KDR and angina unstable: However, the occurrence of unstable angina, the composite endpoints MACE and re-hospitalization for unstable angina or heart failure were significantly higher in diabetics, with the following odds ratios 6.89 (95% CI, 1.35-35.19), 4.23 (95% CI 1.43-12.53) and 4.82 (95% CI 1.52-15.30), respectively.Regarding baseline circulating EPCs levels, patients with unstable angina, unplanned PCI or MACE during follow-up presented significantly lower levels of CD45dimCD34+KDR+ and CD45dimCD133+KDR+ EPCs.
