Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is associated with a high incidence of cardiovascular complications and has been identified as an independent risk factor for the development of coronary artery disease (1,2). Once the diagnosis of coronary disease is established, patients with diabetes have higher complication rates and higher mortality than their nondiabetic counterparts (3,4). Overall, diabetes increases the relative risk of cardiovascular death threefold in males regardless of the presence of other traditional risk factors, with an even more pronounced effect in diabetic females (5,6).
