Impact of stress hyperglycemia ratio on mortality in patients with critical acute myocardial infarction: insight from american MIMIC-IV and the chinese Cardiorenal ImprovemeNt II (CIN-II) study

Cardiovasc DiabetolPublished Retrospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Among critical AMI patients, elevated SHR is significantly associated with and 1-year and long-term all-cause mortality, especially in those without diabetes, and the results are consistently in both American and Chinese cohorts.
