Type 2 diabetes increases the risk of coronary heart disease by a factor of two to four.¹ The relative increase in the rate of coronary heart disease among patients with diabetes in most studies is greater for women than for men. In the Framingham Heart Study¹ (but not in all studies), the absolute incidence of coronary heart disease is similar among both men and women with diabetes, leading to the frequently made assertion that diabetes may eliminate women's protection against coronary heart disease. The increase in the incidence of coronary events is greater for more severe clinical outcomes, such as . . . [Full Text of this Article]
