Zusammenfassung

Background/Aims: HbA1c is a well known predictor for diabetic complications. Postprandial blood glucose levels were also discussed to be responsible for the occurrence of cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). In the present study weinvestigated if high postprandial blood glucose levels are associated with the prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CHD, PAD, previous MI, previous stroke) independent of HbA1c levels. Methods: We included 431 patients with T2DM (mean age 61 yrs., 196 female) in a cross-sectional study. Blood glucose levels (2 hours postprandial) and HbA1c were measured by st…
