Recent data revealed that patients with myocardial infarction (MI) have a high prevalence of previously unknown diabetes mellitus (DM) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). The added prognostic importance of this finding has not been prospectively explored. To investigate whether a newly detected abnormal glucose tolerance (IGT or DM) assessed early after an MI, is related to long-term prognosis.
