“…Morgan et al showed that diabetic patients have a higher incidence of multivessel disease, left main stemdisease and complex type C lesion. 4 In this study, the mean levels of lipid variables did allow the discrimination between the presence and absence of multivessel coronary artery disease. In addition, the analysis of severity of coronary artery disease using the score system 8 showed that the variable HDL, TC/HDL and LDL/HDL were also significantly correlated with the atherosclerotic lesion score.…”

“…It is scavenged bytissue macrophages creating the foam cell, a constituent ofthe atherosclerotic plaque.So, lipid status is more important in CAD of diabetic patient. 4 This cross-sectional analytical study revealed that dyslipidemia in diabetic patients were associated with higher risk of development of severe coronary atherosclerosis in terms of number of vessel involvement, type of lesions, percentage of obstruction and lesion score.…”

“…3 Some researchers are showing a diabetic pattern of CAD such as a significant number of stenosis, more spreading stenosis, and a multivessel. 4,5 Factors on DM patient that can increase ACS risk are atherosclerosis acceleration, prothrombic state, and autonomic disfunction. 6 While 20-30% of European patients with NSTE-ACS have known diabetes mellitus, a similar proportion may have undiagnosed diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance.…”
