Coronary artery disease and diabetes mellitus.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Near-normal glycemic control does not reduce cardiovascular events. For many patients with 1- or 2-vessel coronary artery disease, there is little benefit from any revascularization procedure over optimal medical therapy. For multivessel coronary disease, randomized trials demonstrated the superiority of coronary artery b...

A Propensity Score Analysis of Renal Dysfunction in Patients after On-Pump and Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

INTRODUCTION- Cardiovascular disease has emerged as a major health burden worldwide with coronary artery disease [CAD] causing highest mortality and morbidity. Coronary revascularization is the preferred treatment for patients with multivessel CAD. Based on the application of cardiopulmonary bypass [CPB], Coronary revascularization can be on-pump [OPCAB] or off-pump [CABG].The CPB is known to h...

Prevalence and procedural outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary artery bypass grafting in patients with diabetes and multivessel coronary artery disease.

BACKGROUND Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is used with increasing frequency in patients with diabetes and multivessel disease. This study investigated evolving revascularization strategies in the State of Washington. METHODS The Clinical Outcomes Assessment Program captures all revascularization in the State of Washington and was used to compare diabetic patients with multivessel di...

Is surgery still the preferred option for coronary revascularisation in diabetics with multivessel coronary disease?

In the UK 2.5 million people have diabetes. Three quarters of all deaths in patients with diabetes are caused by coronary artery disease. It has been projected that 25–30% of all revascularisations will be in patients with diabetes by 2010. The choice of optimal revascularisation strategy—coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)—remains controversi...

Comparing coronary artery bypass grafting with drug-eluting stenting in patients with diabetes mellitus and multivessel coronary artery disease: a meta-analysis.

OBJECTIVES Although drug-eluting stents (DESs) reduce the rate of target vessel revascularization compared with bare-metal stents, the results of DESs for patients with diabetes and multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) in the DES era are inconsistent. This meta-analysis was undertaken to assess the efficacy and safety of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) compared with drug-eluting ste...
