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.
Impaired MFR was more frequent in patients with diabetes and was strongly associated with the degree of albuminuria suggesting that CMD and albuminuria might share common mechanisms.
Potier et al. (Thu,) studied this question.
