INS and myocardial infarction: We start by describing the categorical variables: in our cohort, we had 17 men and 13 women (n.s.); 16 were smokers (n.s.); half of them had a history of myocardial infarction (n.s.); 25 had arterial hypertension (p < 0.01); 28 of them were on oral antidiabetic drugs (p < 0.01); and 20 received insulin (p = 0.1).
