Impact of early postoperative blood glucose variability on serum endocan level in cardiac surgery patients: a sub study of the ENDOLUNG observational study

Cardiovasc DiabetolPublished Post hoc analysis of the ENDOLUNG observational study

Authors' conclusion

Early postoperative glycemic variability within 48 h after planned cardiac surgery does not appear to be correlated with postoperative serum endocan level.

Study context

Population
Adults undergoing planned isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgeryanalysed
Participants
177 adults
Primary endpoint
Pearson's correlation between postoperative glycemic variability (coefficient of variability (CV) of blood glucose) and serum endocan level
Follow-up
24 and 48 hours after surgery
Methodological detailssingle-centre
  • Single-centre

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

Correlation between glycemic CV and serum endocan

CV48 vs Endocan48, Pearson r

0.150 (0.001 to 0.290) (95% CI)

CV24 vs Endocan24, Pearson r

0.080 (−0.070 to 0.220) (95% CI)

Further findings

Postoperative glycemic variability

Median CV24
18% (range 7 to 39%)
Median CV48
20% (range 7 to 35%)
