Is elevated preoperative hemoglobin A1c level predictive of adverse events after coronary artery bypass surgery?
Elevated hemoglobin A1c level was strongly associated with adverse events after coronary artery bypass grafting. Preoperative hemoglobin A1c testing may allow for more accurate risk stratification in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.
Pretreatment tCa level has the highest correlation with MTX efficacy, which might be useful in predicting beneficial treatment results in psoriasis. Larger studies are required to confirm our findings.
