Diabetes is a metabolic disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia with disturbance of the metabolism resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. It is associated with the development of specific long-term organ damage due to microvascular disease and with a high risk for cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and peripheral artery disease. The ESC and EASD have developed these joint, evidence based guidelines for diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Abstract

Diabetes is a metabolic disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia with disturbance of the metabolism resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. It is associated with the development of specific long-term organ damage due to microvascular disease and with a high risk for cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and peripheral artery disease. The ESC and EASD have developed these joint, evidence based guidelines for diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
