Glycated haemoglobin is increased in critically ill patients with stress hyperglycaemia: Implications for risk of diabetes in survivors of critical illness

摘要

It remains uncertain if stress hyperglycaemia (SH) indicates a long-term predisposition to the development of type 2 diabetes. We conducted a retrospective observational study in critically ill patients and found SH to be associated with an increased HbA1c, which may indicate an increased risk of type 2 diabetes.
