High proportion of undiagnosed diabetes in patients surgically treated for infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm: findings from the multicentre Norwegian Aortic Aneurysm and Diabetes (ABANDIA) Study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:333. [PMID: 39252002 PMCID: PMC11386390 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02421-w] [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: 06/22/2024] [Accepted: 08/23/2024] [Indexed: 09/11/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim was to investigate the total prevalence of known and undiagnosed diabetes mellitus (DM), and the association of DM with perioperative complications following elective, infrarenal, open surgical (OSR) or endovascular (EVAR), Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) repair. METHODS In this Norwegian prospective multicentre study, 877 patients underwent preoperative screening for DM by HbA1c measurements from November 2017 to December 2020. Diabetes was defined as screening detected HbA1c ≥ 48 mmol/mol (6.5%) or previously diagnosed diabetes. The association of DM with in-hospital complications, length of stay, and 30-day mortality rate were evaluated using adjusted and unadjusted logistic regression models. RESULTS The total prevalence of DM was 15% (95% CI 13%,17%), of which 25% of the DM cases (95% CI 18%,33%) were undiagnosed upon admission for AAA surgery. The OSR to EVAR ratio was 52% versus 48%, with similar distribution among DM patients, and no differences in the prevalence of known and undiagnosed DM in the EVAR versus the OSR group. Total 30-day mortality rate was 0.6% (5/877). Sixty-six organ-related complications occurred in 58 (7%) of the patients. DM was not statistically significantly associated with a higher risk of in-hospital organ-related complications (OR 1.23, 95% CI 0.57,2.39, p = 0.57), procedure-related complications (OR 1.48, 95% CI 0.79,2.63, p = 0.20), 30-day mortality (p = 0.09) or length of stay (HR 1.06, 95% CI 0.88,1.28, p = 0.54). According to post-hoc-analyses, organ-related complications were more frequent in patients with newly diagnosed DM (n = 32) than in non-DM patients (OR 4.92; 95% CI 1.53,14.3, p = 0.005). CONCLUSION Twenty-five percent of all DM cases were undiagnosed at the time of AAA surgery. Based on post-hoc analyses, undiagnosed DM seems to be associated with an increased risk of organ related complications following AAA surgery. This study suggests universal DM screening in AAA patients to reduce the number of DM patients being undiagnosed and to improve proactive diabetes care in this population. The results from post-hoc analyses should be confirmed in future studies.

Abstract
Diabetes is a metabolic disease that may result in multiple microvascular and macrovascular diseases. Interestingly, many studies have demonstrated the inverse relationship between diabetes and the development and expansion of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). One hypothesis is that the aortic wall stiffness resulting from hyperglycemia and advanced glycation end products could delay the development and growth of AAA. Other studies have proposed that the concurrent use of antidiabetic medications which promote anti-inflammatory cytokines while hindering pro-inflammatory cytokines may potentially be the reason for this protective effect of diabetes on AAA. Contrastingly, the presence of diabetes has been found to have a negative effect on the outcome of AAA following its repair which may be due to elevated blood glucose negatively affecting the healing process. The current literature has also demonstrated the negative impact of the use of fluoroquinolones on AAA. This comprehensive review critically reviewed and summarized the role of diabetes, anti-diabetes medications and fluoroquinolones on AAA, and on the effect of diabetes and certain anti-diabetes medications on outcomes following its repair.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative hospital length of stay (LOS) is longer in patients with diabetes than in patients without diabetes. Stress hyperglycemia (SH) in patients without a history of diabetes has been associated with adverse postoperative outcomes. The effect of SH on postoperative LOS is uncertain. The aim of this study is to compare postoperative LOS in patients with SH to patients with diabetic hyperglycemia (DH) following noncardiac surgery. METHODS We carried out a retrospective cohort study of inpatients with at least two glucose measurements ≥180 mg/dL. Two groups were compared. Patients with SH had no preoperative history of diabetes. Patients were considered to have DH if they had an established preoperative diagnosis of diabetes mellitus or a preoperative hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥6.5%. The primary outcome measure was hospital LOS. RESULTS We included 270 patients with postoperative hyperglycemia-82 in the SH group and 188 in the DH group. In a linear regression analysis, hospital LOS was longer in the SH group than in the DH group (10.4 vs 7.3 days; P = .03). Within the SH group, we found no association between LOS and prompt treatment of hyperglycemia within 12 hours (P = .43), insulin dose per day (P = .89), or overall mean glucose (P = .13). CONCLUSIONS Postoperative LOS was even longer in patients with SH than in patients with DH, representing a potential target for quality improvement efforts. We did not, however, find evidence that improved treatment of SH was associated with reduction in LOS.

Abstract
Patients that require major vascular surgery suffer from widespread atherosclerosis and have multiple comorbidities that place them at increased risk for postoperative complications and require admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Postoperative critical care of these patients is focused on hemodynamic optimization, and early identification and management of complications to improve outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diabetes mellitus (DM) has been proved to contribute to multiple comorbidities that are risk factors for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Remarkably, evidences from epidemiologic studies have demonstrated a negative association between the two disease states. On the other hand, hyperglycemic state was linked to post-operative morbidities following AAA repair. This review aims to provide a thorough picture on the double-edged nature of DM and major hypoglycemic medications on prevalence, growth rate and rupture of AAA, as well as DM-associated prognosis post AAA repair. METHODS We performed a comprehensive search in electronic databases to look for literatures demonstrating the association between DM and AAA. The primary focus of the literature search was on the impact of DM on the morbidity, enlargement and rupture rate, as well as post-operative complications of AAA. The role of antidiabetic medications was also explored. RESULTS Retrospective epidemiological studies and large database researches associated the presence of DM with decreased prevalence, slower expansion and limited rupture rate of AAA. Major hypoglycemic drugs exert similar protective effect as DM against AAA by targeting pathological hallmarks involved in AAA formation and progression, which were demonstrated predominantly by animal studies. Nevertheless, presence of DM or postoperative hyperglycemia was linked to poorer short-term and long-term prognosis, primarily due to greater risk of infection, longer duration of hospital stays and death. CONCLUSION While DM is a positive factor in the formation and progression of AAA, it is also associated with higher risk of negative outcomes following AAA repair. Concomitant use of antidiabetic medications may contribute to the protective mechanism of DM in AAA, but further studies are still warranted to explore their role following AAA repair.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Limited data exist evaluating pre-operative hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in patients undergoing vascular procedures for peripheral arterial disease (PAD). This study evaluated the relationship of preoperative HbA1c on outcomes after open and endovascular lower extremity (LE) vascular procedures for PAD. METHODS We selected patients with PAD admitted for elective LE procedures between September 2008 and December 2015 from the Cerner Health Facts® database using ICD-9-CM diagnosis and procedure codes. Bivariable analysis and multivariable logistic models examined the association of patient characteristics, procedure type, and preoperative HbA1c (normal < 6.5%, high ≥ 6.5%) with postsurgical outcomes that included infection, renal failure, respiratory or cardiac complications, length of stay (LOS), in-hospital mortality, and readmission. RESULTS Of 4,087 patients who underwent a LE vascular procedure for PAD, 2,462 (60.2%) had a preoperative HbA1c recorded. The cohort was mostly male (60%), white (73%), and underwent endovascular intervention (77%). Patients with high HbA1c levels were more likely of black race (p < .02) and had significantly higher comorbidities (p < .0001). Elevated HbA1c was associated with diabetes (p < .0001) and cellulitis (p = .05) on unadjusted analysis. Multivariable logistic regression (adjusting for patient, hospital, comorbidity and procedural characteristics) revealed that elevated HbA1c was significantly associated with 30-day readmission (OR = 1.06, 95% CI = 1.00-1.12), but was not associated with the other outcomes. An independent diagnosis of diabetes was not predictive of complications or readmission. CONCLUSIONS Historic glucose control, as evidenced by a high preoperative HbA1c level, is not associated with adverse outcome, other than readmission, in patients undergoing LE procedures for PAD. Given the known association of high perioperative glucose levels with poor outcome following vascular procedures, this is suggestive of a more important effect of perioperative, as opposed to chronic, glucose control upon outcome. Thus, we suggest focusing efforts on creating standardized goal-directed guidelines for glucose control in the perioperative period for LE vascular procedures to potentially mitigate complications.

Abstract
Objective There are limited data evaluating the impact of postoperative hyperglycemia in patients undergoing vascular procedures. This study evaluated the relationship between suboptimal glucose control and adverse outcomes after carotid artery stenting and carotid endarterectomy. Methods Patients admitted for elective carotid procedures were selected from the Cerner Health Facts® (2008–2015) database using ICD-9-CM diagnosis and procedure codes. We examined the relationship between patient characteristics, postoperative hyperglycemia (any value > 180 mg/dL), and complications with chi-square analysis. A multivariable model examined the association between patient characteristics, procedure type, and glucose control with infection, renal failure, stroke, respiratory and cardiac complications, and length of stay over 10 days. Results Of the 4287 patients admitted for an asymptomatic carotid procedure, 788 (18%) underwent carotid artery stenting and 3499 (82%) underwent carotid endarterectomy. Most patients (87%) had optimal postoperative glucose control (80–180 mg/dL); 13% had suboptimal glucose control. On average, patients with suboptimal glucose control experienced: higher stroke rates (6.2% vs. 2.7%; p < 0.001); more cardiac complications (5.1% vs. 2.0%; p < 0.001); longer hospital stays (3.1 vs. 1.8 days; p < .001); higher rates of post-procedure infection (4.0% vs. 1.8%; p = .001); and more complications than patients with optimal glucose control. Multivariable logistic regression demonstrated that patients with suboptimal glucose control had higher odds of having an infectious (pneumonia, cellulitis, surgical site, etc.) complication (OR 1.91, 95% CI 1.10–3.34), renal failure (OR 3.36, 95% CI 1.95–5.78), respiratory complications (OR 1.81, 95% CI 1.21–2.71), stroke (OR 1.82, 95% CI 1.15–2.88), or length of stay > 10 days (OR 4.07, 95% CI 2.02–8.20). Conclusions Suboptimal glucose control was associated with adverse events after carotid artery stenting and carotid endarterectomy, independent of a diabetes diagnosis. Several adverse outcomes were associated with hyperglycemia, including stroke. Given the singular role of carotid procedures in preventing stroke, we suggest that incorporating rigorous post-operative glucose control into best medical treatment of carotid disease should be considered as a standard practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abnormalities in glucose metabolism are common in patients with arterial disease. Chronic hyperglycemia and insulin resistance contribute to the complexity of vascular disorders. They also overlap with the effects of perioperative hyperglycemia on adverse perioperative outcomes. We provide an overview of the pathophysiologic consequences of dysglycemia and the evidence behind glycemic control in patients undergoing vascular surgery. METHODS We searched the literature for major studies evaluating the pathophysiology of hyperglycemia in microvascular and macrovascular beds, randomized trials in perioperative populations, and meta-analyses. The literature was summarized to guide therapy in the population of vascular patients and for the perioperative period. RESULTS National standards for glycemic control after vascular interventions were not identified. Mounting evidence exists for the long-term consequences of poor glycemic control on the progression of vascular disease. Similarly, there is a large body of evidence supporting tight control of hyperglycemia after general and cardiac surgery during the critical perioperative period. The absolute glucose target remains controversial. Randomized controlled studies are lacking in vascular surgery patients, but the current evidence can be extrapolated to guide management after vascular interventions. Glycated hemoglobin is a biomarker for increased mortality and vascular morbidity after vascular surgery. CONCLUSIONS Hyperglycemia contributes to poor outcome in the vascular patient. Further vascular focused studies are required to determine the proper perioperative serum glucose target and the long-term glycated hemoglobin range.

Abstract
Even though diabetes mellitus is a major risk for cardiovascular events and atherosclerosis-related diseases, it is negatively associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm. The understanding of the mechanisms underlying this negative association could bring new insights to identify prognostic and therapeutic targets. Here we summarize current knowledge of the relationship between glycemic parameters and clinical outcomes of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm. Translational applications of glucose-targeted approaches as well as their potential interest for clinical practice are discussed in this context.
