Yes - adjusted for all classes of HF meds. Thanks for reading me so thoroughly! I think this is a really interesting topic.

Was the effect of CHF on type 2 DM adjusted for the use of thiazide diuretics, which promote insulin resistance?
Thiazide diuretics are used widely by congestive heart failure (CHF) patients, either alone or in combination with loop diuretics (for synergy). Thiazides are well known to decrease insulin sensitivity and lead to impaired fasting glucose and frank type 2 diabetes. Was this medication side-effect adjusted for in the calculations showing that CHF increases the risk for type 2 diabetes ??
