Li K, Yang X, Li Y, Xu G, Ma Y. Relationship between stress hyperglycaemic ratio and incidence of in-hospital cardiac arrest in patients with acute coronary syndrome: a retrospective cohort study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:59. [PMID: 38336786 PMCID: PMC10858560 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02128-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The stress hyperglycaemic ratio (SHR), a new marker that reflects the true hyperglycaemic state of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), is strongly associated with adverse clinical outcomes in these patients. Studies on the relationship between the SHR and in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) incidence are limited. This study elucidated the relationship between the SHR and incidence of IHCA in patients with ACS. METHODS In total, 1,939 patients with ACS who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University were included. They were divided into three groups according to the SHR: group T1 (SHR ≤ 0.838, N = 646), group T2 (0.838< SHR ≤ 1.140, N = 646), and group T3 (SHR3 > 1.140, N = 647). The primary endpoint was IHCA incidence. RESULTS The overall IHCA incidence was 4.1% (N = 80). After adjusting for covariates, SHR was significantly associated with IHCA incidence in patients with ACS who underwent PCI (odds ratio [OR] = 2.6800; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.6200-4.4300; p<0.001), and compared with the T1 group, the T3 group had an increased IHCA risk (OR = 2.1800; 95% CI = 1.2100-3.9300; p = 0.0090). In subgroup analyses, after adjusting for covariates, patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (OR = 3.0700; 95% CI = 1.4100-6.6600; p = 0.0050) and non-STEMI (NSTEMI) (OR = 2.9900; 95% CI = 1.1000-8.1100; p = 0.0310) were at an increased IHCA risk. After adjusting for covariates, IHCA risk was higher in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) (OR = 2.5900; 95% CI = 1.4200-4.7300; p = 0.0020) and those without DM (non-DM) (OR = 3.3000; 95% CI = 1.2700-8.5800; p = 0.0140); patients with DM in the T3 group had an increased IHCA risk compared with those in the T1 group (OR = 2.4200; 95% CI = 1.0800-5.4300; p = 0.0320). The restriction cubic spline (RCS) analyses revealed a dose-response relationship between IHCA incidence and SHR, with an increased IHCA risk when SHR was higher than 1.773. Adding SHR to the baseline risk model improved the predictive value of IHCA in patients with ACS treated with PCI (net reclassification improvement [NRI]: 0.0734 [0.0058-0.1409], p = 0.0332; integrated discrimination improvement [IDI]: 0.0218 [0.0063-0.0374], p = 0.0060). CONCLUSIONS In patients with ACS treated with PCI, the SHR was significantly associated with the incidence of IHCA. The SHR may be a useful predictor of the incidence of IHCA in patients with ACS. The addition of the SHR to the baseline risk model had an incremental effect on the predictive value of IHCA in patients with ACS treated with PCI.

Stress hyperglycemia ratio: an independent predictor for in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in patients with st-segment elevation myocardial infarction. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:195.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To assess the predictive accuracy of the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) for in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS A total of 1,944 patients were enrolled within 24 h of a new STEMI diagnosis. The SHR was obtained by dividing the blood glucose level at admission by the estimated average glucose. MACCE were defined as acute cerebral infarction, mechanical complications of myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, and all-cause death. Patients were then categorized into the MACCE and non-MACCE groups according to the occurrence of in-hospital MACCE. Propensity score matching was used to balance confounding factors, and logistic regression was used to identify the potential predictive factors for MACCE. RESULTS A total of 276 patients were included after 1:1 matching, and the confounding factors were balanced between the two groups. The SHR was an independent predictor of in-hospital MACCE (odds ratio = 10.06, 95% confidence interval: 4.16-27.64, P < 0.001), while blood glucose at admission was not. The SHR was also an independent predictor for in-hospital MACCE in nondiabetic patients with STEMI (odds ratio = 11.26, 95% confidence interval: 3.05-55.21, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION SHR is an independent predictor of in-hospital MACCE in patients with acute STEMI, especially in nondiabetic patients.

Glycaemic Control in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: What Is the Role for the Novel Antidiabetic Agents? A Comprehensive Review of Basic Science and Clinical Data. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23137261. [PMID: 35806265 PMCID: PMC9266811 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23137261] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Revised: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 06/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Coronary artery disease (CAD) remains one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and revascularization through percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) significantly improves survival. In this setting, poor glycaemic control, regardless of diabetes, has been associated with increased incidence of peri-procedural and long-term complications and worse prognosis. Novel antidiabetic agents have represented a paradigm shift in managing patients with diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. However, limited data are reported so far in patients undergoing coronary stenting. This review intends to provide an overview of the biological mechanisms underlying hyperglycaemia-induced vascular damage and the contrasting actions of new antidiabetic drugs. We summarize existing evidence on the effects of these drugs in the setting of PCI, addressing pre-clinical and clinical studies and drug-drug interactions with antiplatelet agents, thus highlighting new opportunities for optimal long-term management of these patients.

Elevated stress hyperglycemia and the presence of intracranial artery stenosis increase the risk of recurrent stroke. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2022; 13:954916. [PMID: 36699024 PMCID: PMC9868694 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.954916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2022] [Accepted: 12/12/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress hyperglycemia has served as a reliable biomarker to predict poor outcomes after ischemic stroke. However, recent studies have reported some contrary conclusions. Different stroke subtypes may respond inconsistently to stress hyperglycemia. The progression of intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) is tightly related to hyperglycemia. Thus, this study aims to determine the relationship between stress hyperglycemia and recurrent stroke in ischemic stroke patients with or without intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis. METHODS This is a multicenter retrospective observational cohort study. Patients with acute minor ischemic stroke and eligible computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging data were enrolled. The severity of stress hyperglycemia is measured by the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR). SHR was calculated based on fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels. The primary outcome was stroke recurrence during hospitalization. The interaction of SHR levels with the presence of ICAS on the primary outcome was investigated using univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazards models. Restricted cubic splines were applied to determine the nonlinear relationship between SHR and primary outcome. A two-piecewise linear regression model was used to identify the threshold of SHR. RESULTS A total of 610 participants were included in the study. The average age of the patients was 61.4 ± 12.9 years old, and approximately 70% of participants were males. A total of 189 (30.98%) patients had ICAS. The patients were categorized into 3 groups based on the tertiles of SHR. Compared with the group with a lower SHR, a higher SHR was significantly associated with the risk of stroke recurrence in the ICAS group (hazard ratio [HR], 8.52, 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.16-22.96, P<0.001). When SHR was treated as a continuous variable, each 0.1-unit increase in SHR in the ICAS group was associated with a 1.63-fold increase in the risk of recurrence (HR, 1.63, 95% CI, 1.39-1.9, P<0.001) with a threshold of 0.75. FPG but not HbA1c was associated with stroke recurrence in ICAS patients (HR, 1.17, 95% CI, 1.08-1.26, P<0.001). Sensitive analyses showed consistent results after adjusting for previous diabetes mellitus, oral hypoglycemic agents and insulin injection. CONCLUSIONS SHR represents a better biomarker to predict the risk of stroke recurrence in patients with ICAS than FPG and HbA1c regardless of previous diabetes mellitus.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:698725. [PMID: 34355031 PMCID: PMC8329087 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.698725] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2021] [Accepted: 06/25/2021] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Backgrounds: Emerging evidence suggests that stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR), an index of relative stress hyperglycemia, is of great prognostic value in acute myocardial infarction (AMI), but current evidence is limited in elderly patients. In this study, we aimed to assess whether SHR is associated with in-hospital outcomes in elderly patients with AMI. Methods: In this retrospective study, patients who were aged over 75 years and diagnosed with AMI were consecutively enrolled from 2015, January 1st to 2019, December 31th. Admission blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C) during the index hospitalization were used to calculate SHR. Restricted quadratic splines, receiver-operating curves, and logistic regression were performed to evaluate the association between SHR and in-hospital outcomes, including in-hospital all-cause death and in-hospital major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) defined as a composite of all-cause death, cardiogenic shock, reinfarction, mechanical complications of MI, stroke, and major bleeding. Results: A total of 341 subjects were included in this study. Higher SHR levels were observed in patients who had MACCEs (n = 69) or death (n = 44) during hospitalization. Compared with a SHR value below 1.25, a high SHR was independently associated with in-hospital MACCEs (odds ratio [OR]: 2.945, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.626–5.334, P < 0.001) and all-cause death (OR: 2.871 95% CI: 1.428–5.772, P = 0.003) in univariate and multivariate logisitic analysis. This relationship increased with SHR levels based on a non-linear dose-response curve. In contrast, admission glucose was only associated with clinical outcomes in univariate analysis. In subgroup analysis, high SHR was significantly predictive of worse in-hospital clinical outcomes in non-diabetic patients (MACCEs: 2.716 [1.281–5.762], P = 0.009; all-cause death: 2.394 [1.040–5.507], P = 0.040), but the association was not significant in diabetic patients. Conclusion: SHR might serve as a simple and independent indicator of adverse in-hospital outcomes in elderly patients with AMI, especially in non-diabetic population.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Coronary artery bypass grafting has been widely admitted in the therapeutic arsenal of coronary artery disease in diabetics with low morbi-mortality. However, it requires special management which may be challenging in low-volume centers especially in African countries. We aimed to analyze the outcome of coronary artery bypass graft in our diabetic population and define predictors of adverse events.
Patients and methods
We retrospectively enrolled 529 consecutive diabetic patients (type 2) who underwent on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting at our institution between January 2000 and June 2018. The mean age was 61.1 ± 8.3 years with 4.04 as sex ratio (M/F) and 2.95 as mean EuroSCORE II. History of acute myocardial infarction, left main coronary artery stenosis, and three-vessel disease was present in respectively 58%, 26.1%, and 72.2% of patients. The average number of bypass was 2.4 ± 0.8. Duration of cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic cross-clamping were respectively 124.8 ± 43.5 and 79.7 ± 32.9 min.
Results
In-hospital mortality was 5.9% (n = 31) and the late mortality was 6.9% (n = 32). Duration of artificial ventilation, ICU stay, and postoperative stay were respectively 7 h, 44 h, and 13 days. Postoperative complications were myocardial infarction, superficial wound infection, mediastinitis, and low cardiac output syndrome in respectively 9.1%, 25.5%, 3.8%, and 12.7% of patients. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that left ventricular ejection fraction < 40% (OR = 1.88; 95% CI 1.30–2.47; p = 0.03), poor perioperative glycemic control (OR = 1.53; 95% CI 1.12–2.38; p = 0.014), intra-aortic balloon pump insertion (OR = 2.29; 95% CI 1.47–3.10; p < 0.001), and postoperative cardiac complications (OR = 2.01; 95% CI 1.23–2.78; p < 0.001) were predictors of in-hospital mortality. Predictors of mediastinitis were obesity (OR = 5.86; 95% CI 1.43–23.95; p = 0.014), inotropic drugs use (OR = 8.14; 95% CI 1.57–42.34; p = 0.013), chest reopening for bleeding (OR = 4.01; 95% CI 0.62–25.85; p = 0.014), and blood transfusion (OR = 7.56; 95% CI 1.09–52.76; p = 0.041). Follow-up was 86.1% complete, with a mean follow-up of 63.5 ± 48.3 months (1–192 months), and cumulative survival at 5, 10, and 15 years was respectively 95.5 ± 1.1%, 86.3 ± 2.9%, and 76.9 ± 6.9%.
Conclusion
Even in low-volume centers in developing areas, coronary artery bypass surgery is an effective therapy for coronary artery disease in diabetic patients despite a relative high morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
The review discusses myocardial revascularization in patients with coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes. The data presented include findings from recent research and international and national recommendations and provides evidence on the advantages of coronary artery bypass surgery over percutaneous coronary intervention for patients with diabetes mellitus, stable coronary artery disease and multiple coronary artery lesions. Type 2 diabetes remains a significant predictor of adverse long-term outcomes of coronary artery bypass surgery. Therefore, we review studies showing that different strategies of coronary revascularization and preoperative preparation can affect the results of coronary intervention in patients with diabetes.

Abstract
Acute hyperglycemia is a frequent finding in patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The prognostic role of hyperglycemia in diabetic patients with AMI remains controversial. We retrospectively reviewed patients' medical records to obtain demographic data, clinical presentation, major adverse cardiac events (MACEs), several clinical scores and laboratory data, including the plasma glucose level at initial presentation and HbA1c levels. The glycemic gap, which represents changes in serum glucose levels during the index event, was calculated from the glucose level upon ED admission minus the HbA1c-derived average glucose (ADAG). We enrolled 331 patients after the review of medical records. An elevated glycemic gap between admission serum glucose levels and ADAG were associated with an increased risk of mortality in patients. The glycemic gap showed superior discriminative power regarding the development of MACEs when compared with the admission glucose level. The calculation of the glycemic gap may increase the discriminative powers of established clinical scoring systems in diabetic patients presenting to the ED with AMI. In conclusion, the glycemic gap could be used as an adjunct parameter to assess the severity and prognosis of diabetic patients presenting with AMI. However, the usefulness of the glycemic gap should be further explored in prospective longitudinal studies.
