Association between diabetes mellitus and post‐discharge outcomes in patients hospitalized with heart failure: findings from the EVEREST trial (original) (raw)

“…N.S. had full access to all the data in the study and takes mellitus 24 have high morbidity and mortality despite current therapy, the MR may be an important therapeutic target in these vulnerable patients. ARTS-HF Japan was a small study designed to test the response to finerenone in Japanese patients.…”

“…30 Another study revealed that 33% of all HF patients have concomitant DM and this number rises up to 40% in patients admitted with acute decompensated HF. 31 Sarma S et al 32 showed approximately 40% of hospitalized HF patients with low EF have DM. DM in hospitalized patients is associated with worse prognosis 32 , increased risk for combined CV mortality and HF-related hospitalization 33 , and longer hospital stay 31 , despite receiving care that is similar to that for patients without DM 34 although this paradigm is not a consistent finding.…”

Anaemia is also a common companion to diabetes and this is because of the high prevalence of chronic kidney disease in patients with diabetes, leading to functional erythropoietin deficiency.…”

“…22 The diagnosis of diabetes in heart failure patients results in increased cardiovascular mortality, higher readmission rates 23 and increased hospital lengths of stay. 24 Data from ALLHAT (The Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial) demonstrated significantly higher risk for heart failure admissions or death in diabetics, nearly twice as high than in those patients without diabetes.…”
