Summary
Cardiovascular events are the main cause of mortality in diabetic patients ,on the other hand,during an acute myocardial infarction(AMI),hyperglycemia increases mortality and is related to different pathophysiologic processes. More important evidence regarding the effect of glycemic control on AMI patients prognosis is contradictory,and the potential benefits of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors(DPP4-i) in this setting is unknown. The aim of this study is to assess the presence of pleiotropic effects of DPP4-i(sitagliptin or saxagliptin) and their relationship with glycemic control during in-hospital phase of AMI.
