“…were married. The results of the study further supported by (8) study which evaluated the hospital outcomes of diabetic and non-diabetic patients aged over 70 years after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and mention that (9 %) of the diabetic patients post CABG were illiterate, (42%) with high cholesterol level and most of them (22.7%) were overweight with Mean body mass index (SD) = 26.3±3.3.…”
