Diabetes jenis 2 (T2DM) sekarang merangkumi 90% dari semua jenis diabetes dan 80% kematian di dalam kumpulan ini adalah berkaitan dengan penyakit kardiovaskular. Risiko kematian akibat penyakit kardiovaskular di kalangan pengidap Gangguan Tolerans Glukosa (IGT) adalah lebih tinggi berbanding mereka yang paras glukosa normal. Perubahan patologi pada salurdarah bermula bebarapa tahun sebelum diabetes jenis 2 dikesan. Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) now accounts for 90% of all diabetes and 80% of deaths in this group are cardiovascular related. The risk of cardiovascular mortality is also substantially higher in individuals with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) than in those with normal glucose levels and the pathological changes in vascular function begin many years before the diagnosis of overt T2DM.
