Abstract
Aim
We aimed to determine if hospital admission hyperglycaemia and hypoglycaemia are associated with increased long-term mortality.
Methods
A post-hoc analysis of data from a trial of glucose screening in the emergency department was conducted. Data were linked with a death registry up to 5 years after admission. The relationship between admission glucose and mortality was examined by cox regression. Further analyses of people who survived the admission and subsequent 28 days was performed.
Results
There were 131,322 patients, of whom 38,712 (29.5 %) died. Mean follow-up was 3·3 ± 1·5 years. Compared to the reference glucose band of 6·1-8·0 mmol/L, there was increased mortality in higher bands, reaching a hazard ratio (HR) of 1·44 (95 %CI 1·34-1·55, p < 0·001) for people with glucose > 20·0 mmol/L. The HR was 1·56 (95 %CI 1·46-1·68, p < 0·001) for people with glucose ≤ 4·0 mmol/L. Similar relationships were observed among 28-day survivors. The relationships were attenuated among people with known diabetes.
Among 4867 subjects with glucose ≥ 14·0 mmol/L, those diagnosed with diabetes during the admission had lower mortality compared to subjects where the diagnosis was not made (HR 0·53, 95 %CI 0·40-0·72, p < 0·001). This was attenuated among 28-day survivors.
Conclusion
Hyperglycaemia and hypoglycaemia on hospital admission are associated with increased long-term mortality.
期刊介绍:
Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice is an international journal for health-care providers and clinically oriented researchers that publishes high-quality original research articles and expert reviews in diabetes and related areas. The role of the journal is to provide a venue for dissemination of knowledge and discussion of topics related to diabetes clinical research and patient care. Topics of focus include translational science, genetics, immunology, nutrition, psychosocial research, epidemiology, prevention, socio-economic research, complications, new treatments, technologies and therapy.
