The first tertile was significantly associated with higher 4-year mortality (HR 1.60 [95% CI: 1.22–2.11]; p = 0.001) and the third tertile showed a trend towards higher mortality (HR 1.29 [95% CI: 0.97–1.70]; p = 0.078)).

While the average chronic glucose level increased in parallel with the increase of 4-year mortality in the whole population (showing a trend towards significance in subjects with diabetes), the glucose levels at admission presented a U-shape curve association.
