Summary of "Impact of Diabetes Mellitus on Long-term Clinical Outcomes of Patients on Chronic Hemodialysis after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention."

Background: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is known to correlate with poor outcome in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This study examines the impact of diabetes mellitus (DM) on the long-term outcome of patients with ESRD on chronic hemodialysis. Methods: A cohort of patients with ESRD on chronic hemodialysis, who underwent PCI with drug-eluting stents, was followed for 1 year. The clinical outcome in this population was compared retrospectively based on the presence of DM. Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) as the composite of all-cause death, Q-wave myocardial infraction and target lesion revascularization (TLR), as well as TLR as an individual outcome, were the main end points of the study. Results: In the study cohort (n = 198), 48.5% had DM. Diabetic patients were more commonly female. The lesion characteristics were similar between groups except for more frequent saphenous vein graft intervention in nondiabetics. At 1-year follow-up there was no difference in the rate of MACE between diabetic and nondiabetic patients (40.4% vs. 39.3%, respectively, p = 0.89), driven primarily by a very high mortality rate (1-year overall mortality of 33.5%). After adjustment for the relevant clinical co-variables, DM was not associated with the composite end point. However, diabetic patients had a significantly higher incidence of 1-year TLR compared to nondiabetics (13.8% vs. 3.6%, respectively, p = 0.04). Conclusion: The prognosis of patients with ESRD after PCI is dismal with a very high overall mortality rate regardless of the presence of DM. Patients with ESRD appear to be at higher risk for the need of revascularization. (J Interven Cardiol 2011;**:1-9).

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions

Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

A subclass of DIABETES MELLITUS that is not INSULIN-responsive or dependent (NIDDM). It is characterized initially by INSULIN RESISTANCE and HYPERINSULINEMIA; and eventually by GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; HYPERGLYCEMIA; and overt diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop KETOSIS but often exhibit OBESITY.

Diabetes Mellitus, Experimental

Diabetes mellitus induced experimentally by administration of various diabetogenic agents or by PANCREATECTOMY.

Polyuria

Urination of a large volume of urine with an increase in urinary frequency, commonly seen in diabetes (DIABETES MELLITUS; DIABETES INSIPIDUS).

Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.

Rats, Inbred Bb

A strain of Rattus norvegicus which is a model for spontaneous insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, INSULIN-DEPENDENT).
