Abstract
Background/Synopsis
Despite the clinical relevance, there is a scarcity of comprehensive studies evaluating the clinical outcomes of patients hospitalized with both diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and acute pancreatitis (AP).
Objective/Purpose
Consequently, this study aims to assess the clinical outcomes in this specific patient population.
Methods
We queried the National Inpatient Sample from 2017-2021 for adult patients hospitalized with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and acute pancreatitis (AP). The primary outcome was inpatient mortality. Secondary outcomes included cardiac arrest, gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB), intubation, length of stay (LOS), and total hospital charge. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to estimate clinical outcomes. P-value < 0.05 was considered significant.
Results
We analyzed 1,593,213 hospitalizations with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and identified 75,769 cases (4.8%) with concurrent acute pancreatitis (AP). The cohorts with DKA and AP versus DKA without AP had a mean age of 44.7 vs. 46.4 years; male prevalence of 39.7% vs. 49.1%; and White ethnicity distribution of 50.2% vs. 54.8%. Clinical outcomes indicated a hospitalization mortality rate of 3.8% vs. 3.7% (OR 1.22, CI 1.12 - 1.33); a cardiac arrest incidence of 1.8% vs. 1.7% (OR 1.15, CI 1.01 - 1.30); an intubation requirement of 9.7% vs. 6.4% (OR 1.69, CI 1.60 - 1.79); a gastrointestinal bleeding rate of 5.7% vs. 3.9% (OR 1.54, CI 1.44 - 1.66); a length of stay (LOS) of 6.7 days vs. 5.1 days (IRR 1.36, CI 1.34 - 1.40); and total hospital charges of $20,727.41 vs. $14,586.77 (IRR 1.44, CI 1.40 - 1.48). All p-values were less than 0.05.
Conclusions
This study highlights the significant differences in clinical outcomes between patients hospitalized with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and acute pancreatitis (AP) compared to those with DKA alone. Patients with concurrent DKA and AP exhibited higher rates of mortality, cardiac arrest, intubation, gastrointestinal bleeding, longer hospital stays, and increased hospital charges. These findings underscore the need for heightened clinical awareness and proactive management strategies for patients with both DKA and AP to mitigate these adverse outcomes. Further research is warranted to explore the underlying mechanisms and develop targeted interventions to improve prognosis in this high-risk population.
期刊介绍:
Because the scope of clinical lipidology is broad, the topics addressed by the Journal are equally diverse. Typical articles explore lipidology as it is practiced in the treatment setting, recent developments in pharmacological research, reports of treatment and trials, case studies, the impact of lifestyle modification, and similar academic material of interest to the practitioner.
Sections of Journal of clinical lipidology will address pioneering studies and the clinicians who conduct them, case studies, ethical standards and conduct, professional guidance such as ATP and NCEP, editorial commentary, letters from readers, National Lipid Association (NLA) news and upcoming event information, as well as abstracts from the NLA annual scientific sessions and the scientific forums held by its chapters, when appropriate.
