Differential Effect of Glycosylated Hemoglobin Value and Antidiabetic Treatment on the Risk of 30-day Readmission Following a Hospitalization for Acu…
2015
In patients with heart failure and type 2 diabetes, low glycosylated hemoglobin has been related with higher risk of mortality but information regarding morbidity is scarce. We sought to evaluate the association between glycosylated hemoglobin and 30-day readmission in patients with type 2 diabetes and acute heart failure.Glycosylated hemoglobin was measured before discharge in 835 consecutive patients with acute heart failure and type 2 diabetes. Cox regression analysis adapted for competing events was used.Mean (standard deviation) age was 72.9 (9.6) years and median glycosylated hemoglobin was 7.2% (6.5%-8.0%). Patients treated with insulin or insulin/sulfonylurea/meglitinides were 41.1%…

Introduccion y objetivos En los pacientes con insuficiencia cardiaca y diabetes tipo 2, las cifras bajas de glucohemoglobina se han relacionado con un riesgo mas elevado de mortalidad, pero la informacion relativa a la morbilidad es escasa. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la asociacion existente entre la glucohemoglobina y el reingreso en un plazo de 30 dias en los pacientes con diabetes tipo 2 e insuficiencia cardiaca aguda. Metodos Se determino la glucohemoglobina antes del alta en 835 pacientes consecutivos con insuficiencia cardiaca aguda y diabetes tipo 2. Se utilizo un analisis de regresion de Cox adaptado para eventos competitivos. Resultados La media de edad fue de 72,9 ± 9,…
The Effects of Selective Stellate Ganglion Manipulation on Ventricular Refractoriness and Excitability
1992
The effects of selective stellate ganglion stimulation or stellectomy on ventricular excitability were studied in 30 open chest mongrel dogs anesthetized with alpha-chloralose. The effective refractory period (ERP) and strength interval curves (stimulus intensity [S2] = twice the diastolic threshold [ERP], and 2, 3, 5, 7, and 14 mA) were determined using bipolar epicardial electrodes placed in the mid-anterior wall of the right ventricle (RV) and the mid-posterolateral wall of the left ventricle (LV) during left stellate ganglion stimulation (LSGSt, n = 8) or right stellate ganglion stimulation (RSGSt, n = 8), or after left stellectomy (LSGEx, n = 7) or right stellectomy (RSGEx, n = 7). LSG…
