Ko et al. (2006) conducted a cross-sectional in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (n=1,798). Cardiovascular autonomic function testing vs. Normal autonomic function was evaluated on Prevalence of abnormal Cardiovascular Autonomic Neuropathy (CAN). Cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy was present in 54.7% of Korean type 2 diabetic patients and was independently associated with older age, longer diabetes duration, higher HbA1c, and hypertension.
