Aims/hypothesis
Type 2 diabetes is associated with a high risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD), but the risk of dying from another cause (non-SCD) is proportionally even higher. The aim of the study was to identify easily available ECG-derived features associated with SCD, while considering the competing risk of dying from non-SCD causes.
Methods
In the SURDIAGENE (Survie, Diabete de type 2 et Genetique) French prospective cohort of individuals with type 2 diabetes, 15 baseline ECG parameters were interpreted among 1362 participants (mean age 65 years; HbA1c 62±17 mmol/mol [7.8±1.5%]; 58% male). Competing risk models assessed the prognostic value of clinical and ECG parameters for SCD after adjusting for age, sex, history of myocardial infarction, N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), HbA1c and eGFR. The prospective Mini-Finland cohort study was used to externally validate our findings.
Results
During median follow-up of 7.4 years, 494 deaths occurred including 94 SCDs. After adjustment, frontal QRS-T angle ≥90° (sub-distribution HR [sHR] 1.68 [95% CI 1.04, 2.69], p=0.032) and NT-proBNP level (sHR 1.26 [95% CI 1.06, 1.50] per 1 log, p=0.009) were significantly associated with a higher risk of SCD. Nevertheless, frontal QRS-T angle was the only marker not to be associated with causes of death other than SCD (sHR 1.08 [95% CI 0.84, 1.39], p=0.553 ). These findings were replicated in the Mini-Finland study subset of participants with diabetes (sHR 2.22 [95% CI 1.05, 4.71], p=0.04 for SCD and no association for other causes of death).
Conclusions/interpretation
QRS-T angle was specifically associated with SCD risk and not with other causes of death, opening an avenue for refining SCD risk stratification in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

QRS-T 角:它是与 2 型糖尿病心源性猝死相关的特定参数吗?SURDIAGENE 和 Mini-Finland 前瞻性队列的结果
目标/假设
2 型糖尿病与心源性猝死 (SCD) 的高风险相关,但死于其他原因(非 SCD)的风险比例更高。该研究的目的是确定与 SCD 相关的容易获得的心电图衍生特征,同时考虑死于非 SCD 原因的竞争风险。
方法
在 SURDIAGENE (Survie, Diabete de type 2 et Genetique) 法国 2 型糖尿病患者前瞻性队列中,对 1362 名参与者(平均年龄 65 岁;HbA 1c 62 ±17 mmol/mol [7.8±1.5])中的 15 个基线心电图参数进行了解释%];58% 男性)。竞争性风险模型在调整年龄、性别、心肌梗塞病史、N 端 B 型利钠肽原 (NT-proBNP)、HbA 1c和 eGFR 后,评估了 SCD 的临床和心电图参数的预后价值。前瞻性迷你芬兰队列研究用于外部验证我们的研究结果。
结果
在 7.4 年的中位随访期间,发生了 494 例死亡,其中包括 94 例 SCD。调整后,额叶 QRS-T 角≥90°(子分布 HR [sHR] 1.68 [95% CI 1.04, 2.69],p =0.032)和 NT-proBNP 水平(sHR 1.26 [95% CI 1.06, 1.50]/ 1 log,p = 0.009)与较高的 SCD 风险显着相关。然而,额叶 QRS-T 角是除 SCD 之外唯一与死亡原因无关的标志物(sHR 1.08 [95% CI 0.84, 1.39],p = 0.553)。这些结果在迷你芬兰研究糖尿病参与者子集中得到了重复(sHR 2.22 [95% CI 1.05, 4.71], SCD p = 0.04,与其他死因无关)。
结论/解释
QRS-T 角与 SCD 风险特别相关,但与其他死亡原因无关,这为细化 2 型糖尿病患者的 SCD 风险分层开辟了途径。
