Abstract |
The World Health Organization and the American Diabetes Association recommend a level of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥ 6.5% as diagnostic for diabetes. However, concordance between fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and HbA1c levels in acutely unwell patients is unknown. Furthermore, the prognostic value of HbA1c for left ventricular (LV) dysfunction is unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the concordance between HbA1c levels and FPG in consecutive patients with acute ST-elevation MI (STEMI) and compare their prognostic value in predicting LV dysfunction and elevated filling pressures on echocardiography. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 June 2015.
All research outputs
#15,168,964
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from Canadian Journal of Cardiology
#1,586
of 2,583 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#137,257
of 274,413 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Canadian Journal of Cardiology
#30
of 54 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,583 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 14.8. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 274,413 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 54 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
