Is Diabetes Mellitus associated with an increased risk of cardiac conduction defects?
This review highlights an underrecognized association between diabetes mellitus and an increased prevalence of specific cardiac conduction abnormalities like RBBB and AV-block.
Mohammad‐Reza Movahed (2006) conducted a review in Diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus was evaluated on Cardiac conduction abnormalities. Diabetes mellitus is associated with an increased prevalence of cardiac conduction abnormalities, such as right bundle branch block, bifascicular block, and high-degree AV block, but not LBBB.
