Abstract
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the risk factors of dapagliflozin-associated diabetic ketosis/ketoacidosis (DK/DKA) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
A case-control study was conducted in a general hospital in China from 2018 to 2021. T2DM patients who developed DK/DKA after dapagliflozin treatment were identified. Each patient in the DA/DKA group was matched with a patient in the non-DK/DKA group in terms of the baseline characteristics. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and logistic regressions were performed.
RESULTS
Out of 1,684 hospitalized patients taking dapagliflozin, 170 were diagnosed with dapagliflozin-associated DK/DKA. A total of 137 cases were matched with 137 controls. The mean time-to-onset (TTO) of DK/DKA was 28.59 days. Logistic regression showed that current drinking (OR = 7.656, p < 0.001), T2DM duration ≥ 7.625 years (OR = 2.399, p = 0.017), acute ST-elevations myocardial infarction (STEMI) (OR = 12.770, p = 0.028), acute infection (OR = 2.862, p = 0.043), insulin dose reduction/cessation before dapagliflozin exposure (OR = 6.751, p < 0.001), and a major plus or major operation (OR = 2.652, p = 0.022) were risk factors for dapagliflozin-associated DK/DKA. Furthermore, T2DM duration ≥ 7.625 years (p = 0.046) and acute STEMI (p < 0.001) were independently associated with more severe DK/DKA.
CONCLUSION
Current drinking, long T2DM duration, STEMI, acute infection, insulin deficiency, and major operation are the risk factors associated with DK/DKA in T2DM patients. Furthermore, long T2DM duration and STEMI were associated with more severe DK/DKA situations.
