Key Result

The provided text is a tutorial on using screencast software for video lessons and contains no clinical data or meta-analysis results.

Key Points

• To assess if including admission blood glucose enhances risk prediction when using the GRACE score in ACS.
• Conducted a systematic search on PubMed, Embase, and ScienceDirect.
• Included cohort studies that compared the GRACE score with models incorporating admission glycemia.
• Hyperglycemia at admission was significantly associated with increased morbidity and mortality in ACS.
• Including admission glycemia improved the predictive accuracy of the GRACE score.
