{Abstract}: <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>The long-term impact of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has not been thoroughly investigated yet. This study aimed to assess the long-term impact of T2DM after AMI.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>We analyzed the data of three nationwide observational studies from the French Registry of Acute ST-elevation and non-ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (FAST-MI) program, conducted over a 1-month period in 2005, 2010, and 2015. Patients presenting T2DM were classified as diabetic, and patients presenting type 1 diabetes mellitus were excluded. We identified factors related to all-cause death at 1-year follow-up and divided 1,897 subjects into two groups, paired based on their estimated 1-year probability of death as determined by a logistic regression model.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>A total of 9,181 AMI patients were included in the analysis, among them 2,038 (22.2%) had T2DM. Patients with diabetes were significantly older (68.2 ± 12.0 vs. 63.8 ± 14.4, p < 0.001) and had a higher prevalence of a prior history of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), or heart failure (22.5% vs. 13.0%, 7.1% vs. 3.1% and 6.7 vs. 3.8% respectively, p < 0.001 for all). Even after matching two groups of 1,897 patients based on propensity score for their 1-year probability of death, diabetes remained associated with long-term mortality, with an HR of 1.30, 95%CI (1.17-1.45), p < 0.001.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>T2DM per se has an adverse impact on long-term survival after myocardial infarction. Independently of the risk of short-term mortality, patients with diabetes who survived an AMI have a 30% higher risk of long-term mortality.
