Does Tight Glucose Control During the First 24 hours of Hospitalization Reduce Scintigraphic Infarct Size in STEMI Patients?

Abstract Background Hyperglycemia at the time of admission is related to increased mortality and poor prognosis in patients diagnosed with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Objective We aimed to investigate whether tight glucose control during the first 24 hours of STEMI decreases the...
