Impact of Diabetes Mellitus on Early Clinical Outcome and Stent Restenosis after Carotid Artery Stenting

Diabetes mellitus is closely related to both the severity of carotid disease and its outcome after revascularization. Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has emerged as a viable alternative to surgical endarterectomy but little is known about the impact of diabetes after CAS. A consecutive cohort of 1940...

Description
Summary:Diabetes mellitus is closely related to both the severity of carotid disease and its outcome after revascularization. Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has emerged as a viable alternative to surgical endarterectomy but little is known about the impact of diabetes after CAS. A consecutive cohort of 1940 patients undergoing CAS in two institutions were divided into two groups, diabetics and non-diabetics and major cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) were analyzed at 30 days post-CAS and at 1 year follow-up. There were 730 diabetic patients, with significantly higher BMI, hypertension, chronic dialysis and dyslipidemia frequency (p
