Abstract
Aims: Early post-transplant hyperglycaemia (EPTH) and post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) are common following solid organ transplantation and may be associated with adverse outcomes. We studied the prevalence of EPTH and cumulative 5-year prevalence of PTDM in a modern cohort of heart transplant recipients who were free from diabetes at baseline as well as the association of EPTH, PTDM and pre-transplant T2DM with adverse transplant-related outcomes.
Methods: Retrospective cohort study of heart transplant recipients followed for 5 years at a single centre in Sydney, Australia.
Results: A total of 141 patients were included, of whom 25 had pre-existing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and 116 were free from diabetes at baseline. In patients without pre-existing T2DM, 88 of 116 (76%) experienced EPTH, which was associated with higher rates of acute rejection and hospitalizations, and lower 5-year survival. PTDM developed in 45 of 116 (39%) patients, all of whom had experienced EPTH. Both PTDM and pre-existing T2DM were associated with increased rates of graft rejection and hospitalization, and greater than three-fold increased likelihood of death compared to patients that remained free from diabetes.
Conclusion: EPTH and PTDM are highly prevalent following cardiac transplantation. EPTH develops within days of transplant and is strongly associated with progression to PTDM. Pre-existing T2DM, PTDM and EPTH are associated with greater hospitalization, increased episodes of rejection and worse 5-year survival compared to patients who remained free from diabetes during follow-up.
期刊介绍:
Diabetic Medicine, the official journal of Diabetes UK, is published monthly simultaneously, in print and online editions.
The journal publishes a range of key information on all clinical aspects of diabetes mellitus, ranging from human genetic studies through clinical physiology and trials to diabetes epidemiology. We do not publish original animal or cell culture studies unless they are part of a study of clinical diabetes involving humans. Categories of publication include research articles, reviews, editorials, commentaries, and correspondence. All material is peer-reviewed.
We aim to disseminate knowledge about diabetes research with the goal of improving the management of people with diabetes. The journal therefore seeks to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas between clinicians and researchers worldwide. Topics covered are of importance to all healthcare professionals working with people with diabetes, whether in primary care or specialist services.
Surplus generated from the sale of Diabetic Medicine is used by Diabetes UK to know diabetes better and fight diabetes more effectively on behalf of all people affected by and at risk of diabetes as well as their families and carers.”
