Plain English summary of protocol

Background and study aims?
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. There are four times as many cardiovascular deaths in diabetic patients compared to non-diabetic patients. In particular, after acute coronary syndrome or heart attacks, patients with DM have been reported to have worse survival rates compared to those without DM. Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) is an important predictor of long-term outcomes after acute coronary events. The management of many risk factors including blood pressure and cholesterol has been shown to reduce these complications in patients with type 2 DM. Therefore, lifestyle changes and management of hyperglycemia is recommended in current clinical guidelines. To reach this goal, combining therapy with oral anti-diabetic drugs (OADs) is very common.
The study aimed at investigating the relationship between anti-diabetic drugs and the outcomes of acute coronary syndrome.

Who can participate?
Diabetic patients aged 20 years or older, who are hospitalized due to acute coronary syndrome

What does the study involve?
The study will collect clinical information related to acute coronary syndrome by reviewing medical records or interviewing with the patients at regular intervals.

What are the possible benefits and risks of participating? The participation of patients will benefit in the exploration of knowledge about the impact of OADs on the outcomes of acute coronary syndrome. There are no known risks to participants taking part in this study.

Taiwan Society of Cardiology, Taipei (Taiwan)

When is the study starting and how long is it expected to run for?
July 2013 to January 2017
