Acute Coronary Syndrome
Conditions
Brief summary
To evaluate the glycemic variations during acute coronary syndrome in non-diabetic patients (euglycemic, or with impaired fasting glucose, or with impaired glucose tolerance)
Detailed description
All nondiabetic patients with dysglycemia (fasting plasma glucose between 100 and 125 mg/dl) will be monitored with a device (Continuous Glucose Monitoring System) and all these patients will be undergone an oral glucose tolerance test after the discharge from this Unit.
Interventions
This device can register blood glucose values and excursions. This device consists of a needle (applied in subcutaneous way) and of a recording device.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Glycemic status | 15 days | Patients with dysglycemia (not diabetic patients) will be undergone a monitoring of blood glucose with a device till the discharge of the patient. Then, an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) will be done to categorize the patient as having impaired fasting glucose (IFG) or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), or diabetes mellitus. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Endothelial damage | 15 days | sICAM-1 |
| Inflammation parameters | 15 days | sRAGE |
| Lipid profile | 15 days | Total cholesterol |
| Heart damage | 15 days | CPK |
