Type 2 Diabetes: Silent Damage to Blood Vessels Revealed
New research indicates that long-term type 2 diabetes can alter red blood cells, impairing blood vessel function and elevating cardiovascular risk. Experts at the Karolinska Institutet identified a specific molecule that could potentially serve as an early biomarker for assessing heart disease risk in diabetic patients, emphasizing the importance of proactive monitoring and management. These findings underscore the need for ongoing research into the mechanisms linking diabetes duration and cardiovascular health to improve patient outcomes.
