Persistent endothelial dysfunction persists in T2D with recent ACS despite care; cross-sectional data leaves open microparticle roles in residual risk.
Do patients with type 2 diabetes and recent acute coronary syndrome have normalized endothelial function and microparticle content compared to healthy controls?
Patients with type 2 diabetes and recent acute coronary syndrome continue to exhibit endothelial dysfunction and residual cardiovascular risk factors despite standard clinical care.
