The ORs of myocardial infarction (MI) or unstable angina (UA) versus patients without acute coronary syndrome (non-ACS)
| MI vs non-ACS | UA vs non-ACS | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OR | CI (95%) | OR | CI (95%) | |
| Glucose control* | 4.22 | 2.35 to 7.56 | 2.14 | 1.15 to 3.95 |
| Age group† | 1.06 | 1.04 to 1.08 | 1.04 | 1.03 to 1.06 |
| Sex (male) | 2.44 | 1.68 to 3.55 | 1.48 | 1.02 to 2.15 |
| Cholesterol | 1.17 | 1.03 to 1.32 | 1.15 | 1.00 to 1.32 |
| Smoking | 2.00 | 1.32 to 3.02 | 0.84 | 0.53 to 1.33 |
| Hypertension | 1.06 | 0.71 to 1.58 | 1.29 | 0.87 to 1.92 |
Associations were estimated by multivariate binary logistic regression and expressed as ORs with 95% CIs. MI and UA were the dependent variables and age by 10 year age groups, sex, serum cholesterol, smoking, hypertension and glucose control were entered as covariates into the same model. The number of patients included in final models was 680 (MI vs non-ACS) and 564 (UA vs non-ACS), respectively.
*Impaired glucose homoeostasis (glycated haemoglobin ≥5.5%+blood glucose ≥7.5 mM).
†Age groups: 30–39, 40–49, 50–59, 60–69, 70–74 years.
