Key result
Non-insulin treated type 2 diabetes mellitus was associated with a significantly higher risk of long-term major adverse cardiac events (OR 1.25) compared to patients without diabetes following percutaneous coronary intervention.
Why the study?
Do patients with non-insulin treated type 2 diabetes mellitus have worse clinical outcomes compared to patients without diabetes following PCI?
Meta-Analysis (n=52,451)
Do patients with non-insulin treated type 2 diabetes mellitus have worse clinical outcomes compared to patients without diabetes following PCI?
Patients with non-insulin treated type 2 diabetes have significantly higher short- and long-term MACEs, mortality, and revascularization rates compared to patients without diabetes following PCI.
Supports closer post-PCI monitoring in non-insulin treated T2DM; reinforces diabetes as a persistent risk modifier in meta-analyses.
BACKGROUND: Several studies showed Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) to be associated with worse adverse clinical outcomes compared to non-T2DM (NDM) following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). In addition, patients with insulin-treated T2DM (ITDM) showed worse clinical outcomes compared to patients with non-insulin treated T2DM (NITDM). Since NITDM and NDM have seldom been systematically analyzed, this study aimed to compare the short and long term adverse clinical outcomes observed in patients with NITDM and patients without T2DM following PCI. METHODS: Medline/PubMed, EMBASE and the Cochrane library were searched for Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) and observational studies comparing patients with (including ITDM and NITDM) and without T2DM following PCI. Endpoints included adverse clinical outcomes reported during a short and a long term follow up period. Odd Ratios (OR) and 95% Confidence Intervals (CI) in accordance with either a fixed or a random effects model appropriately, were calculated and the pooled analyses were performed with RevMan 5.3. RESULTS: Twelve studies consisting of a total number of 52,451 patients (14,863 NITDM and 37,588 NDM) were included. Patients with NITDM were found to have significantly higher short-term Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACEs) and mortality with OR: 1.63, 95% CI (1.17, 2.27); P = 0.004 and OR: 1.71, 95% CI (1.40, 2.10), P < 0.00001 respectively and higher long-term MACEs and mortality with OR: 1.25, 95% CI (1.12, 1.40), P = 0.0001 and OR: 1.32, 95% CI (1.19, 1.47), P < 0.00001 respectively compared to NDM following PCI. In addition, compared to NDM, long-term Target Vessel Revascularization (TVR) and Target Lesion Revascularization (TLR) were significantly higher in the NITDM group with OR: 1.36, 95% CI (1.18, 1.56), P < 0.0001 and OR: 1.32, 95% CI (1.10, 1.59), P = 0.003 respectively. However, even if an increased long-term stent thrombosis was observed in the NITDM group with OR: 1.13; 95% CI (0.91, 1.40), P = 0.28, the result was insignificant. CONCLUSION: Short and long term MACEs and mortality were significantly higher in patients with NITDM compared to patients without diabetes following PCI. Revascularization also significantly favored patients without T2DM. However, stent thrombosis was not significantly different.

Li et al. (2016) conducted a meta-analysis in Non-insulin treated type 2 diabetes mellitus following percutaneous coronary intervention (n=52,451). Non-insulin treated type 2 diabetes mellitus vs. Patients without type 2 diabetes mellitus was evaluated on Long-term Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACEs) (OR 1.25, 95% CI 1.12, 1.40, p=0.0001). Non-insulin treated type 2 diabetes mellitus was associated with a significantly higher risk of long-term major adverse cardiac events (OR 1.25) compared to patients without diabetes following percutaneous coronary intervention.
