Why the study?
Is cardiac microvascular dysfunction measured with 82Rubidium-PET associated with albuminuria in patients with diabetes mellitus?
Is cardiac microvascular dysfunction measured with 82Rubidium-PET associated with albuminuria in patients with diabetes mellitus?
Cardiac microvascular dysfunction is strongly associated with the degree of albuminuria in patients with diabetes, suggesting shared pathophysiological mechanisms.
