Mean blood glucose and glycemic variability are independent predictors of mortality in patients with pulmonary embolism, with ICU mortality being 12.99% and in-hospital mortality 20.90%.
Cohort (n=1,493)
Yes
In critically ill patients with severe pulmonary embolism, both elevated mean blood glucose and glycemic variability are independent predictors of ICU and in-hospital mortality, with glycemic variability exhibiting an inverted U-shaped relationship.
Effect estimate: OR 1.010 (95% CI 1.006-1.014)
p-value: p=<0.001
MBG and CV are independent predictors of mortality in critically ill patients with PE, suggesting that optimal glycemic control may benefit this population.
Tan et al. (Thu,) conducted a cohort in Pulmonary Embolism (n=1,493). null vs. null was evaluated on ICU mortality (OR 1.010, 95% CI 1.006-1.014, p=<0.001). Mean blood glucose and glycemic variability are independent predictors of mortality in patients with pulmonary embolism, with ICU mortality being 12.99% and in-hospital mortality 20.90%.
