Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rates of MACE

    MACE was defined as the composite of all-cause death, MI, and repeat revascularization. The diagnosis of MI was made if patients were hospitalized with primary diagnostic codes related to MI (ICD-10 I21, I22) during follow-up period. In a previous validation study, the accuracy of diagnosis of MI in NHIS data was 93%.16 Unplanned revascularization was defined as presence of procedure codes for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) after index date.

    Up to 5 years

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Rates of Diabetic complications

    Up to 5 years

  • Rates of All-cause death

    Up to 5 years

  • Rates of Myocardial infarction

    Up to 5 years

  • Rates of Unplanned Revascularization

    Up to 5 years

  • Rates of Ischemic stroke

    Up to 5 years

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients diagnosed with diabetes from 2018 onward who reported being a "current smoker" at a health examination within the 4 years prior to the diabetes diagnosis, and who could be classified after diagnosis as either continued combustible cigarette smoking ("Current") or e-cigarette use (partial or full transition).

You may qualify if:

  • Patients diagnosed with diabetes who reported being a "current smoker" at a health examination within the 4 years prior to the diabetes diagnosis.

You may not qualify if:

  • age \<40 years or ≥75 years
  • Pre-existing AMI before diabetes diagnosis
  • Pre-existing Revascularization before diabetes diagnosis
  • Pre-existing diabetes complications before diabetes diagnosis
  • Pre-existing cancer before diabetes diagnosis
  • Death within 6 months of the first health examination after diabetes diagnosis
  • Cancer within 6 months of the first health examination after diabetes diagnosis
