Abstrakt		Background. In contrast to ST elevation myocardial infarcts in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) prognosis in women and men are equal and unstable angina even in favour of women compared to men. Diabetes is common among patients admitted with NSTEMI, in particular in women as demonstrated by several clinical trials. Diabetic in comparison with non diabetic patients with NSTEMI in general have more clinical complications, increased mortality, longer in-hospital stay and increased management costs. However, the prognosis in diabetic women in comparison to their diabetic counterparts, diabetic and nondiabetic men with NSTEMI is less well known. Our aim was to evaluate and compare 30-day mortality between diabetic and nondiabetic men with NSTEMI.
