Objective To explore the impact of diabetes on coronary artery bypass grafting （CABG） in clinical representations, operative morbidity and mortality in this hospital. Methods Data was collected as a part of prospective registry of CABG through Sep. 2001 to Jul. 2003. Four hundreds and eighty-two patients were recruited. They were divided into diabetic group （n= 135） and non-diabetic group （n=347） depended on if the patients with diabetes or not. All patients were treated with insulin for hyperglycemia. Clinical representations, operative morbidity and mortality in this hospital between two groups were compared by using chi-square tests, t tests and logistic regression. Results Re-exploration in diabetic group was higher than that in non-diabetic group （4.4% vs. 0. 9%; x2= 6. 769, P = 0. 009）. There was no significant difference in the operative morbidity and mortality in hospital between two groups. Multi-variance logistic regression showed that the lower left ventricular ejection fraction （〈 0. 40,OR 15.96）, re-exploration （OR 32. 77） and re-intubation （OR 124.17） were the predictors of perioperative mortality in hospital. Conclusions There are no significant difference in the operative mortality and complication between patients with diabetes and patients with non-diabetes. Strict glucose control in perioperative period would reduce hospital mortality and morbidity.
