Effect of metabolic syndrome on coronary artery atherosclerotic plaque in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients
MS is independently associated with adverse coronary artery plaque characteristics in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients, including increased mixed, noncalcified, nonobstructive, spotty calcification plaques, as well as extensive coronary artery disease (CAD). These findings highlight the need for early detection and management of MS to reduce cardiovascular risks in T2DM patients.
