Vasa D, Rossitto CP, Ezzat B, Bazil M, Schuldt B, Johnson B, Ali M, Mocco J, Kellner CP. Stress hyperglycemia is associated with longer ICU length of stay after endoscopic intracerebral hemorrhage evacuation. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2024; 33:107911. [PMID: 39097120 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2024.107911] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2024] [Revised: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress hyperglycemia has been linked to poor outcomes in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Recent studies using the ratio of blood glucose to glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) as a marker for stress hyperglycemia have demonstrated greater discriminative power in predicting poor outcomes for stroke inpatients compared to blood glucose alone. Therefore, we aimed to investigate whether the preoperative glucose-to-HbA1c ratio is a predictor of postoperative outcomes in patients who have undergone minimally invasive ICH evacuation. METHODS Retrospective chart review was performed on ICH patients treated with minimally invasive surgery (MIS) in a single health system from 2015 to 2022. Stress hyperglycemia was defined as preoperative glucose-to-HbA1c ratio > calculated-median. Postoperative outcomes including modified Rankin Score (mRS) and length of stay (LOS) were collected. Univariate analyses were conducted to determine associations. Variables with p<0.05 were included in multivariate analyses. RESULTS Of 192 patients who underwent minimally invasive ICH evacuation and had available glucose data, 96 demonstrated stress hyperglycemia (glucose-to-HbA1c ratio > 1.23). Patients with stress hyperglycemia were more likely to have a history of diabetes (43 % vs. 27 %, p=0.034), IVH (54 % vs. 33 %, p=0.007), higher preoperative hematoma volumes (46.8 ml vs. 38.6 mL, p=0.02), higher postoperative hematoma volumes (6 ml vs. 2.9 mL, p=0.008), smaller evacuation percentages (86.7 % vs. 92.7 %, p=0.048), longer procedure lengths (2.78 hrs vs. 2.23 hrs, p=0.015), and prolonged ICU LOS (9.44 days vs. 5.68 days, p=0.003). In a multivariate analysis, stress hyperglycemia remained predictive of prolonged ICU LOS (OR=2.44; p=0.026) when controlling for initial NIHSS, IVH, time to evacuation, procedure time, and diabetes. CONCLUSIONS Stress hyperglycemia was strongly associated with prolonged ICU LOS after MIS for ICH. Understanding factors associated with LOS may provide predictive value for a patient's hospital course after minimally invasive ICH evacuation and further guide clinician expectations of recovery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Relative dysglycemia has been proposed as a clinical entity among critically ill patients in the ICU, but is not well studied. This study aimed to clarify associations of relative hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia during the first 24 hours after ICU admission with in-hospital mortality and the respective thresholds. DESIGN A single-center retrospective study. SETTING An urban tertiary hospital ICU. PATIENTS Adult critically ill patients admitted urgently between January 2016 and March 2022. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Maximum and minimum glycemic ratio (GR) was defined as maximum and minimum blood glucose values during the first 24 hours after ICU admission divided by hemoglobin A1c-derived average glucose, respectively. Of 1700 patients included, in-hospital mortality was 16.9%. Nonsurvivors had a higher maximum GR, with no significant difference in minimum GR. Maximum GR during the first 24 hours after ICU admission showed a J-shaped association with in-hospital mortality, and a mortality trough at a maximum GR of approximately 1.12; threshold for increased adjusted odds ratio for mortality was 1.25. Minimum GR during the first 24 hours after ICU admission showed a U-shaped relationship with in-hospital mortality and a mortality trough at a minimum GR of approximately 0.81 with a lower threshold for increased adjusted odds ratio for mortality at 0.69. CONCLUSIONS Mortality significantly increased when GR during the first 24 hours after ICU admission deviated from between 0.69 and 1.25. Further evaluation will necessarily validate the superiority of personalized glycemic management over conventional management.

Association Between Individualized Versus Conventional Blood Glucose Thresholds and Acute Kidney Injury After Cardiac Surgery: A Retrospective Observational Study. J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth 2024; 38:1957-1964.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study was designed to compare individualized and conventional hyperglycemic thresholds for the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery. DESIGN This was an observational study. SETTING The study took place in a single-center tertiary teaching hospital. PARTICIPANTS Adult patients who underwent cardiac surgery between January 2012 and November 2021 were enrolled. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Two blood glucose thresholds were used to define intraoperative hyperglycemia. While the conventional hyperglycemic threshold (CHT) was 180 mg/dL in all patients, the individualized hyperglycemic threshold (IHT) was calculated based on the preoperative hemoglobin A1c level. Various metrics of intraoperative hyperglycemia were calculated using both thresholds: any hyperglycemic episode, duration of hyperglycemia, and area above the thresholds. Postoperative AKI associations were compared using receiver operating characteristic curves and logistic regression analysis. Among the 2,427 patients analyzed, 823 (33.9%) developed AKI. The C-statistics of IHT-defined metrics (0.58-0.59) were significantly higher than those of the CHT-defined metrics (all C-statistics, 0.54; all p < 0.001). The duration of hyperglycemia (adjusted odds ratio, 1.09; 95% confidence interval, 1.02-1.16) and area above the IHT (1.003; 1.001-1.004) were significantly associated with the risk of AKI, except for the presence of any hyperglycemic episode. None of the CHT-defined metrics were significantly associated with the risk of AKI. CONCLUSIONS Individually defined intraoperative hyperglycemia better predicted postcardiac surgery AKI than universally defined hyperglycemia. Intraoperative hyperglycemia was significantly associated with the risk of AKI only for the IHT. Target blood glucose levels in cardiac surgical patients may need to be individualized based on preoperative glycemic status.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the relationship between the stress-hyperglycaemia ratio (SHR) and the clinical prognosis of patients with moderate-to-severe coronary artery calcification (MSCAC). METHODS We consecutively enrolled 3841 patients with angiography-detected MSCAC. The individuals were categorized into three groups based on SHR tertiles: T1 (SHR ≤ 0.77), T2 (0.77 < SHR ≤ 0.89) and T3 (SHR > 0.89). The SHR value was calculated using the formula SHR = [admission glucose (mmol/L)]/[1.59 × HbA1c (%) - 2.59]. The primary outcomes were major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs), including all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction and non-fatal stroke. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 3.11 years, 241 MACCEs were recorded. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the SHR T3 group had the highest incidence of MACCEs (P < .001). Moreover, findings from the restricted cubic spline analysis showed a significant and positive association between the SHR and MACCEs. This correlation remained consistent even after considering other variables that could potentially impact the results (Pnon-linear = .794). When comparing SHR T1 with SHR T3, it was found that SHR T3 was significantly associated with an increased risk of the primary outcome (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.50; 95% confidence interval: 1.10-2.03). CONCLUSIONS Patients with MSCAC showed a positive correlation between the SHR and MACCE rate over a 3-year follow-up period. The study showed that an SHR value of 0.83 is the key threshold, indicating a poor prognosis. Future large-scale multicentre investigations should be conducted to determine the predictive value of the SHR in patients with MSCAC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a significant health issue among the elderly, with severe cases (SCAP) having high mortality rates. This study assesses the predictive significance of the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) in elderly SCAP patients and its impact on outcomes in both diabetic and non-diabetic patients. METHODS AND MATERIALS This retrospective study included 406 SCAP patients aged 65 or older from the Second People's Hospital of Lianyungang (January 2020 to December 2023). Data collected included demographics, medical history, vital signs, and lab results. SHR was calculated from initial blood glucose and estimated average glucose (HbA1c). Statistical analyses, including Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier analysis, evaluated SHR's impact on mortality. Mediation models explored the effects of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and SHR. RESULTS The 28-day mortality rate was 21.67%. Deceased patients had higher age, Charlson Comorbidity Index, procalcitonin, NLR, glucose, and SHR levels compared to survivors (P < 0.05). Both SHR and NLR significantly increased mortality risk, particularly in non-diabetic patients. Combining NLR and SHR improved ROC AUC to 0.898, with 89.80% sensitivity and 81.10% specificity. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed higher cumulative survival for SHR < 1.14, regardless of diabetes status (P < 0.05). NLR mediated 13.02% of the SHR-survival relationship, while SHR mediated 14.06% of the NLR-survival relationship. CONCLUSION Elevated SHR is a significant mortality risk factor in elderly SCAP patients, independent of diabetes status. Stringent glucose control and careful monitoring of SHR may improve outcomes in elderly patients with acute respiratory conditions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the association between stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and poor functional outcomes at 90 days in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). METHODS This study retrospectively collected 1988 AIS patients admitted to two hospitals in the Shenzhen area between January 2022 and March 2023. A total of 1255 patients with Fasting Blood-glucose (FBG) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1C) values at admission were included in this analysis. SHR, measured by FBG/HbA1C, was evaluated as both a tri-categorical variable (Tertile 1: ≤ 0.83; Tertile 2: 0.84 -0.95; Tertile 3: ≥ 0.96). The outcome was poor functional outcomes (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] score 2-6) at 90 days. We performed univariate analysis, multiple equation regression analysis, stratified analysis, and interactive analysis. RESULTS Compared with patients in the lowest tertile of SHR, the highest tertile group had significantly lower odds of achieving poor functional outcomes (adjusted odds ratio, OR = 2.84, 95% CI: 2.02-3.99, P < 0.0001) at 90 days after adjusting for potential covariates. Similar results were observed after further adjustment for white blood cell count, neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, fasting blood glucose, stroke type, intravenous thrombolytic therapy, baseline Glasgow score, and baseline NIHSS score. CONCLUSION SHR, as measured by the FBG/HbA1C, was associated with an increased odds of achieving poor functional outcomes in patients with AIS at 90 days.

Abstract
The blood glucose level at admission indicates (with some limitations) poor prognosis and thrombus burden in patients with the acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Our study aimed to measure the predictive value of the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR), an indicator of stress hyperglycemia, showing increased thrombus burden in patients with ACS. Patients (n = 1222) with ACS were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Coronary thrombus burden was classified as high and low. SHR was calculated by dividing the admission serum glucose by the estimated average glucose derived from HbA1c. Low thrombus burden was detected in 771 patients, while high thrombus burden (HTB) was detected in 451 patients. SHR was found to be significantly higher in patients with HTB (1.1 ± .3 vs 1.06 ± .4; P = .002). SHR was determined as a predictor of HTB (odds ratio (OR) 1.547 95% CI (1.139-2.100), P < .001) as a result of univariate analysis. According to multivariate analysis, SHR was determined as an independent risk factor for HTB (OR 1.328 CI (1.082-1.752), P = .001). We found that SHR predicted thrombus burden with higher sensitivity than admission glucose level in patients with ACS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The glucose-to-glycated hemoglobin ratio (GAR) represents stress hyperglycemia, which has been closely associated with adverse outcomes in cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. No studies have examined the association between stress hyperglycemia and atrial fibrillation (AF) in critically ill patients. This study aims to explore the relationship between GAR and the prognosis of critically ill patients with AF. METHODS A retrospective cohort of patients was selected from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. The GAR was calculated based on fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin levels measured after admission. The primary outcome was the 30-day mortality rate, with secondary outcomes being the 90-day and 365-day mortality rates. The GAR was divided into tertiles, and Kaplan-Meier analysis was employed to compare differences in mortality rates between groups. The Cox proportional hazards model and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were utilized to evaluate the relationship between the GAR and mortality. Subsequently, a segmented regression model was constructed to analyze threshold effects in cases where nonlinear relationships were determined. RESULTS In this cohort, the second tertile of the GAR exhibited lower mortality rates at 30 days (10.56% vs 6.33% vs 14.51%), 90 days (17.11% vs 10.09% vs 17.88%), and 365 days (25.30% vs 16.15% vs 22.72%). In the third tertile, the risk of mortality at 30 days increased by 165% (HR = 2.65, 95% CI 1.99-3.54, p < 0.001), at 90 days increased by 113% (HR = 2.13, 95% CI 1.68-2.70, p < 0.001), and at 365 days increased by 70% (HR = 1.70, 95% CI 1.68-2.70, p < 0.001). The association between the GAR and patient mortality demonstrated a "J-shaped" non-linear correlation. Once the GAR exceeded 15.915, each incremental unit increase in the ratio was associated with a 27.2% increase in the risk of 30-day mortality in critically ill atrial fibrillation patients (HR = 1.262, 95% CI 1.214-1.333, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The GAR is associated with both short-term and long-term mortality in critically ill patients with AF in a J-shaped relationship. Both low and excessively high GAR values indicate poor prognosis.

Abstract
Previous research have demonstrated that the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) accurately reflects acute hyperglycemic states and correlates with adverse outcomes. This study aims to explore the relationship between SHR and the prognosis of patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Patients with aSAH were categorized into four groups based on SHR tertiles. Functional outcomes were evaluated at 12 months using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), with scores ranging from 0 to 2 indicating a good outcome and 3-6 indicating a poor outcome. The associations between SHR and functional outcomes were analyzed using logistic regression models and restricted cubic spline analysis. A total of 127 patients exhibited poor functional outcomes. Following comprehensive adjustments, those in the highest SHR tertile had a significantly increased risk of poor prognosis compared to those in the lowest tertile (odds ratio [OR], 4.12; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.87-9.06). Moreover, each unit increase in SHR was associated with a 7.51-fold increase in the risk of poor prognosis (OR, 7.51; 95% CI: 3.19-17.70). Further analysis using restricted cubic spline confirmed a linear correlation between SHR and poor prognosis (P for nonlinearity = 0.609). Similar patterns were observed across all studied subgroups. Elevated SHR significantly correlates with poor functional prognosis at one year in patients with aSAH, independent of their diabetes status.

Abstract
Background Stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is a newly suggested measure of stress-induced hyperglycemia that combines both short-term and long-term glycemic conditions. The study aimed to explore the association between SHR and the incidence of adverse clinical events with heart failure (HF) through a meta-analysis. Methods Cohort studies relevant to the aim of the meta-analysis were retrieved by search of electronic databases including PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Wanfang, and CNKI. A random-effects model was used to combine the data by incorporating the influence of between-study heterogeneity. Results Ten studies involving 15250 patients with HF were included. Pooled results showed that compared to patients with lower SHR at baseline, those with a higher SHR were associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality during follow-up (risk ratio [RR]: 1.61, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.17 to 2.21, p = 0.003; I2 = 82%). Further meta-regression analysis suggests that different in the cutoff of SHR significantly modify the results (coefficient = 1.22, p = 0.02), and the subgroup analysis suggested a more remarkable association between SHR and all-cause mortality in studies with cutoff of SHR ≥ 1.05 than those with cutoff of SHR < 1.05 (RR: 2.29 versus 1.08, p for subgroup difference < 0.001). Subsequent meta-analyses also showed that a high SHR at baseline was related to the incidence of cardiovascular death (RR: 2.19, 95% CI: 1.55 to 3.09, p < 0.001; I2 = 0%), HF-rehospitalization (RR: 1.83, 95% CI: 1.44 to 2.33, p < 0.001; I2 = 0%), and major adverse cardiovascular events (RR: 1.54, 95% CI: 1.15 to 2.06, p = 0.004; I2 = 74%) during follow-up. Conclusion A high SHR at baseline is associated with a poor clinical prognosis of patients with HF. Systematic review registration https://inplasy.com, identifier INPLASY202430080.

Relationship between stress hyperglycemia and worsening heart failure in patients with significant secondary mitral regurgitation. Atherosclerosis 2024; 394:117306. [PMID: 37821270 DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2023.117306] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2023] [Revised: 09/17/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 10/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Secondary mitral regurgitation (sMR), a major valvular disease, is prevalent in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), and is associated with higher incidence of heart failure (HF) and mortality when present in combination with abnormal glucose metabolism. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and worsening HF in CAD patients with significant (grade ≥2) sMR. METHODS We performed a multi-center observational study of 874 participants with significant sMR following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the Cardiorenal Improvement-II (CIN-II) cohort. Patients with glucose and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) data at admission were included in the analysis, and categorized according to the SHR, the ratio of mmol/L blood glucose to % HbA1c, as quartiles: Q1: <0.74; Q2: 0.74-0.91; Q3: 0.91-1.14; and Q4: ≥1.14. The primary clinical endpoint was worsening HF and the secondary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE). RESULTS Of the 874 participants (64.1 ± 10.8 years, 80% male), 174 showed worsening HF and 226 developed MACE during a median follow-up of 3.7 years (interquartile range: 1.8-6.2 years). Compared to participants in the lowest quartile (Q1) of SHR, the highest quartile group (Q4) was at significantly higher risks of worsening HF (adjusted hazard ratio, 2.44; 95% confidence interval, 1.51-3.94; p< 0.001), while this was not associated with increased risk of MACE (p>0.05) after adjustment for potential covariates. For worsening HF, the results obtained for the normal glucose regulation subgroup may be more meaningful than those for the diabetes mellitus (DM) and pre-DM groups (p-interaction<0.001). For MACE, the acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (Q4 vs. Q1; HR: 0.65, 95%CI: 0.26-1.59) and non-AMI (Q4 vs. Q1; HR: 2.20, 95%CI: 1.36-3.54) subgroups differed significantly on MACE (p-interaction = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS Increasing SHR is associated with a higher risk of worsening of HF in patients with significant sMR, especially in those with normoglycemia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Glucose fluctuations are more harmful than persistent hyperglycemia for chronic complications of diabetes. However, the relationship between cognition and glucose fluctuations in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) complicated by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the association between short-term glucose fluctuations and cognition in patients with AIS complicated by T2DM. DESIGN A cohort study with a 2-year follow-up. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS We included 554 patients with mild AIS (mean age: 62 years; 170 females and 384 males). MEASUREMENTS Glucose variability (GV) was evaluated using glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), stress hyperglycemia (SHR), standard deviation of blood glucose (SDBG), mean postprandial blood glucose (MPBG), mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE), and time in range (TIR). We evaluated the relationship between GV, fasting blood glucose (FBG) and cognition during the acute phase using linear regression analysis. We evaluated the relationship between GV, FBG and the occurrence of post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) using a logistic regression model. Mediation analyses were fitted to explore whether the relationships of HbA1c with cognition were mediated by cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). RESULTS A clear pattern of age-related GV was observed. Higher SHR in middle-aged participants; higher HbA1c, and lower TIR in older participants; and higher MAGE, MPBG, and SDBG across a broad age range (50-80 years) were associated with cognitive impairment in the acute phase of AIS. Higher SHR and SDBG together with lower TIR in middle-aged participants, higher HbA1c in older participants, and higher FBG, MPBG, and MAGE across a broad age range (50-80 years) were associated with the occurrence of PSCI. The association between HbA1c and cognition was partially mediated (proportion: 7-16%) by CSVD. CONCLUSIONS Short-term glucose fluctuations are associated with cognition and a higher risk of PSCI in patients with AIS complicated by T2DM. CSVD might play an important role in the relationship between short-term glucose fluctuations and cognition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) could provide accurate information on the acute status of hyperglycemia. The relationship between SHR and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) prognosis remains unclear. This study was conducted to identity the association between SHR and in-hospital outcomes in patients with ACS. METHODS A total of 12,010 patients were eventually enrolled in the study. The relationship between SHR and in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) was then modeled by restricted cubic spline (RCS) curves, and all patients were divided into three groups according to the results. The multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the associations between the SHR and in-hospital outcomes, described as odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Subgroup analyses were also performed on different diseases. RESULTS The median age of this cohort was 63 (54, 71) years old, and 8942 (74.5%) were male. Group 1 was defined as SHR < 0.6 (n = 426), Group 2 was defined as SHR between 0.6 and 1 (n = 5821), and Group 3 was defined as SHR > 1 (n = 5763). Compared with Group 2, Group 1 (OR = 1.891, 95% CI: 1.028-3.479, P < 0.001) and Group 3 (OR = 1.868, 95% CI: 1.434-2.434, P < 0.001) had higher risks of suffering from in-hospital MACEs. SHR was associated with higher risks of in-hospital MACEs in the subgroups of DM [OR = 2.282, 95% CI: 1.477-3.524). CONCLUSIONS Both low and high SHR levels were independently associated with in-hospital MACEs. Young males with DM, hypertension, and decreased renal function had much higher risks of suffering from SHR-correlated MACEs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mounting evidence supports a significant correlation between the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and both short- and long-term prognoses in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Nevertheless, research examining the association between the SHR and the complexity of coronary artery disease (CAD) is scarce. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the association between the SHR and CAD complexity, as assessed by the SYNTAX score, in patients with ACS. METHODS A total of 4715 patients diagnosed with ACS were enrolled and divided into five groups according to the quintiles of the SHR. CAD complexity was assessed using the SYNTAX score and categorized as low (≤ 22) or mid/high (> 22) levels. Logistic regression was utilized to examine the association between the SHR and CAD severity (mid-/high SYNTAX score). Restricted cubic spline (RCS) curves were generated to assess the association between the SHR and CAD severity. Subgroup analyses were conducted to stratify outcomes based on age, sex, diabetes mellitus (DM) status, and clinical presentation. RESULTS Among the total ACS population, 503 (10.7%) patients had mid/high SYNTAX scores. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the SHR was an independent risk factor for mid/high SYNTAX scores in a U-shaped pattern. After adjusting for confounding variables, Q1 and Q5 demonstrated elevated odds ratios (ORs) relative to the reference category Q3, with ORs of 1.61 (95% CI: 1.19 ∼ 2.19) and 1.68 (95% CI: 1.24 ∼ 2.29), respectively. Moreover, the ORs for Q2 (1.02, 95% CI: 0.73 ∼ 1.42) and Q4 (1.18, 95% CI: 0.85 ∼ 1.63) resembled that of Q3. Compared with the merged Q2-4 group, the ORs were 1.52 (95% CI: 1.21 ∼ 1.92) for Q1 group and 1.58 (95% CI: 1.25 ∼ 2) for the Q5 group. Subgroup analysis revealed that the U-shaped association between the SHR and mid/high SYNTAX score was attenuated in DM patients (P for interaction = 0.045). CONCLUSIONS There were U-shaped associations between the SHR and CAD complexity in ACS patients, with an SHR ranging from 0.68 to 0.875 indicating a relatively lower OR for mid/high SYNTAX scores. Further studies are necessary to both evaluate the predictive value of the SHR in ACS patients and explore the underlying mechanisms of the observed U-shaped associations.

Acute-to-chronic glycemic ratio as an outcome predictor in ischemic stroke in patients with and without diabetes mellitus. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:206. [PMID: 38890732 PMCID: PMC11186093 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02260-9] [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: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Elevated plasma glucose levels are common in patients suffering acute ischemic stroke (AIS), and acute hyperglycemia has been defined as an independent determinant of adverse outcomes. The impact of acute-to-chronic glycemic ratio (ACR) has been analyzed in other diseases, but its impact on AIS prognosis remains unclear. The main aim of this study was to assess whether the ACR was associated with a 3-month poor prognosis in patients with AIS. RESEARCH, DESIGN AND METHODS Retrospective analysis of patients admitted for AIS in Hospital del Mar, Barcelona. To estimate the chronic glucose levels (CGL) we used the formula eCGL= [28.7xHbA1c (%)]-46.7. The ACR (glycemic at admission / eCGL) was calculated for all subjects. Tertile 1 was defined as: 0.28-0.92, tertile 2: 0.92-1.13 and tertile 3: > 1.13. Poor prognosis at 3 months after stroke was defined as mRS score 3-6. RESULTS 2.774 subjects with AIS diagnosis were included. Age, presence of diabetes, previous disability (mRS), initial severity (NIHSS) and revascularization therapy were associated with poor prognosis (p values < 0.05). For each 0.1 increase in ACR, there was a 7% increase in the risk of presenting a poor outcome. The 3rd ACR tertile was independently associated with a poor prognosis and mortality. In the ROC curves, adding the ACR variable to the classical clinical model did not increase the prediction of AIS prognosis (0.786 vs. 0.781). CONCLUSIONS ACR was positively associated with a poor prognosis and mortality at 3-months follow-up after AIS. Subjects included in the 3rd ACR tertile presented a higher risk of poor prognosis and mortality. Baseline glucose or ACR did not add predictive value in comparison to only using classical clinical variables.

J-shaped relationship between stress hyperglycemia ratio and 90-day and 180-day mortality in patients with a first diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction: analysis of the MIMIC-IV database. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2024; 16:132. [PMID: 38880917 PMCID: PMC11181615 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-024-01380-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2023] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024] Open
Abstract
AIMS The Stress Hyperglycemia Ratio (SHR) potently predicts adverse outcomes in patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. However, the relationship between SHR and short-term mortality risk in patients with a first diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains contentious. This study sought to understand better the relationship between SHR and short-term mortality risk in patients with a first diagnosis of AMI. METHODS We conducted a cohort study using data from 1961 patients with a first diagnosis of AMI from the MIMIC-IV (version 2.2) database. Patients were divided into three groups based on SHR tertiles. The Cox proportional hazards model and a two-segmented Cox proportional hazards model were used to elucidate the nonlinear relationship between SHR in patients with a first diagnosis of AMI and mortality. RESULTS Of the surveyed population, 175 patients (8.92%) died within 90 days, and 210 patients (10.71%) died within 180 days. After multivariate adjustments, elevated SHR levels were significantly and non-linearly associated with a higher risk of 90-day and 180-day mortality in patients with a first diagnosis of AMI, showing a J-shaped correlation with an inflection point at 0.9. Compared to participants with SHR levels below the inflection point, those with higher SHR levels had a fivefold increased risk of 90-day mortality (hazard ratio [HR] 5.74; 95% confidence interval [CI] 3.19, 10.33) and a fourfold increased risk of 180-day mortality (HR 4.56; 95% CI 2.62, 7.95). In the subgroup analysis, patients with pre-diabetes mellitus (pre-DM) and higher SHR levels had increased 90-day (HR 6.90; 95% CI 1.98, 24.02) and 180-day mortality risks (HR 5.30; 95% CI 1.96, 14.27). CONCLUSION In patients with a first diagnosis of AMI, there is a J-shaped correlation between SHR and 90-day and 180-day mortality, with an adverse prognostic inflection point of SHR at 0.9.

[PMID: 38590111 PMCID: PMC11187964 DOI: 10.1002/acn3.52063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/30/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effect of different indicators on stress-induced hyperglycemia for predicting in-hospital outcomes of acute intracerebral hemorrhage. METHODS Using data from the Chinese Stroke Center Alliance database, which is a national, multicenter, prospective, and consecutive program. Stress-induced hyperglycemia was described as glycemic gap (GG, defined as fasting blood glucose [FBG] minus estimated average blood glucose) and stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR, defined as FBG-to-estimated average blood glucose ratio [SHR 1] or FBG-to-HbA1c ratio [SHR 2]). The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality, and the second outcome was hematoma expansion. RESULTS A total of 71,333 patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage were included. In multivariate analyses, the highest levels of GG (OR 1.68, 95% CI 1.12-2.51), SHR 1 (OR 1.73, 95% CI 1.15-2.60), and SHR 2 (OR 2.07, 95% CI 1.33-3.23) were associated with in-hospital death (all the p trends <0.01). Only the highest level of SHR 2 (OR 1.24 [1.02-1.51], p trend >0.05) was related to hematoma expansion. No association between GG or SHR 1 and hematoma expansion was observed. The areas under the ROC curve of GG, SHR 1, and SHR 2 for in-hospital mortality were 0.8808 (95% CI 0.8603-0.9014), 0.8796 (95% CI 0.8589-0.9002), and 0.8806 (95% CI 0.8600-0.9012). The areas under the ROC curve of SHR 2 for hematoma expansion were 0.7133 (95% CI 0.6964-0.7302). INTERPRETATION SHR (FBG-to-HbA1c ratio) was associated with both in-hospital death and hematoma expansion in intracerebral hemorrhage, and might serve as an accessory indicator for the in-hospital prognosis of intracerebral hemorrhage.

Association between the stress-hyperglycemia ratio and all-cause mortality in community-dwelling populations: An analysis of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2014. J Diabetes 2024; 16:e13567. [PMID: 38769875 PMCID: PMC11106591 DOI: 10.1111/1753-0407.13567] [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: 04/05/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 04/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Reportedly, the stress-hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is closely associated with poor prognosis in patients with severe acute disease. However, the community-dwelling may also be in a state of stress due to environmental exposure. Our study aimed to explore the association between SHR and all-cause mortality in the community-dwelling population. METHODS A total of 18 480 participants were included out of 82 091 from the NHANES 1999-2014 survey. The Kaplan-Meier survival analyses were used to assess the disparities in survival rates based on SHR, and the log-rank test was employed to investigate the distinctions between groups. The multivariate Cox regression analysis and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis were performed to assess the association of SHR with all-cause mortality. A subgroup analysis was also conducted. RESULTS A total of 3188 deaths occurred during a median follow-up period of 11.0 (7.7; 15.4) years. The highest risk for all-cause mortality was observed when SHR≤ 0.843 or SHR ≥0.986 (log-rank p < .001). After adjusting for the confounding factors, compared with subjects in the second SHR quartile (Q2), participants in the highest (Q4, adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 1.49, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.28-1.73) and lowest quartiles (Q1, adjusted HR 1.37, 95% CI 1.16-1.60) have a higher probability of all-cause death. The RCS observed a dose-response U-shaped association between SHR and all-cause mortality. The U-shaped association between SHR and all-cause mortality was similar across subgroup analysis. CONCLUSIONS The SHR was significantly associated with all-cause mortality in the community-dwelling population, and the relationship was U-shaped.

High stress hyperglycemia ratio predicts adverse clinical outcome in patients with coronary three-vessel disease: a large-scale cohort study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:190. [PMID: 38824608 PMCID: PMC11144339 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02286-z] [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: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary three-vessel disease (CTVD) accounts for one-third of the overall incidence of coronary artery disease, with heightened mortality rates compared to single-vessel lesions, including common trunk lesions. Dysregulated glucose metabolism exacerbates atherosclerosis and increases cardiovascular risk. The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is proposed as an indicator of glucose metabolism status but its association with cardiovascular outcomes in CTVD patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains unclear. METHODS 10,532 CTVD patients undergoing PCI were consecutively enrolled. SHR was calculated using the formula: admission blood glucose (mmol/L)/[1.59×HbA1c (%)-2.59]. Patients were divided into two groups (SHR Low and SHR High) according to the optimal cutoff value of SHR. Multivariable Cox regression models were used to assess the relationship between SHR and long-term prognosis. The primary endpoint was cardiovascular (CV) events, composing of cardiac death and non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI). RESULTS During the median follow-up time of 3 years, a total of 279 cases (2.6%) of CV events were recorded. Multivariable Cox analyses showed that high SHR was associated with a significantly higher risk of CV events [Hazard Ratio (HR) 1.99, 95% Confidence interval (CI) 1.58-2.52, P < 0.001). This association remained consistent in patients with (HR 1.50, 95% CI 1.08-2.10, P = 0.016) and without diabetes (HR 1.97, 95% CI 1.42-2.72, P < 0.001). Additionally, adding SHR to the base model of traditional risk factors led to a significant improvement in the C-index, net reclassification and integrated discrimination. CONCLUSIONS SHR was a significant predictor for adverse CV outcomes in CTVD patients with or without diabetes, which suggested that it could aid in the risk stratification in this particular population regardless of glucose metabolism status.

Association of stress hyperglycemia ratio with left ventricular function and microvascular obstruction in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: a 3.0 T cardiac magnetic resonance study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:179. [PMID: 38802898 PMCID: PMC11131267 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02271-6] [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: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress hyperglycemia, which is associated with poor prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), can be determined using the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR). Impaired left ventricular function and microvascular obstruction (MVO) diagnosed using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) have also been proven to be linked to poor prognosis in patients with AMI and aid in risk stratification. However, there have been no studies on the correlation between fasting SHR and left ventricular function and MVO in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (ASTEMI). Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the additive effect of fasting SHR on left ventricular function and global deformation in patients with ASTEMI and to explore the association between fasting SHR and MVO. METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent CMR at index admission (3-7 days) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) were enrolled in this study. Basic clinical, biochemical, and CMR data were obtained and compared among all patients grouped by fasting SHR tertiles: SHR1: SHR < 0.85; SHR2: 0.85 ≤ SHR < 1.01; and SHR3: SHR ≥ 1.01. Spearman's rho (r) was used to assess the relationship between fasting SHR and left ventricular function, myocardial strain, and the extent of MVO. Multivariable linear regression analysis was performed to evaluate the determinants of left ventricular function and myocardial strain impairment in all patients with AMI. Univariable and multivariable regression analyses were performed to investigate the correlation between fasting SHR and the presence and extent of MVO in patients with AMI and those with AMI and diabetes mellitus (DM). RESULTS A total of 357 patients with ASTEMI were enrolled in this study. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular global function index (LVGFI) were significantly lower in SHR2 and SHR3 than in SHR1. Compared with SHR1 and SHR2 groups, left ventricular strain was lower in SHR3, as evidenced by global radial (GRS), global circumferential (GCS), and global longitudinal (GLS) strains. Fasting SHR were negatively correlated with LVEF, LVGFI, and GRS (r = - 0.252; r = - 0.261; and r = - 0.245; all P<0.001) and positively correlated with GCS (r = 0.221) and GLS (r = 0.249; all P <0.001). Multivariable linear regression analysis showed that fasting SHR was an independent determinant of impaired LVEF, LVGFI, GRS, and GLS. Furthermore, multivariable regression analysis after adjusting for covariates signified that fasting SHR was associated with the presence and extent of MVO in patients with AMI and those with AMI and DM. CONCLUSION Fasting SHR in patients with ASTEMI successfully treated using PPCI is independently associated with impaired cardiac function and MVO. In patients with AMI and DM, fasting SHR is an independent determinant of the presence and extent of MVO.

The impact of the stress hyperglycemia ratio on the risk of contrast-associated acute kidney injury in patients undergoing coronary angiography: a large real-world cohort study. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2024; 16:107. [PMID: 38773666 PMCID: PMC11107003 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-024-01345-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/24/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) is an important complication in the perioperative period of coronary angiography (CAG). Dysglycemia is closely associated with the occurrence of CA-AKI. However, the association between stress hyperglycemia and CA-AKI in patients undergoing CAG remains unclear. The study aims to investigate the association of the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and CA-AKI under CAG in a large real-world cohort. METHODS This was a retrospective observational study, and patients undergoing CAG were enrolled. SHR is calculated by dividing the random blood glucose with the estimated average glucose derived from the glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and subjects were divided into five groups according to SHR. The outcome was CA-AKI defined as an increase in serum creatinine of ≥ 0.3 mg/dL (26.5 μmol/L) or 1.5-fold higher than normal levels in 48 h. The association was assessed with logistic regression and restricted cubic spline analysis. RESULTS In 19,965 participants (men: 73.3%, mean age: 63.1 ± 10.8 years) undergoing CAG, a total of 1,621 CA-AKI cases occurred. There were reverse J-shaped associations between the SHR and CA-AKI after adjustment for other confounding factors. Moreover, SHR improved the predictive effectiveness of the traditional Mehran score (AUC 0.65 vs 0.63, P < 0.001), a predictive model of CA-AKI in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. CONCLUSIONS There were reverse J-shaped associations of SHR with CA-AKI risk among patients undergoing CAG, and the assessment of SHR before CAG may assist clinicians in identifying patients at higher risk of CA-AKI.

Association between the stress hyperglycemia ratio and 28-day all-cause mortality in critically ill patients with sepsis: a retrospective cohort study and predictive model establishment based on machine learning. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:163. [PMID: 38725059 PMCID: PMC11084034 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02265-4] [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: 12/02/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis is a severe form of systemic inflammatory response syndrome that is caused by infection. Sepsis is characterized by a marked state of stress, which manifests as nonspecific physiological and metabolic changes in response to the disease. Previous studies have indicated that the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) can serve as a reliable predictor of adverse outcomes in various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. However, there is limited research on the relationship between the SHR and adverse outcomes in patients with infectious diseases, particularly in critically ill patients with sepsis. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the association between the SHR and adverse outcomes in critically ill patients with sepsis. METHODS Clinical data from 2312 critically ill patients with sepsis were extracted from the MIMIC-IV (2.2) database. Based on the quartiles of the SHR, the study population was divided into four groups. The primary outcome was 28-day all-cause mortality, and the secondary outcome was in-hospital mortality. The relationship between the SHR and adverse outcomes was explored using restricted cubic splines, Cox proportional hazard regression, and Kaplan‒Meier curves. The predictive ability of the SHR was assessed using the Boruta algorithm, and a prediction model was established using machine learning algorithms. RESULTS Data from 2312 patients who were diagnosed with sepsis were analyzed. Restricted cubic splines demonstrated a "U-shaped" association between the SHR and survival rate, indicating that an increase in the SHR is related to an increased risk of adverse events. A higher SHR was significantly associated with an increased risk of 28-day mortality and in-hospital mortality in patients with sepsis (HR > 1, P < 0.05) compared to a lower SHR. Boruta feature selection showed that SHR had a higher Z score, and the model built using the rsf algorithm showed the best performance (AUC = 0.8322). CONCLUSION The SHR exhibited a U-shaped relationship with 28-day all-cause mortality and in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients with sepsis. A high SHR is significantly correlated with an increased risk of adverse events, thus indicating that is a potential predictor of adverse outcomes in patients with sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR), adjusted for average glycemic status, is suggested for assessing actual blood glucose levels. Its link with adverse outcomes is known in certain populations, yet its impact on sepsis patients' prognosis is unclear. This study explores the association between SHR and mortality in sepsis. METHODS We included 13,199 sepsis patients in this study and categorized SHR into distinct groups. Additionally, we utilized restricted cubic spline analysis to evaluate the correlation between SHR as a continuous variable and mortality. The primary outcome was 1-year all-cause mortality. Logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards models were employed to assess the associations between the SHR and both in-hospital mortality and 1-year mortality, respectively. RESULTS Among the study participants, 4,690 (35.5%) patients died during the 1-year follow-up. After adjusting for confounding variables, we identified a U-shaped correlation between SHR and 1-year mortality. Using an SHR of 0.99 as the reference point, the hazard ratio for predicted 1-year mortality increased by 1.17 (95% CI 1.08 to 1.27) per standard deviation above 0.99, whereas each standard deviation increase predicted the hazard ratio of 0.52 (95% CI 0.39 to 0.69) below 0.99. Furthermore, we found that SHR could enhance the predictive performance of conventional severity scores. CONCLUSION There exists a U shaped association between SHR and mortality in sepsis patients, where both low and high SHR values are associated with an increased risk of poor outcomes.

Abstract
AIMS Risk assessment for triple-vessel disease (TVD) remain challenging. Stress hyperglycemia represents the regulation of glucose metabolism in response to stress, and stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is recently found to reflect true acute hyperglycemic status. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of SHR and its role in risk stratification in TVD patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS A total of 3812 TVD patients with ACS with available baseline SHR measurement were enrolled from two independent centers. The endpoint was cardiovascular mortality. Cox regression was used to evaluate the association between SHR and cardiovascular mortality. The SYNTAX (Synergy Between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention With Taxus and Cardiac Surgery) II (SSII) was used as the reference model in the model improvement analysis. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 5.1 years, 219 (5.8%) TVD patients with ACS suffered cardiovascular mortality. TVD patients with ACS with high SHR had an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality after robust adjustment for confounding (high vs. median SHR: adjusted hazard ratio 1.809, 95% confidence interval 1.160-2.822, P = 0.009), which was fitted as a J-shaped pattern. The prognostic value of the SHR was found exclusively among patients with diabetes instead of those without diabetes. Moreover, addition of SHR improved the reclassification abilities of the SSII model for predicting cardiovascular mortality in TVD patients with ACS. CONCLUSIONS The high level of SHR is associated with the long-term risk of cardiovascular mortality in TVD patients with ACS, and is confirmed to have incremental prediction value beyond standard SSII. Assessment of SHR may help to improve the risk stratification strategy in TVD patients who are under acute stress.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress hyperglycemia is a physiological response of the body under stress to make adaptive adjustments in response to changes in the internal environment. The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is a new indicator after adjusting the basal blood glucose level of the population. Previous studies have shown that SHR is associated with poor prognosis in many diseases, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and delirium in elderly patients. However, there are currently no studies on the correlation between SHR and the general U.S. POPULATION The purpose of this study was to examine the association between SHR and adverse outcomes among adults in the United States in general. METHODS Data on 13,315 follow-up cohorts were extracted from NHANES. The study population was divided into four groups according to quartiles of SHR. The primary outcomes were all-cause mortality and diabetes mellitus mortality. The relationship between SHR and outcomes was explored using restricted cubic splines, COX proportional hazards regression, Kaplan-Meier curves, and mediation effects. SHR is incorporated into eight machine learning algorithms to establish a prediction model and verify the prediction performance. RESULTS A total of 13,315 individual data were included in this study. Restricted cubic splines demonstrated a "U-shaped" association between SHR and all-cause mortality and diabetes mellitus mortality, indicating that increasing SHR is associated with an increased risk of adverse events. Compared with lower SHR, higher SHR was significantly associated with an increased risk of all cause mortality and diabetes mellitus mortality (HR > 1, P < 0.05). The mediating effect results showed that the positively mediated variables were segmented neutrophils and aspartate aminotransferase, and the negatively mediated variables were hemoglobin, red blood cell count, albumin, and alanine aminotransferase. The ROC of the eight machine learning algorithm models are XGBoost (0.8688), DT (0.8512), KNN (0.7966), RF (0.8417), Logistic regression (0.8633), ENET (0.8626), SVM (0.8327) and MLP (0.8662). CONCLUSION SHR can be used as a predictor of all cause mortality and diabetes mellitus mortality in the general adult population in the United States. Higher SHR is significantly associated with an increased risk of poor prognosis, especially in those aged < 65 years and in women.

Abstract
RATIONALE Maintaining glycemic control of critically ill patients may impact outcomes such as survival, infection, and neuromuscular recovery, but there is equipoise on the target blood levels, monitoring frequency, and methods. OBJECTIVES The purpose was to update the 2012 Society of Critical Care Medicine and American College of Critical Care Medicine (ACCM) guidelines with a new systematic review of the literature and provide actionable guidance for clinicians. PANEL DESIGN The total multiprofessional task force of 22, consisting of clinicians and patient/family advocates, and a methodologist applied the processes described in the ACCM guidelines standard operating procedure manual to develop evidence-based recommendations in alignment with the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation Approach (GRADE) methodology. Conflict of interest policies were strictly followed in all phases of the guidelines, including panel selection and voting. METHODS We conducted a systematic review for each Population, Intervention, Comparator, and Outcomes question related to glycemic management in critically ill children (≥ 42 wk old adjusted gestational age to 18 yr old) and adults, including triggers for initiation of insulin therapy, route of administration, monitoring frequency, role of an explicit decision support tool for protocol maintenance, and methodology for glucose testing. We identified the best available evidence, statistically summarized the evidence, and then assessed the quality of evidence using the GRADE approach. We used the evidence-to-decision framework to formulate recommendations as strong or weak or as a good practice statement. In addition, "In our practice" statements were included when the available evidence was insufficient to support a recommendation, but the panel felt that describing their practice patterns may be appropriate. Additional topics were identified for future research. RESULTS This guideline is an update of the guidelines for the use of an insulin infusion for the management of hyperglycemia in critically ill patients. It is intended for adult and pediatric practitioners to reassess current practices and direct research into areas with inadequate literature. The panel issued seven statements related to glycemic control in unselected adults (two good practice statements, four conditional recommendations, one research statement) and seven statements for pediatric patients (two good practice statements, one strong recommendation, one conditional recommendation, two "In our practice" statements, and one research statement), with additional detail on specific subset populations where available. CONCLUSIONS The guidelines panel achieved consensus for adults and children regarding a preference for an insulin infusion for the acute management of hyperglycemia with titration guided by an explicit clinical decision support tool and frequent (≤ 1 hr) monitoring intervals during glycemic instability to minimize hypoglycemia and against targeting intensive glucose levels. These recommendations are intended for consideration within the framework of the patient's existing clinical status. Further research is required to evaluate the role of individualized glycemic targets, continuous glucose monitoring systems, explicit decision support tools, and standardized glycemic control metrics.

Abstract
Stress hyperglycaemia, hypoglycaemia, and diabetes are common in critically ill patients and related to clinical endpoints. To avoid complications related to hypoglycaemia and hyperglycaemia, it is recommended to start insulin therapy for the majority of critically ill patients with persistent blood glucose concentrations higher than 10·0 mmol/L (>180 mg/dL), targeting a range of 7·8-10·0 mmol/L (140-180 mg/dL). However, management and evidence-based targets for blood glucose control are under debate, particularly for patients with diabetes. Recent randomised controlled clinical trials now challenge current recommendations. In this Personal View, we aim to highlight these developments and the important differences between critically ill patients with and without diabetes, taking into account the considerable heterogeneity in this patient group. We critically discuss evidence from prospective randomised controlled trials and observational studies on the safety and efficacy of glycaemic control, specifically in the context of patients with diabetes in intensive care units.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Stress-related glycemic indicators, including admission blood glucose (ABG), stress-hyperglycemia ratio (SHR), and glycemic gap (GG), have been associated with worse outcomes after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, data regarding their prognostic value in the oldest old with AMI are unavailable. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association of stress-related glycemic indicators with short- and long-term cardiovascular mortality (CVM) in the oldest old (≥ 80 years) with AMI. METHODS In this prospective study, a total of 933 consecutive old patients with AMI admitted to FuWai hospital (Beijing, China) were enrolled. On admission, ABG, SHR, and GG were assessed and all participants were classified according to their quartiles. Kaplan-Meier, restricted cubic splines (RCS), and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to evaluate the association between these glycemic indicators and CVM within 30 days and long-term follow-up. RESULTS During an average of 1954 patient-years of follow-up, a total of 250 cardiovascular deaths were recorded. Kaplan-Meier analyses showed the lowest CVM in quartile 1 of ABG and in quartile 2 of SHR and GG. After adjusting for potential covariates, patients in quartile 4 of ABG, SHR, and GG had a respective 1.67-fold (95% CI: 1.03-2.69; P = 0.036), 1.80-fold (95% CI: 1.16-2.79; P = 0.009), and 1.78-fold (95% CI: 1.14-2.79; P = 0.011) higher risk of long-term CVM risk compared to those in the reference groups (quartile 1 of ABG and quartile 2 of SHR and GG). Furthermore, RCS suggested a J-shaped relationship of ABG and a U-shaped association of SHR and GG with long-term CVM. Additionally, we observed similar associations of these acute glycemic parameters with 30-day CVM. CONCLUSIONS Our data first indicated that SHR and GG consistently had a U-shaped association with both 30-day and long-term CVM among the oldest old with AMI, suggesting that they may be useful for risk stratification in this special population.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2024; 11:1371606. [PMID: 38572310 PMCID: PMC10987860 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2024.1371606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Background It is recognized that patients' blood glucose fluctuates over time during acute disease episodes, especially during the outbreak of cardiovascular events, regardless of the presence of an abnormal blood glucose profile prior to admission to the hospital. Glucose fluctuations in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in the intensive care unit (ICU) are currently not adequately monitored and studied. We focused on blood glucose fluctuation values within 24 h of admission to assess their association with 30-day and 1-year mortality. Methods Data of patients with AMI aged 18 years or older from the Critical Care Medical Information Marketplace database III V1.4 were available for analysis in this research. Glucose data were obtained by measurement. A total of 390 of them were treated with PCI. The principal consequence was 30-day and 1-year mortality in patients with AMI. The effect of different glucose fluctuations within 24 h of admission on mortality was predicted by constructing a multivariate Cox regression model with four model adjustments and Kaplan-Meier survival curves. Additionally, we performed curve-fitting analyses to show the correlation between blood glucose fluctuations and risk of death. Results We selected 1,699 AMI patients into our study through screening. The included population was categorized into three groups based on the tertiles of blood glucose fluctuation values within 24 h of admission to the ICU. The three groups were <25 mg/dl, 25-88 mg/dl and >88 mg/dl. By cox regression analysis, the group with the highest blood glucose fluctuation values (>88 mg/dl) had the most significant increase in 30-day and 1-year mortality after excluding confounding factors (30-day mortality adjusted HR = 2.11; 95% CI = 1.49-2.98 p < 0.001; 1-year mortality adjusted HR = 1.83; 95% CI = 1.40-2.39 p < 0.001). As demonstrated by the Kaplan-Meier survival curves, the group with the greatest fluctuations in blood glucose has the worst 30-day and 1-year prognosis. Conclusions The extent of glucose fluctuations in patients with AMI in the first 24 h after ICU admission is an essential predictor as to 30-day as well as 1-year mortality. When blood glucose fluctuates more than 88 mg/dl within 24 h, mortality increases significantly with the range of blood glucose fluctuations.

Increased stress hyperglycemia ratio at hospital admission in stroke patients are associated with increased in-hospital mortality and length of stay. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2024; 16:69. [PMID: 38491539 PMCID: PMC10943784 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-024-01303-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 03/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Recently, the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) has been introduced as a metric to signify relative hyperglycemia. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between SHR and in-hospital mortality and length of stay occurring during hospitalization in stroke patients. METHODS The retrospective cohort study comprised a total of 4,018 patients diagnosed with acute stroke. The SHR is expressed by the formula: SHR = ABG (mmol/L) / [1.59 × HbA1c (%) - 2.59]. Outcomes included in-hospital mortality and length of stay. Multivariable logistic and linear regression analyses were conducted. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to distinguish between the variables, and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was compared. RESULTS In this analysis, a total of 4,018 individuals participated, including 2,814 male patients, accounting for 70.0%. Overall, in-hospital mortality and length of stay tended to rise as SHR increased. A higher prevalence of in-hospital mortality was observed with each standard deviation (SD) increase of the SHR (odds ratio [OR]: 1.26, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.05-1.52). Moreover, after considering the confounders, a significant positive association between SHR levels and length of stay was observed (β = 0.70, 95% CI: 0.40-1.00). ROC analysis showed that among stroke patients, SHR (AUC = 0.693) was more effective than admission blood glucose (ABG) (AUC = 0.646) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (AUC = 0.523), which were more predictive of in-hospital mortality. CONCLUSIONS Elevated SHR levels are associated with increased in-hospital mortality and prolonged length of stay in stroke patients.

The relative and combined ability of stress hyperglycemia ratio and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide to predict all-cause mortality in diabetic patients with multivessel coronary artery disease. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:93. [PMID: 38468331 PMCID: PMC10926680 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02186-2] [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: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 03/01/2024] [Indexed: 03/13/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are independently associated with increased mortality risk in diabetic patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the role of these biomarkers in patients with diabetes and multivessel disease (MVD) remains unknown. The present study aimed to assess the relative and combined abilities of these biomarkers to predict all-cause mortality in patients with diabetes and MVD. METHODS This study included 1148 diabetic patients with MVD who underwent coronary angiography at Tianjin Chest Hospital between January 2016 and December 2016. The patients were divided into four groups according to their SHR (SHR-L and SHR-H) and NT-proBNP (NT-proBNP-L and NT-proBNP-H) levels. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to evaluate the association of SHR and NT-proBNP levels with all-cause mortality. RESULTS During a mean 4.2 year follow-up, 138 patients died. Multivariate analysis showed that SHR and NT-proBNP were strong independent predictors of all-cause mortality in diabetic patients with MVD (SHR: HR hazard ratio [2.171; 95%CI 1.566-3.008; P < 0.001; NT-proBNP: HR: 1.005; 95%CI 1.001-1.009; P = 0.009). Compared to patients in the first (SHR-L and NT-proBNP-L) group, patients in the fourth (SHR-H and NT-proBNP-H) group had the highest mortality risk (HR: 12.244; 95%CI 5.828-25.721; P < 0.001). The areas under the curve were 0.615(SHR) and 0.699(NT-proBNP) for all-cause mortality. Adding either marker to the original models significantly improved the C-statistic and integrated discrimination improvement values (all P < 0.05). Moreover, combining SHR and NT-proBNP levels into the original model provided maximal prognostic information. CONCLUSIONS SHR and NT-proBNP independently and jointly predicted all-cause mortality in diabetic patients with MVD, suggesting that strategies to improve risk stratification in these patients should incorporate SHR and NT-porBNP into risk algorithms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) on the prognosis of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in patients with different diabetic status has not been elucidated. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of SHR and admission blood glucose (ABG) for the short- and long-term mortality in diabetic and nondiabetic populations with ICH. METHOD Participants with ICH were retrospectively retrieved from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC-IV). The primary outcome was all-cause 30-day and 1-year mortality. The association of SHR and ABG with the primary outcomes in diabetic and nondiabetic cohorts were assessed by Cox proportional hazard regression. RESULTS Overall, 1029 patients with a median age of 71.09 (IQR: 60.05-81.97) were included. Among them, 548 (53%) individuals were male, and 95 (19%) as well as 323 (31%) ones experienced the 30-day and 1-year mortality, respectively. After adjusting for confounding variables, individuals in quintile 5 of SHR had significantly higher risk of the 30-day and 1-year mortality than those in quintile 1 in the whole cohort (30-day mortality: HR 3.33, 95%CI 2.01-5.51; 1-year mortality: HR 2.09, 95% CI 1.46-3.00) and in nondiabetic patients (30-day mortality: HR 4.55, 95%CI 2.33-8.88; 1-year mortality: HR 3.06, 95%CI 1.93-4.86), but no significant difference was observed in diabetic patients. Similar results were observed for ABG as a categorical variable. As continuous variable, SHR was independently correlated with the 30-day and 1-year mortality in both of the diabetic and nondiabetic cohorts (30-day mortality: HR 2.63, 95%CI 1.50-4.60. 1-year mortality: HR 2.12, 95%CI 1.33-3.39), but this correlation was only observed in nondiabetic cohort for ABG (HR 1.00, 95%CI 0.99-1.01 for both of the 30-day and 1-year mortality). Moreover, compared with ABG, SHR can better improve the C-statistics of the original models regarding the 30-day and 1-year outcomes, especially in patients with diabetes (p < 0.001 in all models). CONCLUSION SHR might be a more useful and reliable marker than ABG for prognostic prediction and risk stratification in critically ill patients with ICH, especially in those with diabetes.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to delineate correlation between stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and clinical outcomes among patients in the cardiac intensive care unit (CICU). METHODS Participants were categorized based on their SHR threshold values. Key outcomes were short-term mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) at 1-year follow-up. The association between SHR and outcomes was estimated using inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and Kaplan-Meier analyses. The C-statistic was used to gauge the predictive capability of SHR. RESULTS The study included 1,133 patients from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV and 412 from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University. Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that individuals with elevated SHR exhibited higher 90-day mortality and MACEs. When considering SHR levels and diabetes status simultaneously, those with increased SHR but non-diabetes had the highest 90-day mortality and MACEs. SHR was associated with short-term mortality and MACEs (HRadjusted 1.63 95%CI 1.15-2.30; HRIPTW 1.47 95%CI 1.05-2.05). Upon integrating SHR into the foundational model, the C-statistic was 0.821, outperforming other hyperglycemia metrics. CONCLUSION SHR is a valuable indicator for predicting poor outcomes in CICU patients. Its utility spans potential risk stratification and offers insights for tailoring prognostic treatments to CICU patients.

Abstract
AIMS The no-reflow phenomenon (NRP) is a common complication of saphenous vein graft (SVG) interventions. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) on the development of NRP in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous SVG intervention. METHODS The study included 223 patients who presented at our center with ACS, had a history of coronary artery bypass graft and underwent a saphenous graft procedure. The relationship between SHR calculated at the time of presentation from glucose and HbA1c values, and the development of NRP evaluated after the procedure with angiography was determined with univariate and multivariate binary regression analysis. RESULT The study population was separated into two groups as those who developed and did not develop NRP. Mean age was determined to be significantly higher in the group that did not develop NRP compared to the group with NRP (p: 0.004). Angiographically, the thrombus burden was determined to be significantly higher in the group that developed NRP (p < 0.001). Patients were separated into 3 tertiles according to the SHR level (T1, T2, T3), and the rate of NRP development was determined at a significantly higher rate in the T3 group (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS This study showed that SHR, a parameter that can be easily calculated noninvasively, is an independent predictor of NRP development in ACS patients undergoing saphenous interventions. In addition, high thrombus burden and predilatation before stenting were also found to be factors that increase the likelihood of developing NRP.

The Glycemic Ratio Is Strongly and Independently Associated With Mortality in the Critically Ill. J Diabetes Sci Technol 2024; 18:335-344.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interventional studies investigating blood glucose (BG) management in intensive care units (ICU) have been inconclusive. New insights are needed. We assessed the ability of a new metric, the Glycemic Ratio (GR), to determine the relationship of ICU glucose control relative to preadmission glycemia and mortality. METHODS Retrospective cohort investigation (n = 4790) in an adult medical-surgical ICU included patients with minimum four BGs, hemoglobin (Hgb), and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). The GR is the quotient of mean ICU BGs (mBG) and estimated preadmission BG, derived from HbA1c. RESULTS Mortality displayed a J-shaped curve with GR (nadir GR 0.9), independent of background glycemia, consistent for HbA1c <6.5% vs >6.5%, and Hgb >10 g/dL vs <10 g/dL and medical versus surgical. An optimal range of GR 0.80 to 0.99 was associated with decreased mortality compared with GR above and below this range. The mBG displayed a linear relationship with mortality at lower HbA1c but diminished for HbA1c >6.5%, and dependent on preadmission glycemia. In adjusted analysis, GR remained associated with mortality (odds ratio = 2.61, 95% confidence interval = 1.48-4.62, P = .0012), but mBG did not (1.004, 1.000-1.009, .059). A single value on admission was not independently associated with mortality. CONCLUSIONS The GR provided new insight into malglycemia that was not apparent using mBG, or an admission value. Mortality was associated with acute change from preadmission glycemia (GR). Further assessment of the impact of GR deviations from the nadir in mortality at GR 0.80 to 0.99, as both relative hypo- and hyperglycemia, and as duration of exposure and intensity, may further define the multifaceted nature of malglycemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is a novel marker reflecting the true acute hyperglycemia status and is associated with clinical adverse events. The relationship between SHR and mortality in patients with diabetes or prediabetes is still unclear. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of the SHR for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with diabetes or prediabetes. METHODS This study included 11,160 patients diagnosed with diabetes or prediabetes from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2005-2018). The study endpoints were all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, and morality data were extracted from the National Death Index (NDI) up to December 31, 2019. Patients were divided into SHR quartiles. Cox proportion hazards regression was applied to determine the prognostic value of SHR. Model 1 was not adjusted for any covariates. Model 2 was adjusted for age, sex, and race. Model 3 was adjusted for age, sex, race, BMI, smoking status, alcohol use, hypertension, CHD, CKD, anemia, and TG. RESULTS During a mean follow-up of 84.9 months, a total of 1538 all-cause deaths and 410 cardiovascular deaths were recorded. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed the lowest all-cause mortality incidence was in quartile 3 (P < 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analyses indicated that, compared to the 1st quartile, the 4th quartile was associated with higher all-cause mortality (model 1: HR = 0.89, 95% CI 0.74-10.7, P = 0.226; model 2: HR = 1.24, 95% CI 1.03-1.49, P = 0.026; model 3: HR = 1.30, 95% CI 1.08-1.57, P = 0.006). The 3rd quartile was associated with lower cardiovascular mortality than quartile 1 (model 1: HR = 0.47, 95% CI 0.32-0.69, P < 0.001; model 2: HR = 0.66, 95% CI 0.45-0.96, P = 0.032; model 3: HR = 0.68, 95% CI 0.46-0.99, P = 0.049). There was a U-shaped association between SHR and all-cause mortality and an L-shaped association between SHR and cardiovascular mortality, with inflection points of SHR for poor prognosis of 0.87 and 0.93, respectively. CONCLUSION SHR is related to all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with diabetes or prediabetes. SHR may have predictive value in those patients.

Prognostic effect of stress hyperglycemia ratio on patients with severe aortic stenosis receiving transcatheter aortic valve replacement: a prospective cohort study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:73. [PMID: 38365751 PMCID: PMC10870928 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02160-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: 11/27/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) has recently been recognized as a novel biomarker that accurately reflects acute hyperglycemia status and is associated with poor prognosis of heart failure. We evaluated the relationship between SHR and clinical outcomes in patients with severe aortic stenosis receiving transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). METHODS There were 582 patients with severe native aortic stenosis who underwent TAVR consecutively enrolled in the study. The formula used to determine SHR was as follows: admission blood glucose (mmol/L)/(1.59×HbA1c[%]-2.59). The primary endpoint was defined as all-cause mortality, while secondary endpoints included a composite of cardiovascular mortality or readmission for heart failure, and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) including cardiovascular mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. Multivariable Cox regression and restricted cubic spline analysis were employed to assess the relationship between SHR and endpoints, with hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS During a median follow-up of 3.9 years, a total of 130 cases (22.3%) of all-cause mortality were recorded. Results from the restricted cubic spline analysis indicated a linear association between SHR and all endpoints (p for non-linearity > 0.05), even after adjustment for other confounding factors. Per 0.1 unit increase in SHR was associated with a 12% (adjusted HR: 1.12, 95% CI: 1.04-1.21) higher incidence of the primary endpoint, a 12% (adjusted HR: 1.12, 95% CI: 1.02-1.22) higher incidence of cardiovascular mortality or readmission for heart failure, and a 12% (adjusted HR: 1.12, 95% CI: 1.01-1.23) higher incidence of MACE. Subgroup analysis revealed that SHR had a significant interaction with diabetes mellitus with regard to the risk of all-cause mortality (p for interaction: 0.042). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that there were significant differences in the incidence of all endpoints between the two groups with 0.944 as the optimal binary cutoff point of SHR (all log-rank test: p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Our study indicates linear relationships of SHR with the risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality or readmission for heart failure, and MACE in patients with severe aortic stenosis receiving TAVR after a median follow-up of 3.9 years. Patients with an SHR exceeding 0.944 had a poorer prognosis compared to those with lower SHR values.

Stress hyperglycemia ratio as a prognostic indicator for long-term adverse outcomes in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:67. [PMID: 38350936 PMCID: PMC10865536 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02157-7] [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: 12/28/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/15/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies highlighted that stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is a potential predictor for future risk in heart failure (HF) patients. However, its implications specifically in HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are not yet fully elucidated. We aimed to investigate the association between SHR and long-term clinical outcomes in HFpEF patients. METHODS HFpEF patients enrolled between 2015 and 2023, were followed (mean 41 months) for a composite outcome of all-cause, cardiovascular mortality, and HF rehospitalization. SHR was established as the ratio of acute-chronic glycemia from admission blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin. The optimal cut-off for SHR to predict outcomes based on event prediction was determined through ROC analysis, and the cutoff was identified at 0.99. The effect of SHR on adverse risk was examined through the Cox hazards and Kaplan-Meier survival methods. A Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to assess the relationship between SHR and the severity of HF, as indicated by N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels. Furthermore, the incremental prognostic value of SHR was further assessed by the integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) and the net reclassification improvement (NRI). RESULTS Among the 400 enrolled patients, 190 individuals (47.5%) encountered composite events over the 41-month follow-up period. SHR was significantly elevated in patients with events compared with those without (p < 0.001). All patients were stratified into high SHR (n = 124) and low SHR (n = 276) groups based on the SHR cutoff. The high SHR group had a significantly higher incidence of adverse events than the low SHR group (log-rank; p < 0.001). Additional analysis indicated a poorer prognosis in patients with low left ventricular EF (LVEF) levels (50 < LVEF < 60) and high SHR (SHR > 0.99) in comparison to the other groups (log-rank p < 0.001). In adjusted analysis, after accounting for age, sex, diabetes, and NT-proBNP, elevated SHR remained independently predictive of adverse outcomes (adjusted HR: 2.34, 95% CI 1.49-3.67; p < 0.001). Furthermore, adding SHR to a model with MAGGIC score provided an incremental improvement in predicting adverse events. Additionally, SHR displayed a slight correlation with NT-proBNP. CONCLUSION Elevated SHR was independently associated with an increased risk for composite events of all-cause, cardiovascular mortality, and HF readmission than those with lower SHR. SHR is a valuable tool for predicting and stratifying long-term adverse risks among HFpEF patients.

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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress hyperglycemia and glycemic variability (GV) can reflect dramatic increases and acute fluctuations in blood glucose, which are associated with adverse cardiovascular events. This study aimed to explore whether the combined assessment of the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and GV provides additional information for prognostic prediction in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) hospitalized in the intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS Patients diagnosed with CAD from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV database (version 2.2) between 2008 and 2019 were retrospectively included in the analysis. The primary endpoint was 1-year mortality, and the secondary endpoint was in-hospital mortality. Levels of SHR and GV were stratified into tertiles, with the highest tertile classified as high and the lower two tertiles classified as low. The associations of SHR, GV, and their combination with mortality were determined by logistic and Cox regression analyses. RESULTS A total of 2789 patients were included, with a mean age of 69.6 years, and 30.1% were female. Overall, 138 (4.9%) patients died in the hospital, and 404 (14.5%) patients died at 1 year. The combination of SHR and GV was superior to SHR (in-hospital mortality: 0.710 vs. 0.689, p = 0.012; 1-year mortality: 0.644 vs. 0.615, p = 0.007) and GV (in-hospital mortality: 0.710 vs. 0.632, p = 0.004; 1-year mortality: 0.644 vs. 0.603, p < 0.001) alone for predicting mortality in the receiver operating characteristic analysis. In addition, nondiabetic patients with high SHR levels and high GV were associated with the greatest risk of both in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR] = 10.831, 95% confidence interval [CI] 4.494-26.105) and 1-year mortality (hazard ratio [HR] = 5.830, 95% CI 3.175-10.702). However, in the diabetic population, the highest risk of in-hospital mortality (OR = 4.221, 95% CI 1.542-11.558) and 1-year mortality (HR = 2.013, 95% CI 1.224-3.311) was observed in patients with high SHR levels but low GV. CONCLUSIONS The simultaneous evaluation of SHR and GV provides more information for risk stratification and prognostic prediction than SHR and GV alone, contributing to developing individualized strategies for glucose management in patients with CAD admitted to the ICU.

[PMID: 37713997 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcrc.2023.154429] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Revised: 08/31/2023] [Accepted: 09/07/2023] [Indexed: 09/17/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The relationship between critical care mortality and hypoglycemia, both relative (>30% below average preadmission glycemia) and absolute (blood glucose (BG) <70 mg/dL (<10 mmol/L)) requires further definition. METHODS We assessed the risk-adjusted relationship between hospital mortality with relative hypoglycemia using the Glycemic Ratio (GR), and with absolute hypoglycemia using BG in a retrospective cohort investigation (n = 4790). RESULTS Relative hypoglycemia excursions below GR 0.7 with a of 24-h non-exposure period between excursions in those with HbA1c ≥ 8% were independently associated with mortality (n = 373, OR 2.49, 95% CI 1.54-4.04, p = 0.0002) but not those with HbA1c < 8% (n = 4417, OR 0.98 95% CI 0.89-1.08, p = 0.70). Hours below GR 0.7 (1.0037, 0.9995-1.0080, 0.0846) or minimum GR (0.0896, 0.0030-2.6600, 0.1632) were not independently associated with outcome. Absolute hypoglycemia occurred across the HbA1c spectrum in a U-shaped pattern. There was no difference in mortality associated with exposure to BG < 70 mg/dL for HbA1c ≥ 6.5% vs <6.5% (29.7% vs 24.3%, p = 0.77). Hours below 70 mg/dL demonstrated strongest association with outcome, while minimum BG, and excursions below 70 mg/dL were also independently associated. CONCLUSIONS Relative hypoglycemia represented by excursions below GR 0.7 in those with HbA1c ≥ 8% occurred commonly and was independently associated with mortality. Absolute hypoglycemia had similar association with mortality regardless of HbA1c.

Abstract
A new index called the acute-to-chronic (A/C) glycemic ratio has been proposed to better represent the true acute glycemic rise in people with acute disease. However, there has been no previous study investigating the relationship between A/C glycemic ratio and SYNTAX score in patients with diabetic acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of A/C glycemic ratio in predicting coronary artery disease severity and SYNTAX score in diabetic patients presenting with ACS. The study included 131 consecutive patients hospitalized for ACS in our hospital, previously diagnosed with diabetes and undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. The relationship between A/C glycemic ratio and SYNTAX score calculated at the time of admission was determined in univariate and multivariate linear regression analyses. The sample size was divided into three parts (T1, T2, and T3) according to the admission blood glucose (ABG)/estimated average glucose (eAG) ratio. When ABG/eAG and SYNTAX scores were compared, there was no significant difference between the T1 and T2 groups, but a significant increase was found in the T3 group compared with the other two groups (T1: 14.26, T2: 14.77, T3: 24.41; p < 0.001). When multivariate modeling was performed with the two or three most relevant variables (age, estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR], and ABG/eAG ratio), the upper tertile of the ABG/eAG variable was correlated with the severity of coronary atherosclerosis and higher SYNTAX score. This study shows that there is a significant relationship between higher ABG/eAG ratio and higher SYNTAX score in diabetic patients presenting with ACS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an acute inflammatory respiratory failure condition that may be associated with brain injury. We aimed to describe the types of structural brain injuries detected by brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) among patients with ARDS. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed and collected data on brain injuries as detected by brain MRI during index hospitalization of all patients with ARDS at a single tertiary center in the United States from January 2010 to October 2018 (pre-COVID era). Structural brain injuries were classified as cerebral ischemia (ischemic infarct and hypoxic-ischemic brain injury) or cerebral hemorrhage (intraparenchymal hemorrhage, cerebral microbleeds, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and subdural hematoma). Descriptive statistics were conducted. RESULTS Of the 678 patients with ARDS, 66 (9.7%) underwent brain MRI during their ARDS illness. The most common indication for brain MRI was encephalopathy (45.4%), and the median time from hospital admission to MRI was 10 days (interquartile range 4-17). Of 66 patients, 29 (44%) had MRI evidence of brain injury, including cerebral ischemia in 33% (22 of 66) and cerebral hemorrhage in 21% (14 of 66). Among those with cerebral ischemia, common findings were bilateral globus pallidus infarcts (n = 7, 32%), multifocal infarcts (n = 5, 23%), and diffuse hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (n = 3, 14%). Of those with cerebral hemorrhage, common findings were cerebral microbleeds (n = 12, 86%) and intraparenchymal hemorrhage (n = 2, 14%). Patients with ARDS with cerebral hemorrhage had significantly greater use of rescue therapies, including prone positioning (28.6% vs. 5.8%, p = 0.03), inhaled vasodilator (35.7% vs. 11.5%, p = 0.046), and recruitment maneuver (14.3% vs. 0%, p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Structural brain injury was not uncommon among selected patients with ARDS who underwent brain MRI. The majority of brain injuries seen were bilateral globus pallidus infarcts and cerebral microbleeds.

Maximum stress hyperglycemia ratio within the first 24 h of admission predicts mortality during and after the acute phase of acute coronary syndrome in patients with and without diabetes: A retrospective cohort study from the MIMIC-IV database. Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2024; 208:111122.

Abstract
AIMS The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is significantly associated with short-term adverse cardiovascular events. However, the association between SHR and mortality after the acute phase of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains controversial. METHODS This study used data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV database. Patients with ACS hospitalized in the intensive care unit (ICU) were retrospectively enrolled. RESULTS A total of 2668 ACS patients were enrolled. The incidence of in-hospital and 1-year mortality was 4.7 % and 13.2 %, respectively. The maximum SHR had a higher prognostic value for predicting both in-hospital and 1-year mortality than the first SHR. Adding the maximum SHR to the SOFA score could significantly improve the prognostic prediction. In the landmark analysis at 30 days, the maximum SHR was a risk factor for mortality within 30 days regardless of whether patients had diabetes. However, it was no longer associated with mortality after 30 days in patients with diabetes after adjustment (HR = 1.237 per 1-point increment, 95 % CI 0.854-1.790). CONCLUSIONS The maximum SHR was significantly associated with mortality in patients with ACS hospitalized in the ICU. However, caution is warranted if it is used for predicting mortality after 30 days in patients with diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR), a newly developed metric, is used to assess adverse outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, the relationship between SHR and fatal outcomes (in-hospital mortality [IHM], malignant cerebral edema [MCE], symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage [sICH], 3-month mortality, and poor functional outcome) in AIS patients receiving recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) treatment is unclear, and determining the optimal threshold remains incomplete. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively enrolled a total of 345 AIS patients treated with rt-PA during 2015-2022 and collected data on various glucose metrics, including different types of SHR, glycemic gap (GG), random plasma glucose (RPG), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). SHR and GG were calculated using these equations: SHR1, [FPG]/[HbA1c]; SHR2, [admission RPG]/[HbA1c]; SHR3, FPG/[(1.59 × HbA1c)-2.59]; SHR4, [admission RPG]/[(1.59 × HbA1c)-2.59]; GG, admission RPG - [(1.59 × HbA1c)-2.59]. We used multivariable logistic regression analysis (MVLR) to identify the association between different glucose metrics and outcomes while comparing their predictive values. RESULTS SHR1 had the greatest predictive power and a more significant correlation with fatal outcomes than other continuous glucose metrics. The area under the curve of the SHR1 for IHM, MCE, and sICH, 3-month mortality, and poor functional outcome were 0.75, 0.77, 0.77, 0.76, and 0.73, respectively. SHR1 (per 1-point increases) was independently associated with IHM (Odds ratios [ORs] = 5.80; 95% CI [1.96, 17.17]; p = 0.001), MCE (ORs = 4.73; 95% CI [1.71, 13.04]; p = 0.003), sICH (ORs = 4.68, 95% CI [1.48-14.82]; p = 0.009), 3-month mortality (ORs = 10.87; 95% CI [3.56, 33.21]; p<0.001), and 3-month poor functional outcome (ORs = 8.05; 95% CI [2.77, 23.39]; p<0.001) after adjustment in MVLR. In subgroup analysis, elevated SHR1 was associated with fatal outcomes in patients with non-diabetes, SBP≥ 180 mmHg, and NIHSS <16. CONCLUSION SHR1 demonstrates an independent association with fatal outcomes in AIS patients treated with rt-PA, exhibiting superior predictive ability over other glucose metrics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Glucose-to-glycated hemoglobin ratio (GAR) is considered a more reliable marker of stress hyperglycemia by correcting for basal blood glucose levels. This study aimed to investigate the extent to which GAR is associated with 3 month and 1 year all-cause mortalities in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) undergoing mechanical thrombectomy (MT). METHODS We retrospectively followed 553 AIS patients who underwent MT. The degree of stress hyperglycemia was quantified as the GAR, defined as fasting plasma glucose (mmol/L)/hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (%) on the second day after admission. According to the GAR quartiles, the patients were further categorized into four groups (group 1-group 4). We assessed the association between GAR and all-cause mortalities, clinical outcomes during hospitalization and function outcomes at 3 months. The associations between stress hyperglycemia and all-cause mortalities were analyzed using a Cox proportional-hazards model, while other outcomes were analyzed using multiple logistic regression analysis. RESULTS The follow-up lasted a median of 18 months (range 0-66 months). The 3 month mortality rate was 9.58% (n = 53) and the 1 year mortality rate was 18.62% (n = 103). The Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed a significant inverse relationship between GAR and mortality (P < 0.001). In the Cox proportional-hazards model at 3 months, compared with group1, group 4 of GAR was associated with a significant increase in the risk of 3 month mortality (hazard ratio [HR] = 4.11, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.41-12.0, P = 0.01) after adjusting for potential covariates. On multivariate logistic regression analysis, GAR was strongly associated with an increased risk of 3 month poor function outcome. CONCLUSIONS Stress hyperglycemia, quantified by a higher GAR, is associated with all-cause mortality and poor functional outcomes in patients with AIS who undergo MT. Furthermore, GAR may contribute to improving the predictive efficiency of all-cause mortality in patients with AIS after MT, especially short-term all-cause mortality.
