The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE) (MACE; cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularization, and target vessel revascularization) at 24 months.Results: In diabetes group, the incidence of MACE at 24 months (19.1%) was higher than in the non-diabetes group (12.5%) and pre-diabetes group (10.4%) (p<0.05). Cox regression revealed that diabetes (HR [hazard ratios] 2.049, 95% CI 1.056-4.284), bifurcation lesion (HR 5.255, 95% CI 2.765-9.986), Syntax score (HR 1.098, 95% CI 1.040-1.559) and hemoglobin A1c (HR 1.084, 95% CI 1.160-1.741) were independent predictors of MACE in patients performing PCI with DCB (all p<0.05). However, pre-diabetes did not increase the risk of MACE (HR 1.560, 95% CI 0.542-4.490, p>0.05).Conclusion: Diabetes increased the risk of MACE in patients performing PCI with DCB. ER -
