title: Glycated hemoglobin in ST-elevation myocardial infarction without previously known diabetes: its short and long term prognostic role.
abstract: In 518 consecutive STEMI non-diabetic patients, glycated hemoglobin>6.5% was not associated with increased short and long term mortality, but was associated with higher admission glucose values, worse in-hospital glycemic control and a higher incidence of acute insulin resistance (HOMA index).
