Description

INTRODUCTION
Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) have been shown to be associated with Type II diabetes mellitus (DM) as it is a proinflammatory process. Some DM inflammatory markers may be present in prediabetes (pDM). Yet, the clinical relationship between pDM and MACE has not been well studied. Thus, this study’s primary goal is to see if pDM increases one’s risk for MACE.
