Background: Diabetics have a greater death rate during the acute phase of a myocardial infarction (MI) and a higher post-infarction morbidity rate. The goal of this research was to find out how common diabetes is as a risk factor for acute myocardial infarction.
Methods: Each patient's thorough
demographic information was recorded, including age, gender, weight, BMI, blood
pressure, smoking and drinking history, as well as past clinical and medical
history. The patients' blood was collected to determine random blood glucose
and HbA1c values. On the second and fifth days of admission, fasting blood
glucose levels were assessed.
The patients were on average 66 years old, with 63.5 percent being males and
only 36.5 percent being females. Obese or overweight patients with high
cholesterol and triglyceride levels comprised the majority of MI patients
admitted to hospitals. Of the 104 patients, 59 (56.7%) did not have diabetes,
while 29 (27.9%) were diabetics. During their stay in the hospital, 11 (10.6%)
of them were diagnosed with diabetes.
