Abstract
This study aimed to assess the relationship between HbA1c level and coronary artery disease (CAD) among non-diabetic patients. Methods: One hundred patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who referred to coronary angiography were included. According to American Diabetes Association (ADA7) patients were classified into high risk group (HbA1c 5.7 – 6.4%) or low risk group (HbA1c 0.05). Conclusion: Among non-diabetic patients, higher HbA1c is significantly correlated with the severity of CAD. HbA1c level has a prognostic value to predict the severity of CAD among non-diabetic patients
