Abstract：Objective To review the relationship between diabetes mellitus (DM) and intramural aortic hematoma (IMH).Methods IMH patients were chosen into IMH group (n=186) and non-IMH patient, with matched sex and age with IMH group, were chosen into control group (n=372) by applying 1 to 2 matched casecontrol study.The data of population statistic materials, clinical features and risk factors were collected in all chosen population.The relationship between DM and IMH was analyzed by using multi-factor non-conditional Logistic regression model.Results The difference in age and sex had no statistical significance between 2 groups (all P＞0.05).The percentages of smoking and hypertensive cases were significantly higher in IMH group than those in control group (all P＜0.001), and incidence of DM was significantly lower in IMH group than that in control group (3.8％vs.12.9％, P＜0.001).The results of single-factor Logistic regression analysis (OR=0.11, 95％CI:0.04～0.28) and multi-factor Logistic regression analysis (OR=0.09, 95％CI:0.06～0.31) showed that DM was a protective factor of IMH.Conclusion The incidence of DM is lower in IMH patients.DM was negatively correlated to IMH, and higher blood sugar may play a protective role in development course of IMH.
