Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to explore how admission glucose levels relate to short-term in-hospital death rates and major bleeding in patients with pulmonary embolism (PE), distinguishing between those with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus (DMT2).
  • - Researchers analyzed 1165 PE patients, categorizing them based on admission glucose levels and diabetes status; they found that higher glucose levels were linked to significantly higher mortality rates in patients with DMT2.
  • - The results showed that DMT2 patients had higher overall and PE-related mortality compared to non-DMT2 patients, particularly those in the highest glucose quartile, highlighting the need for close monitoring of glucose levels in these patients.
