Association between stress hyperglycemia ratio index and all-cause mortality in critically ill patients with atrial fibrillation: a retrospective study using the MIMIC-IV database.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) was developed to mitigate the influence of long-term chronic glycemic factors on stress hyperglycemia levels, which are associated with adverse clinical events, particularly cardiovascular events. However, studies examining the SHR index and its prognostic significance in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) are lacking. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between the SHR index and all-cause mortality in critically ill patients with AF upon Intensive Care Unit admission.

Methods

The patients' data were extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. All patients were categorized into four groups based on the SHR index. The outcomes include both primary and secondary endpoints, w
