Clinical outcomes in patients with native valve infective endocarditis and diabetes mellitus
CONCLUSION: There is an increasing prevalence of DM in NVIE and it is associated with poorer outcomes. Further studies are crucial to identify the clinical, and sociodemographic contributors to this trend and develop strategies to mitigate its attendant risk.PMID:33552399 | PMC:PMC7821010 | DOI:10.4330/wjc.v13.i1.11
