Prediabetes Linked to Higher MACE Risk

Written by Communications and Marketing

|

Patients with prediabetes have a heightened risk of major adverse cardiovascular events, findings from a large, retrospective study suggest. Through up to 14 years of follow-up, the MACE rate was 18% in patients who remained prediabetic and 11% in those who maintained normal blood glucose levels (P < 0.0001). The highest rate was seen in patients with diabetes (23%), which is a well-known risk factor for adverse cardiovascular outcomes.
