A review of the scientific literature was conducted to investigate reducing mortality from acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This included a review of literature comparing cardiovascular disease (CVD) treatment methods for AMI patients who have T2DM and those with normal carbohydrate metabolism. These treatments increase the life expectancy and greatly improve the quality of life of patients with acute myocardial infarction in both groups of patients. However, the risk of cardiovascular mortality in patients with T2DM compared with people with normal carbohydrate metabolism remains unchanged. The rapidly growing population of patients with T2DM will soon change our attitude towards the possibility of improving the prognosis and treatment of those with CVD.
