Abstract
Objective: This study evaluates the impact of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) changes before and after heart failure (HF) diagnosis on all-cause mortality, offering insights into personalized HF management strategies.
Methods: A prospective cohort study based on the Kailuan study included 3533 Patients with HF after excluding those with prior HF, malignancies, or missing FPG data. FPG levels were measured before and after HF diagnosis and categorized into five groups: significant decrease (Q1), mild decrease (Q2), stable (Q3), mild increase (Q4), and significant increase (Q5). The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality, with follow-up until December 31, 2021.
Results: Over a mean follow-up of 5.63±3.80 years, 1446 deaths occurred. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed increased mortality with larger FPG changes (P<0.0001). Multivariate Cox regression indicated higher mortality risks in Q1 and Q5 compared to Q3, with hazard ratios of 1.37 (95% CI: 1.12-1.67) and 1.35 (95% CI: 1.12-1.62), respectively.
Conclusion: FPG changes before and after HF diagnosis are independent predictors of mortality, with significant changes linked to higher risks, underscoring the need for individualized glucose management in Patients with HF.
期刊介绍:
''Cardiology'' features first reports on original clinical, preclinical and fundamental research as well as ''Novel Insights from Clinical Experience'' and topical comprehensive reviews in selected areas of cardiovascular disease. ''Editorial Comments'' provide a critical but positive evaluation of a recent article. Papers not only describe but offer critical appraisals of new developments in non-invasive and invasive diagnostic methods and in pharmacologic, nutritional and mechanical/surgical therapies. Readers are thus kept informed of current strategies in the prevention, recognition and treatment of heart disease. Special sections in a variety of subspecialty areas reinforce the journal''s value as a complete record of recent progress for all cardiologists, internists, cardiac surgeons, clinical physiologists, pharmacologists and professionals in other areas of medicine interested in current activity in cardiovascular diseases.
