Table 5 Changes in IVUS parameters in patients stratified according to HbA1c at baseline

From: High HbA1c levels correlate with reduced plaque regression during statin treatment in patients with stable coronary artery disease: Results of the coronary atherosclerosis study measuring effects of rosuvastatin using intravascular ultrasound in Japanese subjects (COSMOS)

 

HbA1c <6.5% (n = 86)

HbA1c ≥6.5% (n = 40)
