Diabetes complications

Clinical characteristics and in‐hospital mortality among insulin pump users with acute coronary syndrome in the predominantly open‐loop era: A UK ‐wide MINAP registry analysis

Diabet MedPublished Retrospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

CSII users admitted with ACS represented a more complex group with haemodynamic compromise and higher unadjusted mortality.
