The association of diabetes mellitus (DM) with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) response and cardiovascular outcomes in Asian patients with heart failure (HF) is unclear. This study aims to investigate the effects of DM on CRT response and cardiovascular outcomes in Asian HF patients. Consecutive Asian HF patients receiving CRT were enrolled in the Prospective Evaluation of Asian with CRT for Heart Failure (PEACH) study from 2011 to 2017.
