Diagnosis and Management of Cardiometabolic Diseases Associated with Diabetes

Dear Colleagues,

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the primary causes of mortality among patients with chronic metabolic disorders, including dysregulation of the lipid metabolism, obesity, prediabetes, diabetes, etc., and it therefore remains a vital research field worldwide. In particular, people with diabetes are at a high risk of developing a spectrum of cardiometabolic comorbid conditions. Thus, the early diagnosis, management and therapeutic treatment of these concerns could significantly reduce the risk of CVD in these patients.

The underlying pathophysiological mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis and acceleration of the atherosclerotic process resulting in an increased CVD risk in these patients are poorly understood. In the era of omics, novel approaches could enhance our understanding of the complex relationships among genes, proteins and cardiometabolic diseases, providing additional tools with which to undertake preventive and therapeutic strategies and thus provide personalized medicine.

This Special Issue aims to review recent advances in the diagnosis and management of cardiometabolic diseases associated with diabetes. We welcome submissions (original articles, reviews, or short communications) from clinical, translational, and basic research.
