Association between intensive glycemic control and mortality in elderly diabetic patients in the primary care: A retrospective cohort study

• Both high and low HbA1c were associated with higher mortality in elderly diabetics. • A 3-fold increase in odd ratio for mortality was noted when the HbA1c was <6.0%. • Risk factors for mortality included smoking, low BMI, high LDL, and sulphonylureas. • Aggressive glycaemic control should be a...

Résumé:• Both high and low HbA1c were associated with higher mortality in elderly diabetics. • A 3-fold increase in odd ratio for mortality was noted when the HbA1c was <6.0%. • Risk factors for mortality included smoking, low BMI, high LDL, and sulphonylureas. • Aggressive glycaemic control should be approached cautiously in the elderly.
