https://doi.org/10.14341/probl11491

Abstract

One of the main complications leading to high disability and mortality in patients with diabetes mellitus is atherosclerotic vascular disease (diabetic macroangiopathy). At the same time, the frequency of atherosclerosis among patients with diabetes mellitus is significantly affected by the so-called risk factors for atherosclerosis. In particular, the incidence of atherosclerosis among the general population and among diabetics increases with increased levels of cholesterol (cholesterol) in the blood, blood pressure, smoking and obesity. However, in patients with diabetes mellitus, mortality, for example, from coronary heart disease increases by 3 times against any of the known risk factors. But even without risk factors, the frequency of atherosclerotic vascular damage in patients with diabetes is much higher than in non-diabetic patients, i.e. diabetes in itself is a risk factor for atherosclerosis.
