糖尿病是冠心病的等危症。循证医学研究证实糖尿病患者多半死于心血管并发症。急性冠状动脉综合征(ACS)是冠状动脉斑块破裂和继发血栓形成所致的冠心病急性事件。斑块内发现大量炎症细胞聚集是炎症参与斑块破裂的有力证据。触发炎症的启动因素较为复杂,包括机械性(血流动力学作 Diabetes is an equal risk of coronary heart disease. Evidence-based medical research confirms that most patients with diabetes die of cardiovascular complications. Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is an acute coronary event caused by ruptured coronary plaque and secondary thrombosis. A large number of inflammatory cell aggregates found within plaques are strong evidence that inflammation is involved in plaque rupture. The triggers that trigger inflammation are more complicated, including mechanical (hemodynamic)
