SGLT2i treatment in T2DM is associated with a reduced incidence of ISR-related events, independently of glycemic control (BMC Medicine)

J-curve relationship between long term glycemic control and mortality in diabetic patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
The less strict glycemic control in diabetic patients with AMI would be optimal for preventing mortality, especially in elderly patients (Cardiovascular Diabetology)
Diabetes, Glycated Hemoglobin, and the Risk of Myocardial Infarction in Women and Men: A Prospective Cohort Study of the UK Biobank
Although the incidence of MI was higher in men than women, the presence of diabetes is associated with a greater excess relative risk of MI in women. However, each 1% higher HbA1c was associated with an 18% greater risk of MI in both women and men (Diabetes Care)
Association of Diabetes Mellitus With Health Status Outcomes in Young Women and Men After Acute Myocardial Infarction: Results From the VIRGO Study
At baseline, young adults with diabetes mellitus had poorer health status than those without diabetes mellitus. After AMI, however, they experienced significant improvements and diabetes mellitus was not associated with worse angina, SAQ‐physical limitations, mental functioning, and quality of life, after adjustment for baseline covariates (Journal of the American Heart Association)
Impact of acute diabetes decompensation on outcomes of diabetic patients admitted with ST-elevation myocardial infarction
Decompensated diabetes complicates ~ 1.5% of STEMI admissions in diabetic patients. It is associated with lower rates of referral for angiography and revascularization, and a negative differential impact on in-hospital morbidity and mortality and cost (Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome)
Two-hour post-challenge glucose is a better predictor of adverse outcome after myocardial infarction than fasting or admission glucose in patients without diabetes
AGT is under-diagnosed on current guidelines. 2h-PG is a better predictor of prognosis compared to APG and FPG (Acta Diabetologica)
Risks of Myocardial Infarction, Death, and Diabetes in Identical Twin Pairs With Different Body Mass Indexes
In MZ twin pairs, higher BMI was not associated with an increased risk of MI or death but was associated with the onset of diabetes (JAMA Internal Medicine)
Sulfonylurea use is associated with larger infarct size in patients with diabetes and ST-elevation myocardial infarction
This study adds further evidence to the proposed causal relationship between sulfonylureas and adverse cardiovascular events by observing a significant difference in infarct size among type 2 diabetes patients presenting with STEMI (International Journal of Cardiology)
