Type 2 & other diabetes

Association of single‐point insulin sensitivity estimator index (single-point insulin sensitivity estimator (SPISE)) with future cardiovascular outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Higher SPISE index was independently associated with lower risk of future cardiovascular outcomes in type 2 diabetes patients after full adjustment for well-established metabolic confounders.

Study context

Population
Patients with T2D
Participants
10,190 patients
Exposure
Higher vs lower SPISE index
Outcome
Future cardiovascular outcomes:
  • MACE
  • Overall mortality
  • CVD mortality
  • Congestive heart failure
  • Major coronary events

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Association of higher SPISE index with cardiovascular outcomes (fully adjusted)
MACE: HR
0.94 (95% CI 0.90-0.98; p = 0.0026)
Overall mortality: HR
0.90 (95% CI 0.86-0.93; p < 0.0001)
CVD mortality: HR
0.85 (95% CI 0.79-0.92; p < 0.0001)
Congestive HF: HR
0.72 (95% CI 0.67-0.78; p < 0.0001)
Major coronary events: HR
0.91 (95% CI 0.87-0.95; p < 0.0001)

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Further findings

Nonlinear association: threshold values of SPISE index

Threshold for MACE
5.68
Threshold for overall mortality
5.71
Threshold for CVD mortality
4.64
Threshold for congestive heart failure (CHF)
4.48
Threshold for major coronary events
6.09
