Limited data are available regarding the association between renal dysfunction and clinical outcomes in diabetic patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the drug-eluting stent (DES) era.Methods
Between March 2003 and December 2010, 2,181 diabetic patients were enrolled in a single-center registry.
