groups.
- The primary outcome was HF hospitalization, assessed over a 5-year period using survival analysis and adjusted for confounders.
Main Results:
- The 5-year cumulative incidence of HF hospitalization was significantly higher in DM patients (11.0%) compared to Non-DM patients (6.6%) (P<0.0001).
- HF hospitalization rates were also higher in ITDM patients (14.6%) versus NITDM patients (10.0%) (P<0.0001).
- After adjustment, DM remained a significant risk factor for HF hospitalization (HR 1.47, P<0.0001), but the difference between ITDM and NITDM was not significant (HR 1.17, P=0.12).
Conclusions:
- Diabetes mellitus significantly increases the long-term risk of heart failure hospitalization following coronary revascularization.
- The increased risk associated with DM persists regardless of the revascularization strategy used.
- No significant difference in HF hospitalization risk was observed between insulin-treated and non-insulin-treated DM patients.
Background:
The effect of diabetes mellitus (DM) status on the long-term risk for heart failure (HF) in patients undergoing coronary revascularization has not been adequately evaluated.
Methods And Results:
In this study, 15,231 patients who underwent coronary revascularization in the CREDO-Kyoto Registry Cohort-2 were divided into 2 groups according to DM status (DM group: n=5,999; Non-DM group: n=9,232). The DM group was further divided into 2 groups according to insulin treatment (insulin-treated DM [ITDM]: n=1,353; non-insulin-treated DM [NITDM]: n=4,646). The primary outcome measure was HF hospitalization. The cumulative 5-year incidence of HF hospitalization was significantly higher in the DM than non-DM group (11.0% vs. 6.6%, respectively; log-rank P<0.0001), and in the ITDM than NITDM group (14.6% vs. 10.0%, respectively; log-rank P<0.0001). After adjusting for confounders, the increased risk of HF hospitalization with DM relative to non-DM remained significant (hazard ratio [HR] 1.47, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.30-1.67, P<0.0001), whereas the risk associated with ITDM relative to NITDM was not significant (HR 1.17, 95% CI 0.96-1.43, P=0.12).
Conclusions:
The adjusted long-term risk for HF hospitalization after coronary revascularization was significantly higher in DM than non-DM patients, regardless of revascularization strategy, but did not differ between ITDM and NITDM patients.
