Research Progress of Diabetes Mellitus Complicated with Cardiovascular Disease

Diabetes is a chronic disease recognized by the World Health Organization, which is harmful to human life and health. With the improvement of people’s quality of life, people’s diet structure has changed greatly, and the primary “three high” prevalence rate has risen sharply. The main reason for the impaired life expectancy of a large number of diabetic patients is the threat of a series of cardiovascular complications. According to statistics, the risk of cardiovascular disease in diabetic patients are 2-4 times higher than that in non-diabetic patients. More than 80% of patients with type 2 diabetes die of cardiovascular disease every year, and 75% of them have ischemic heart disease [1]. All kinds of data show that diabetes mellitus complicated with cardiovascular diseases have become a worldwide public health problem. We must try our best to find a cure mechanism and give patients a healthy life. In order to effectively curb the threat of diabetes complicated with cardiovascular disease patients, we should strengthen the research in this field. Through the analysis of the risk factors of diabetic cardiovascular disease, we can let the majority of medical workers understand the superficial and potential risk factors, to formulate scientific and reasonable treatment plan, for further improving the quality of life of patients. In the following, the author first introduces the basic situation of diabetes and cardiovascular complications, then introduces the main risk factors of diabetic cardiovascular disease one by one, hoping that this study can help to improve the cure rate of diabetes complicated with cardiovascular disease.
