The current study was undertaken to examine metabolic and body composition correlates of fatty liver in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Eighty-three men and women with type 2 DM [mean body mass index (BMI): 34 +/- 0.5 kg/m2] and without clinical or laboratory evidence of liver dysfunction had body composition assessments of fat mass (FM), visceral adipose tissue (VAT), liver and spleen computed ...

BACKGROUND The mid-term prognostic significance of ECG-gated single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) remains unclear in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). In the present study rates of future cardiac events (nonfatal acute myocardial infarction (AMI), cardiac death (CD) and severe heart failure (HF) requiring hospitalization) were compared in patients with and with...

Hypofibrinolysis is a common finding in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and obesity and a risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease. Recently, a new potent inhibitor of fibrinolysis, the thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI) has been isolated and characterized from human plasma. The present study was undertaken to assess the activity and circulating level of TA...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and oncological outcomes in early stage cervical cancer patients who underwent radical surgical resection. METHODS Patients with early stage cervical cancer diagnosed between 2001 and 2014 were retrospectively enrolled. We assessed the outcomes of 402 non-DM and 42 DM patients with cervical cancer. We tested the prog...

Arterial hypertension (HTN) is a major risk factor both for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and for microvascular complications of diabetes mellitus (DM). While the evolution of type 2 DM doubles the cardiovascular risk in men and triples it in women, HTN increases the cardiovascular risk by four times in DM patients. ASCVD represent the main cause of morbidity and mortality for ...

background: air pollution has been a serious public health threat worldwide. it has been linked to pulmonary and cardiovascular diseases but is also believed to contribute to air-pollution-mediated cardiometabolic disease such as diabetes. we investigated the relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus (dm2) and air pollution in densely developed urban settings in south korea, using national ...
