| Abstract | ||
| Diabetes mellitus can also be termed as ‘DM’. It is one of the few conditions which stays once one gets it. Its increasing prevalence is leading to the increase of morbidity and mortality related to heart problems. This article examines the possible relationship between raised Glycated Hemoglobin Levels and (HbA1c) as well as the presence of CAD (Coronary Artery Disease). Aim of the Study: Having primary STEMI and very low range glycated hemoglobin levels at admission may indicate some tendency towards having risk of worst MCAEs at 1 year. Materials and Methods: The research took place between July to December of 2023 at As-Salam Port Said Hospital and El Nasr Hospital. This study's participants included 150 type II diabetics who were previously diagnosed with STEMI. Taking part in the research was done through a non-probability consecutive random sampling method. RESULTS: Out of a total of 150 patients, 89 (58.9%) were male, while the remaining were female. The average age was 55.4 ± 11.2 years. Diabetes and hypertension were the most prevalent risk factors, with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) as the presentation. CONCLUSION: The study shows the correlational rise in HbA1c’s concentration along with the rise in the number of cases of CAD in people with diabetes. According to the results, increased levels of HbA1c correlate with more advanced stages of CAD. Further studies with bigger populations are warranted to study more exhaustively the possible impacts that HbA1c has on the coronary system. | ||
