Comparing cases with and without major adverse cardiac events (MACE). The mean amplitude of glycemic excursion in MACE cases was significantly higher than that in non-MACE cases (a), whereas the HbA1c levels did not significantly differ between the two groups (b). The maximum neointimal thickness (NIT) (c) and variability in NIT (d) were significantly greater in MACE cases, compared to those in non-MACE cases. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the percentage of uncovered struts (e)
