Association between the haemoglobin glycation index and 30-day and 365-day mortality in patients with heart failure admitted to the intensive care unit.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The hemoglobin glycation index (HGI) represents the difference between the observed and predicted values of haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). However, the association between HGI and prognosis of heart failure (HF) is not completely clarified yet and requires more investigation. This study aimed to explore the connection between HGI and mortality in HF patients.

Methods

The data for the study were derived from the MIMIC-IV database from 2008 to 2019, a publicly available clinical database in intensive care. A linear regression equation between HbA1c and fasting blood glucose (FBG) was established to calculate predicted HbA1c. The endpoints were 30-day and 365-day all-cause mortality. Kaplan-Meier analysis was utilized to compare survival rates across groups differentiated
