Mashup Score: 2Prevalence of diabetic cardiomyopathy in patients with type 2 diabetes in a large academic medical center - BMC Medicine - 11 month(s) ago
Background Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM) is characterized by asymptomatic stage B heart failure (SBHF) caused by diabetes-related metabolic alterations. DbCM is associated with an increased risk of progression to overt heart failure (HF). The prevalence of DbCM in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) is not well established.
