• Objective To examine the association between (1) comorbid conditions related to diabetes mellitus, clinical findings on arrival at the hospital, and characteristics of the myocardial infarction and (2) risk of heart failure, recurrent myocardial infarction, and mortality in the year after myocardial infarction in elderly 30-day survivors of myocardial infarction who had non–insulin- or insulin-treated diabetes. • Methods Medical records for June 1, 1992, through February 28, 1993, of Medicare beneficiaries (n = 1698), 65 years or older, hospitalized for acute myocardial infarction in Connecticut were reviewed by trained abstractors. • Results One year after myocardial infarction, elderly patients with non–insulin- and insulin-treated diabetes mellitus had significantly greater risk for readmission for heart failure and recurrent myocardial infarction than did patients without diabetes mellitus, and risk was greater in patients treated with insulin than in patients not treated with insulin. Diabetes mellitus, comorbid conditions related to diabetes mellitus, clinical findings on arrival, and characteristics of the myocardial infarction, specifically measures of ventricular function, were important predictors of these outcomes. Mortality was greater in patients not treated with insulin than in patients treated with insulin; the increased risk was mostly due to comorbid conditions related to diabetes mellitus and poorer ventricular function. • Conclusions Risk of heart failure, recurrent myocardial infarction, and mortality is elevated in elderly patients who have non–insulin- or insulin-treated diabetes mellitus. Comorbid conditions related to diabetes mellitus and ventricular function at the time of the index myocardial infarction are important contributors to poorer outcomes in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Background: The effect of hyperglycemia on outcomes in patients with acute MI (AMI) and low LVEF without diabetes mellitus is not well known. Methods: In the EPHESUS trial, of the 4411 non-DM patients, 554 had baseline hyperglycemia (≥140 mg/dL). Propensity scores for hyperglycemia were calculated for each of the 4411 patients based on 63 baseline covariates, and a greedy 1:8 matching protocol was used to match 400 and 2542 patients respectively with and without hyperglycemia. Matched Cox regression models were used to estimate associations between hyperglycemia and outcomes during 16 months of follow up. Results: Patients with hyperglycemia were more likely to be older, have higher heart rate, lower LVEF, and receive nitrates, statins, digoxin, loop diuretics, and PTCA during index admission. Unadjusted hazard ratios {HR} and 95% confidence intervals {CI} for hyperglycemia were: all-cause death (1.51; 1.22–1.87; P<0.001), cardiovascular (CV) death (1.52; 1.21–1.90; P<0.001), heart failure (HF) death (2.19, 1.46–3.29; P<0.001), all-cause hospitalization (1.23; 1.08–1.40; P=0.002), CV hospitalization (1.51, 1.24–1.84; P<0.001) and HF hospitalization (1.75; 1.37–2.25; P<0.001). In the matched cohort, hyperglycemia was significantly associated with CV death (HR=1.25, 95%CI=1.01–1.54; P=0.039), sudden cardiac death (HR=1.33; 95%CI=1.02–1.73, P=0.035) and fatal/nonfatal AMI (HR=1.53, 95%CI=1.07–2.19; P=0.04; Figure ). Conclusions: In non-diabetic post-AMI HF patients, hyperglycemia is a poor prognosticator and is associated with increased risk of fatal and non-fatal AMI, CV death, HF deaths, sudden cardiac death, and CV hospitalization.

There is a clear link between diabetes and cardiovascular disease. It is known that cardiovascular diseases in patients with diabetes mellitus occur 2–5 times more often than in people without diabetes. It is cardiovascular outcomes that are the main cause of death in patients with diabetes mellitus in both men and women. Diabetes mellitus has a high risk of coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, arterial hypertension and acute cerebrovascular accident, and patients with diabetes mellitus may experience painless acute myocardial infarction associated with the presence of autonomic cardiac neuropathy. Various rhythm disturbances are much more common in diabetes mellitus, including paroxysmal forms of atrial fibrillation, which increase the risk of death by 1.8–2 times. The leading factor in the development of vascular complications of diabetes mellitus is hyperglycemia. In addition, early glycemic disorders - impaired glucose tolerance or impaired fasting glycemia - make a significant contribution to the increased risk of macrovascular complications. Improving glycemic control leads to a significant reduction in the risk of late macro- and microvascular complications of diabetes mellitus. Glycated hemoglobin is the gold standard for monitoring glycemic control, but it does not provide complete information on daily and intraday changes in glucose levels. Regular self-monitoring of glucose levels is important in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases in patients with diabetes mellitus. In addition, during the COVID-19 pandemic, all consensus documents and recommendations for the management of patients with diabetes indicate the need for regular monitoring of glucose levels. An important aspect of the technical impact on patients’ adherence to selfcontrol and diabetes therapy is the presence of a convenient communicative connection between the patient and the doctor, in particular, the possibility of contact remotely via a computer and a mobile phone. In conclusion, the possibilities of the new model of the line of blood glucose meters are considered.

Abstract Introduction After percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), patients with diabetes have a worse prognosis than non-diabetics and are at increased risk of recurrent cardiovascular events, hospitalization and higher mortality. Purpose The aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in this high-risk group of patients. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study of 318 consecutive patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) who underwent PCI in our hospital between 2004 and 2011. We classified the patients in two cohorts according to their participation (n=154) or not (n=164) in a CR programme. We collected the events ocurring during a median follow-up of 9 years. Results Using multivariate logistic regression, we found that CR participation was associated with significantly reduced all-cause mortality (53% vs 23%, OR 2.10; IC 95%; 1.16–3.82; p 0.014) and cardiac mortality (3.9% vs 23.8%, OR 8.69; IC95% 2.80–26.99; p<0.0005). CR aslo associated with a singnificant decrease in a heart failure hospitalization (26.6% vs 10.6%, OR 2.4; IC 95% 1.06–5.52; p<0.035). No significant differences were observed in non fatal myocardial infarction, stent restenosis and non fatal stroke. Basal characteristics Rehabilitation (n=153) No Rehabilitation (n=164) P vaule Male sex 138 (86.4%) 100 (61.0%) <0.0005 Age (years) 59 (38–74) 65 (47–74) <0.0005 Hypertension 113 (73.9%) 111 (67.7%) NS Hypercholesterolemia 112 (73.7%) 115 (70.1%) NS HbA1c ≥7% 88 (66.2%) 73 (64.6%) NS Prior myocardial infarction 24 (15.6%) 32 (19.5%) NS Chronic kidney disease 6 (3.9%) 19 (11.6%) 0.012 FEVI <50% 30 (20%) 39 (25%) NS Three vessel disease 53 (34.4%) 58 (35.4%) NS Incomplete revascularization 80 (51.9%) 81 (49.4%) NS Drug-eluting stent 110 (78.6%) 127 (80.4%) NS Stent length 22.4±11.9 24.6±14.8 NS Stent diameter 2.7±0.3 2.8±0.4 NS Conclusion CR participation after PCI is associated with lower all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality and heart failure hospitalization rates in patients with DM2 during long-term follow-up.
