Letter for Killip classification and glucose level in patients with acute myocardial infarction

Because diabetes with medical control confers high risks in the development of higher Killip class in acute myocardial infarction not only with hyperglycemia but also with hypoglycemia, it is reasonable that the positive trend between Killip class and glucose level results from the difference among...
