Abstract

Purpose Little is known on the prevalence and prognostic importance of diabetes mellitus (DM) among individuals with heart failure (HF) in community-based cohorts.Methods Within Olmsted County, Minnesota, a random sample of all subjects with a first diagnosis of HF between 1979 and 1999 was validated using Framingham criteria. DM was validated using glycemic criteria.Results Among 665 subjects with HF (mean age 77+/-12 years, 46% male), 20% had prior DM. Subjects with DM were younger, had greater body mass index (BMI), and lower left ventricular ejection fraction than subjects without diabetes. The prevalence of DM increased markedly over time (3.8% per year; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.8 to 6.9; P=.024), independently of BMI, particularly in older subjects (odds ratio of having DM in 1999 compared with 1979 was 3.93 [95% CI, 1.57 to 9.83] in subjects > or = 75 years vs. 1.11 [95% CI, .40 to 3.05] in subjects <75 years). Five-year survival was 37% among subjects with DM versus 46% among subjects without (P=.017). The risk of death associated with DM differed markedly according to clinical coronary artery disease (CAD) (P=.025). Subjects with DM and no CAD had a higher risk of death (relative risk [RR]=1.79 [95% CI, 1.33 to 2.41]) than those with CAD (RR=1.11 [95% CI, .81 to 1.51]), independently of age, sex, BMI, renal function, calendar year of HF, comorbidity and EF.Conclusions Among community-dwelling patients with HF, the prevalence of DM increased markedly over time. DM is associated with a large increase in mortality, particularly among subjects without clinical CAD, underscoring the importance of aggressive management of DM in HF.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
