mechanisms linking diabetes and increased cardiovascular risk
The mechanisms linking diabetes and increased cardiovascular risk refer to the various ways in which diabetes can lead to a higher likelihood of cardiovascular problems. These mechanisms often involve elevated blood sugar levels, chronic inflammation, abnormal blood lipid profiles, and endothelial dysfunction, all of which can damage blood vessels and increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular complications in individuals with diabetes.
