Long Term Excess Mortality of Acute Myocardial Infarction in Patients With and Without Diabetes: A Population-based Cohort Study

October 28, 2015 updated by: Oras Alabas, University of Leeds
Diabetes is key risk factor for death following acute myocardial infarction. However, the long-term excess risk of death associated with diabetes following acute myocardial infarction not known. Investigators aimed to determine the long-term excess risk of death associated with diabetes among patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-STEMI (NSTEMI) after adjustment for multimorbidity, risk factors and cardiac treatments.
