Abstract ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) incidence rates has been decreased inversely to non-STEMI (121 to 77, 126 to 132 per 100.000 case respectively). Diabetes as a risk factors of STEMI is found in 20% patients. The increment of fibrinogen level in diabetic patient may induce compact clots resistance to fibrinolysis that lead to hypercoagulable state problem. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), a non-surgical invasive procedure, can be done to relieve the obstruction. We reported two case reports, patients with anterior extensive STEMI who had underwent primary PCI. Both patients were found a total occlusion at proximal segment of LAD. First case was presented type 2 diabetes mellitus as comorbid while the second case was without diabetes. High burden thrombus was found on the diabetic patient which had poor prognosis, but on the non diabetic patient was found only less thrombus which was more stable condition. There is a strong correlation between type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Glucose control is important for prevention of CVD. Dietary changes that are characterized by increased use of natural sources diets such as whole grains, vegetables, and fruit-based foods and increased physical activity is remarkably strong factors for diabetes prevention.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Introduction Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and sudden cardiac death (SCD) are major cardiovascular adverse outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus. Although there are many risk scores on composite outcomes of major cardiovascular adverse outcomes or cardiovascular mortality for diabetic patients, these existing scores did not account for the difference in pathogenesis and prognosis between acute coronary syndrome and lethal ventricular arrhythmias. Furthermore, recent studies reported that HbA1c and lipid levels, which were often accounted for in these risk scores, have J/U-shaped relationships with adverse outcomes. Purpose The present study aims to evaluate the application of incorporating non-linear J/U-shaped relationships between mean HbA1c and cholesterol levels into risk scores for predicting for AMI and non-AMI related SCD respectively, amongst type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Methods This was a territory-wide cohort study of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus above the age 40 and free from prior AMI and SCD, with or without prescriptions of anti-diabetic agents between January 1st, 2009 to December 31st, 2009 at government-funded hospitals and clinics in Hong Kong. Risk scores were developed for predicting incident AMI and non-AMI related SCD. The performance of conditional inference survival forest (CISF) model compared to that of random survival forests (RSF) model and multivariate Cox model. Results This study included 261308 patients (age = 66.0 ± 11.8 years old, male = 47.6%, follow-up duration = 3552 ± 1201 days, diabetes duration = 4.77 ± 2.29 years). Mean HbA1c and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) were significant predictors of AMI under multivariate Cox regression and were linearly associated with AMI. Mean HbA1c and total cholesterol were significant multivariate predictors with a J-shaped relationship with non-AMI related SCD. The AMI and SCD risk scores had an area-under-the-curve (AUC) of 0.666 (95% confidence interval (CI)= [0.662, 0.669]) and 0.677 (95% CI= [0.673, 0.682]), respectively. CISF significantly improves prediction performance of both outcomes compared to RSF and multivariate Cox models. Conclusions A holistic combination of demographic, clinical, and laboratory indices can be used for the risk stratification of type 2 diabetic patients against AMI and SCD.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of type 2 diabetes mellitus on epicardial coronary flow velocity assessed by the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count. The thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count was measured in 272 coronary arteries from 101 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and in 271 coronary arteries from 104 age- and gender-matched patients without type 2 diabetes mellitus referred for coronary angiography. The thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count was measured only in normal arteries or in arteries without significant lesion. By both univariate and multivariate analysis, the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count was not related with either type 2 diabetes mellitus or the duration and glycated hemoglobin levels in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count was significantly associated with body surface area, heart rate, and proximal coronary artery diameter. Type 2 diabetes mellitus did not affect epicardial coronary flow velocity assessed by the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count.

Background/Aim. After myocardial infarction arrhythmic cardiac deaths are significantly more frequent compared to non-arrhythmic ones. The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on the frequency and complexity of ventricular arrhythmias after myocardial infarction. Methods. The study included 293 patients, mean age 59.5 ? 9.21 years, who were at least six months after acute myocardial infarction with the sinus rhythm, without atrioventricular blocks and branch blocks. In the clinical group 95 (32.42%) patients were with T2DM, while 198 (67.57%) patients were without diabetes. All of the patients were subjected to the following procedures: standard ECG according to which the corrected QT dispersion (QTdc) was calculated, exercise stress test, and 24-hour holter monitoring according to which, the four parameters of time domain of heart rate variability (HRV) were analyzed: standard deviation of all normal RR intervals during 24 hours (SDNN), standard deviation of the averages of normal RR intervals in all five-minute segments during 24 hours (SDANN), the square root of the mean of the sum of the squares of differences between adjacent normal (RMS-SD), and percentage of consequtive RR intervals which differed for more than 50 ms during 24 hours (NN > 50 ms). Results. In patients after myocardial infarction, patients with T2DM had significantly higher percentage of frequent and complex ventricular arrhythmias compared to the patients without diabetes (p < 0.001). The patients with T2DM had significantly higher percentage of residual ischemia (p < 0.001), and arterial hypertension (p < 0.001), compared to patients without diabetes. The patients with T2DM had significantly lower values of HRV parameters: SDNN (p < 0.001); SDANN (p < 0.001); RMS-SD (p < 0.001), and NN > 50 ms (p < 0.001), and significantly higher values of QTdc (p < 0.001) compared to the patients without diabetes. Conclusion. The study showed that type 2 diabetes mellitus has significant influence on ventricular arrhythmias, HRV parameters and QT dispersion in patients after myocardial infarction.

Increased Risk

Introduction and Objective: Postmarketing reports and warnings of serious adverse events such as diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) have raised concern regarding the safety of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i). This report describes 2 cases of symptomatic SGLT2i-associated euglycemic DKA (euDKA) leading to hospitalization in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) previously well controlled on oral medications. Case Reports: Subject 1 is a 55-year-old female admitted with euDKA precipitated by infection and managed with intravenous insulin. This case was notable for a delayed diagnosis of euDKA and lack of clinical improvement despite withholding dapagliflozin. Subject 2 is a 62-year-old male admitted with euDKA precipitated by infection. His clinical condition improved rapidly and euDKA responded to withdrawal of empagliflozin alone. Discussion: Applying the Naranjo adverse medication reaction probability scale to each case (subject 1 score = 3 points; subject 2 score = 4 points) suggests these are possible adverse reactions to SGLT2i. Data from randomized controlled trials suggest DKA events in adults with type 2 DM receiving SGLT2i are rare and similar to placebo. However, data from a large cohort suggest these events occur more frequently and are associated with a 2-fold increased risk of DKA. Conclusion: This class of medications may be associated with a higher real-world risk of DKA in adults with type 2 DM than previously reported. Patients prescribed these medications should receive vigilant assessment for features of traditional DKA as well as euDKA.
