Overview

Systematic review of case reports reveals DKA and ACS often coexist, highlighting the need for cardiac evaluation.

Key Points

  • Nearly half of the cases of co-occurring DKA and ACS lacked typical symptoms, stressing the need for vigilance.
  • Among the 21 reported cases, ST-segment elevation was present in 61.9%, pointing to serious cardiac involvement.
  • Patients receiving SGLT2 inhibitors developed euglycemic DKA, indicating unique presentations in some individuals.
  • All patients survived after intervention, suggesting that timely management is critical in these complex cases.
