Author(s): Ahmed Hosny El-Adawy*, Hoda Mahmoud Abdelaziz , Eslam Eid and Tarek Gouda
Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most prevalent metabolic disease worldwide and is the most potent risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). Consequently, finding a clue to diagnose the presence of CAD as early as possible in diabetic patients is very important. Micro albuminuria is a strong and independent indicator of increased cardiovascular risk among individuals with and without diabetes.
The aim of this study was to find any correlation between the degree of albuminuria and the severity of CAD in patients with type 2 DM.
Methods: This was a cross sectional study that included 86 patients with type 2 DM whom underwent elective coronary angiography for suspected coronary artery disease in Mansoura Specialized Medical Ho... view more»
