The well-known association of diabetes with cardiovascular disease significantly impacts the prognosis and management of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), commonly known as a heart attack. Temporal trends and association of risk factors of diabetes mellitus (DM) patients in AMI cases were explored from 27,648 AMI cases of the cardiology registry between January 1991 and May 2022. 12313 (49.5%) of the total AMI patients were diabetes. The patients were on average 7 years older and significantly higher in mortality, hypertension, obesity, cardiorespiratory fitness, and old myocardial infarction than the non-DM patients. Chest pain, dizziness, palpitation, and shortness of breath (SOB) were more common in DM patients than the non-DM at the time of admission. Age, female, and non-Qatari patients were independently associated with DM after adjusting for other significant risk factors. An increasing trend of DM patients was also observed as per increasing quantile. | Figure 1: Distribution of diabetes mellitus patients in acute myocardial infarction cases

Key findings from the univariate and multivariate analysis:
- There were more non-Qatari nationals with than National
- Increasing trend observed over 30 years
- Females were two times more likely to be affected than males
- Patients with the disease had a higher inhospital mortality than those without
- Increasing age were more likely to have the disease.
