Heart Disease And Diabetes

Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in people with diabetes. Several factors have reawakened an interest in the assessment and treatment of heart disease. Heart Disease and Diabetes looks at developing topics from a clinical and multi-disciplinary perspective. Areas of controversy (treatment of diabetes post-MI with insulin, use of heart transplantation, bias against treatment in people with diabetes) are discussed in detail. This book will be of interest to both diabetes specialists and cardiologists, as well as associated specialists, particularly clinical biochemists, clinical pharmacologists and epidemiologists.
