Cardiologists vs Endocrinologists in Glycemic Control for Coronary Artery Disease Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: A Cross-Sectional Study
This study underscored the distinct yet complementary roles of cardiologists and endocrinologists in managing glycemic control among patients with CAD and T2DM, noting endocrinologists' more active involvement in treatment intensification. Future integrated care models should harness the unique expertise of both specialties to optimize patient outcomes, better address glycemic control needs, and enhance overall cardiovascular risk management in this high-risk patient population.
