Cardiovascular disease; Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus |
Core Tip |
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has risen in recent decades, and cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in this population. Several clinical trials have demonstrated the benefit of tight control of risk factors on the incidence and mortality of cardiovascular disease. The current diagnostic procedures for subclinical cardiovascular disease in T2DM patients have not been shown to improve prognosis or mortality, probably because they do not categorize cardiovascular risk. Improvements in the reliability of diagnostic tests, with fewer side effects and better cost efficiency, may better help to stratify cardiovascular risk in this group of patients, and further evaluation on this topic should be considered. |
