| Core Tip |
Microvascular complications currently predominate the definition and treatment evaluation of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We can be severely mistaken by neglecting macrovascular complications which are generally more severe, if they also occur more commonly than microvascular complications. This systematic review and meta-analysis shows that major cardiovascular events are twice as common as severe microvascular complications in T2DM patients, suggesting that macrovascular complications should be emphasized over microvascular complications in developing the diagnostic criteria of T2DM and in evaluating the efficacy of anti-diabetic drugs. |
