This study assessed the association of DM with significant carotid artery stenosis (CAS) among the coronary artery disease (CAD) population undergoing isolated elective coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.Methods: A prospective cross-sectional study evaluated 100 Bangladeshi CAD patients who underwent isolated elective CABG from January 2017 to September 2019. Initially, a univariate analysis curtails the risk patterns, followed by a Pearson correlation analysis of significant CAS and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c).Results: Although the majority of patients were male, females were higher in the diabetic than non-diabetic group (38.1% vs 15.5%; p=0.01). Overall, ~38% of diabetic patients had significantly higher ≥ 50% CAS. Further, 28.6% and 9.5% of the diabetic sample had 50– 70% and > 70% CAS, respectively, which is significantly (p =0.02) higher than the non-diabetic sample (8.6% and 1.7%, respectively). Additionally, diabetes was significantly more associated with both unilateral (31.0% vs 22.4%) and bilateral (45.2% vs 22.4%) CAS than the non-diabetic population (p=0.006). The Pearson correlation coefficient shows a significant positive association between higher glycated haemoglobin levels and > 50% CAS (correlation coefficient 0.270; p = 0.007).Conclusion: We found higher HbA1c had a significant positive correlation with > 50% CAS in diabetic patients undergoing elective CABG, recommending preoperative carotid screening, especially elderly individuals.Keywords: carotid artery stenosis, coronary artery disease, diabetes mellitus, duplex scan
