The Role of the plasma glycosylated hemoglobin A1c/Apolipoprotein A-l ratio in predicting cardiovascular outcomes in acute coronary syndrome

Glucose and lipid metabolism are major prognostic indicators of coronary heart disease. The ratio of plasma glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) to apolipoprotein A-l (ApoA-l) is an indirect measure of insulin resistance. The study aimed to evaluate whether the HbA1c/ApoA-1 ratio can predict the prognosis in patients with the acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
