Why the study?
What is the influence of clinical and RBC hemorheological factors on myocardial perfusion in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus compared to those without DM?
What is the influence of clinical and RBC hemorheological factors on myocardial perfusion in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus compared to those without DM?
In patients with stable angina or ACS, impaired myocardial perfusion in non-obstructed territories is associated with diabetes, diastolic dysfunction, inflammation, and increased RBC aggregation.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Impaired perfusion in DM may involve inflammation and RBC aggregation; leaves open causal roles and need for prospective intervention trials.
Cho et al. (2014) studied this question.
