“…This raises the question of whether patients in the NGT group have a transient stress-induced disturbance in glycemic tolerance due to acute myocardial infarction. A similar pattern of stress-induced post-meal glycemic changes has been reported after prosthetic surgery [27]. Acute stressinduced hyperglycemia is also supported by a study where 61% of non-diabetic patients with acute stroke had AGT at discharge, but after re-investigation at three months more than half of them were categorized as having NGT [28].…”

“…We controlled for multiple factors, including age, sex, diabetes, surgical type, physical status, emergency procedure, duration of operation and blood transfusion units that collectively confounded the association between glucose levels and SSIs. It is possible that elevations in post-operative glucose levels among those who developed SSI may reflect the natural glycemic dysregulation that occurs with surgery, the extent to which could be correlated with specific procedures that increase the risk of infections [28].…”

“…In thoracic surgery, postoperative hyperglycemia increases the risk of mediastinitis, and conversely, strict glycemic control postoperatively has resulted in lower infection rates (Furnary and Wu 2006). Although perioperative hyperglycemia occurs in up to three quarters of non-diabetic patients undergoing knee or hip replacement (Pili-Floury et al 2009), there have been no studies evaluating the association between perioperative hyperglycemia and postoperative infection rate in the field of joint replacement surgery.…”
