Impact of diabetes mellitus on clinical outcomes of patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
Background
The presence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) after percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) is associated with poor outcomes, but the specific contribution of diabetes mellitus (DM) is not established.
Methods
A cohort of 198 patients with ESRD on hemodialysis, who underwent PCI with stents, was followed clinically for 1 year, and the clinical events rates were recorded. We retrospectively compared patients with DM to those without DM.
