Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 06/17/09
Stratmann B et al. - The principal clinical manifestations of atherothrombosis are sudden cardiac death, myocardial infarction, ischaemic stroke, and peripheral arterial ischaemia comprising both intermittent claudication and critical limb ischaemia. Atherosclerosis is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the industrialized world, and diabetes mellitus magnifies the risk of cardiovascular events. In addition to the well-known microvascular complications of diabetes mellitus – such as nephropathy, retinopathy and neuropathy – the risk of macrovascular complications affecting the large conduit arteries markedly increases in patients with diabetes mellitus.
