| Abstract |
Measurement of glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) to diagnose diabetes mellitus (DM-2) is recommended by several expert groups. DM-2 occurs very frequently among patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Therefore, we aimed to investigate the diagnostic strengths of HbA1c and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in detecting latent glucometabolic disturbances among patients with CAD. |
