Prognostic value of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin for major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

High-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) is associated with cardiovascular outcomes in the general population, but the prognostic value of hs-cTn in the diabetic population remains inconclusive. This study aimed to systematically review current evidence regarding the association between hs-cTn and the prognosis of diabetic patients.

Methods

MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Database were searched from inception to May, 2023. Observational studies that investigated the prognostic value of hs-cTn in diabetic patients were included in this meta-analysis. Studies were excluded if they did not report outcomes of interest, or urine hs-cTn were measured. Two independent investigators extracted and analyzed the data according to the PRISMA guidelines.
