Abstract: This study determine whether serum gamma- glutamyltransferase（GGT）levels can independently predict the progression of coronary artery calcification（CAC）in adults with type 2 diabetes. A total of 278 type 2 diabetic patients asymptomatic of cardiovascular disease were evaluated… read more here.
