This study examines the link between glycemic control and non-culprit lesion (NCL) characteristics in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. Poor glycemic control (HbA1c ≥8%) correlates with increased NCL vulnerability, including thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) and plaque rupture. Higher HbA1c levels are associated with worsened plaque features and greater vulnerability, highlighting the importance of glycemic management in AMI patients.
