The global burden of ischemic heart disease attributed to high fasting plasma glucose: Data from 1990 to 2019.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. High fasting plasma glucose (FPG) is an increasing risk factor for IHD. We aimed to explore the long-term trends of high FPG-attributed IHD mortality during 1990-2019.

Methods

Data were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 database. Deaths, disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs), the age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) and age-standardized DALY rate (ASDR) of IHD attributable to high FPG were estimated by sex, socio-demographic index (SDI), regions and age. Estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) were calculated to assess the trends of ASMR and ASDR of IHD attributable to high FPG.

Results

IHD attributable to high FPG deaths increased from 1.04 million (0.62-1.63)
