Aims: Coronary artery disease is a devastating disease precisely because an otherwise healthy person in the prime of life may die or become disabled without warning. The objectives were to study the clinical profile, risk factors prevalence, angiographic distribution and severity of coronary artery stenosis in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients admitted in Cardiology Department of Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka.Materials and Methods: A total of 800 patients of ACS were analyzed for various risk factors, angiographic patterns and severity of coronary artery disease at DMCH, Dhaka, Bangladesh.Results: Mean age of presentation was 51.27±8.80 years. Majority were male 628 (78.5%) and rest were females (21.5%). Most patients had ST elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) 509 (63.6%) followed by non-STEMI (NSTEMI) 207 (25.9%) and Unstable Angina (UA) 84 (10.5%). Risk factors: smoking was present in 388 (48.5%), hypertension in 289 (36.13%), diabetes in 235 (29.38%), dyslipidaemia in 169 (21.13%) and obesity in 356 (44.5%) patients. Singlevessel disease was present in 30.32% patients, Doublevessel disease was present in 23.23% patients and Triple vessel disease was present in 27.15% patients.Conclusion: STEMI was the most common presentation. ACS occurred earlier in comparison to Western population. Smoking was most prevalent risk factor. Diabetic patients had more multivessel disease.Bangladesh Heart Journal 2018; 33(1) : 10-15

The clinical presentation and angiographic findings of coronary artery disease (CAD) varies from diabetic and non-diabetic patients and varies with the age of presentation. Coronary artery disease in patients below the age of 45 is a special subset. The objective of this study is to compare the clinical and angiographic profile in patients with the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) with diabetes mellitus (DM) and without DM below the age of 45 years. Clinical Presentation of coronary artery disease in young patients with various risk factors differs, which plays an important role in management strategies. This was conducted through internet search on PubMed and ProQuest database from 2000 to until 2019. Key words used for searching are acute coronary syndrome, young diabetics, and clinical, angiographic profile. An important exclusion criterion is studies which included type one diabetic patients. Totally 35 papers were reviewed. Pattern of involvement of coronary arteries as assessed by the coronary angiographic study is found to be different in younger CAD patients. Atypical clinical presentation and distinct angiographic finding are common in diabetics below the age of 45. In most of the studies single vessel disease (SVD) is the most common angiographic finding in young CAD and non-diabetics. While the diabetics showed the more diffuse pattern of double vessel disease (DVD).

Background: Vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin has its receptor present in myriad of tissues and it modulates multiple cellular processes. Vitamin D deficiency is reported to be associated with coronary artery disease. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Aims and Objective: The primary outcome was to investigate if there is a correlation of 25-OH levels with the percentage of luminal stenosis, as measured with coronary angiogram. The secondary outcome was to determine the differences in angiographically proven luminal stenosis across categories of 25-OH vitamin D levels. Materials and Methods: Thirty patients with acute coronary syndrome with diabetes mellitus were included in this cross-sectional descriptive study. All patients were tested for fasting vitamin D levels, fasting blood sugar, HbA1C and serum creatinine. Detailed history of the patients was recorded. Data was analyzed by the statistical software SPSS version 19 and p value <0.05 was considered significant. Statistical tests like Chi- square, independent t test and log regression was used. Results: In this study 30 patients undergoing coronary angiography for acute coronary syndrome, Vitamin D levels showed severe deficiency in 6.7% (2) cases while mild deficiency was seen in 50% of the cases. Patients with single vessel disease on the coronary angiogram had lower mean HbA1C (9.18) levels in our study. Patients with triple vessel disease had poorly controlled mean HbA1C levels (10.42). Conclusion: In this study we did not find any significant difference between the serum Vitamin D deficiency levels with patients with angiographic severity of the coronary artery disease. Patients with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus had more severe angiographic proven coronary artery disease.
