Diabetes and risk of heart failure in people with and without cardiovascular disease: systematic review and meta-analysis

Diabetes Res Clin PractPublished Systematic review and meta-analysis of observational cohort studies

Authors' conclusion

Peoplewith T2D, compared to those without diabetes, have similar increased risk of HF, regardless of CVD prevalence. Strategiesproven to lower HF risk in T2D individuals should be prioritized for those with and without CVD.

Pooled result

As reported in the abstract

Incident HF, T2D vs without diabetes, by CVD status
T2D vs Without diabetesRelative risk (95% CI)
With CVD
1.61(1.35–1.92)
Without CVD
1.78(1.60–1.99)
Unspecified CVD prevalence
2.02(1.75–2.33)
Meta-regression: no significant difference in heart failure (HF) risk in T2D with vs without CVD
P = 0.232
