Aortic valve calcification across stages of dysglycemia in middle-aged individuals from the general population
In this large, contemporary, and randomly selected population of middle-aged individuals, prediabetes, newly detected diabetes and known diabetes were all associated with CT-detected AVC. Further studies are warranted to investigate if managing dysglycemia, even in its early stages, may help slow down AVC progression.
