Study: Diabetics are more likely to develop a heart attack or stroke

A recent study has shown that people with type 2 diabetes are more likely to develop a heart attack, stroke or any serious heart and blood vessels, up to 4 as not injured. Doctors can identify people with a minor risk of developing a cardiovascular disease compared to more risk, according to the study, and the study included cases that were recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. The researchers diagnosed the injury of volunteers in the new study, which counted 752, recently with type 2 diabetes, and none of them had a history of heart disease. During the follow -up period, which lasted nearly 7 years, 102 of their serious complications in the heart and blood vessels had. By analyzing the blood samples taken at regular intervals of the participants in the study, researchers were able to detect chemical changes in DNA over time. Charlotte Ling, from the University of Lund in Sweden, and the supervisor of the study, said in a statement that these changes called ‘DNA’ will be active of any genes and which will be broken in cells, and it can contribute if it does not work well to cardiovascular disease. ” The researchers found more than 400 areas for the ideal of DNA indicating a change, and could use 87 sites to develop an indicator that evaluates the degree of risk or risk of serious complications in the heart and blood vessels. The researchers said in the study, published by the magazine “Cell Reports Midisin”, that the level of accuracy in the negative prediction of the index, or in other words, is the ability to determine patients with a minor risk for cardiovascular disease is 96%. But the accuracy of this indicator was no more than 32% in identifying patients at great risk, and this may be due to the study not following them for a sufficient period. The researchers said that the investigation they conducted was “one of the most reliable prediction instruments, apparently to distinguish between type 2 diabetic with a slight risk of heart disease, and those who run the risk of possible significant risk, which enables personal treatment, the cost of health care rationalizing and reducing the fear of patients and side effects.” Charlotte Ling added that healthcare providers are currently looking at changing factors, such as age, gender, blood pressure, smoking, harmful cholesterol, long -term blood sugar and kidney function, to estimate the risk of heart disease in the future, “but it is a somewhat inaccurate tool.” “If you add a DNA, you will have a much better indication of the risks in the future.”
