Abstract
Myocardial infarction in diabetics is often accompanied by poor diabetic control. An assessment of a low-dose insulin infusion regimen in 26 diabetic patients after myocardial infarction found this system to be simple, effective, and safe.This publication has 15 references indexed in Scilit:
