PG - 203 LID - 10.1186/s12933-023-01907-3 [doi] LID - 203 AB - BACKGROUND: Albuminuria has been suggested as an atherosclerotic risk factor among the general population. However, whether this association will be amplified in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) is unknown. It is also unknown whether diabetes mellitus confounds the association. We aim to analyse the prognosis of elevated urine albumin creatinine ratio (uACR) in the CAD population with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS: This multi-center registry cohort study included 5,960 patients with CAD. Patients were divided into T2DM and non-T2DM group, and baseline uACR levels were assessed on three grades (low: uACR < 10 mg/g, middle: 10 mg/g /= 30 mg/g). The study endpoints were cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality. RESULTS: During the median follow-up of 2.2 [1.2-3.1] years, 310 (5.2%) patients died, of which 236 (4.0%) patients died of cardiovascular disease. CAD patients with elevated uACR had a higher risk of cardiovascular mortality (middle: HR, 2.32; high: HR, 3.22) than those with low uACR, as well as all-cause mortality. Elevated uACR increased nearly 1.5-fold risk of cardiovascular mortality (middle: HR, 2.33; high: HR, 2.34) among patients without T2DM, and increased 1.5- fold to 3- fold risk of cardiovascular mortality in T2DM patients (middle: HR, 2.49; high: HR, 3.98). CONCLUSIONS: Even mildly increased uACR could increase the risk of cardiovascular mortality in patients with CAD, especially when combined with T2DM. CI - (c) 2023.
