RERayane El-Khoury SMShadi Mahmoud SDSoha R. Dargham

Key Result

Diabetes independently increases the risk of in-hospital and one-year heart failure in patients with myocarditis.

Key Points

To evaluate the impact of diabetes on heart failure risk in patients with myocarditis.
Conducted a propensity-matched analysis using a nationwide database.
Included patients diagnosed with myocarditis.
Assessed in-hospital and one-year heart failure outcomes.
Diabetes independently increased the risk of in-hospital heart failure.
Diabetes independently increased the risk of one-year heart failure.

Structured PICO

Does diabetes increase the risk of in-hospital and one-year heart failure in patients with myocarditis?

Population

Patients with myocarditis

Intervention

Diabetes (as an exposure/risk factor)

Comparator

Propensity-matched patients without diabetes

Outcome

In-hospital and one-year heart failurehard clinical

Diabetes serves as an independent risk factor for both short-term (in-hospital) and medium-term (one-year) heart failure in patients presenting with myocarditis.

Main Result

Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%

Abstract

Diabetes independently increases the risk of in-hospital and one-year heart failure in patients with myocarditis.
