Effect of Glycemic Control During Follow-up on Late Target Lesion Revascularization After Implantation of New-Generation Drug-Eluting Stents in Patients With Diabetes　- A Single-Center Observational Study.

ABSTRACT: Background: Few studies have investigated the importance of glycemic control in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) for reducing the incidence of late target lesion revascularization (TLR) after implantation of new-generation drug-eluting stents (DES). Methods and Results: We retrospectively identified 1,568 patients who underwent new-generation DES implantation. Patients were divided into 3 groups based on diabetic status and glycemic control 1 year after the procedure: those without DM (non-DM group; n=1,058) and those with DM at follow-up with either good (HbA1c <7%; n=328) or poor (HbA1c ≥7%; n=182) control. The cumulative 5-year incidence of clinically driven late TLR after the index procedure was significantly higher in DM with poor control at follow-up t
