Authors' conclusion

SHR was a significant predictor for adverse CV outcomes in CTVD patients with or without diabetes, which suggested that it could aid in the risk stratification in this particular population regardless of glucose metabolism status.

Discrimination and reclassification

Adding stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) to base model of traditional risk factors significantly improved C-index, net reclassification and integrated discrimination
