Connections Between Diabetes Mellitus, Other Metabolic and Endocrine Dysfunctions and Cardiovascular Pathologies—Second Edition

Dear Colleagues,

Although the association between diabetes mellitus and other metabolic dysfunctions, such as metabolic syndrome and obesity, and cardiovascular pathologies are well known and widely studied, physicians and researchers should not underestimate the enormous impact of other endocrine dysfunctions, commencing with thyroid disorders and other endocrine diseases, on the cardiovascular risk profile of a patient. New developments in genetics, pathophysiology, medical equipment, bioengineering, pharmacology and statistics open new horizons for the diagnosis and management of patients with various metabolic and endocrine dysfunctions, for example, allowing for precocious detection even in a subclinical status of cardiovascular alterations, thus preventing their evolution to a symptomatic disease with multiple consequences for the patient.

The development of new diagnostic/therapeutic methods and protocols is needed to facilitate the precocious diagnosis and assessment of the risk profile, pre-existing cardiovascular pathologies and short- and long-term outcomes in diabetic patients as well as in those with other metabolic and endocrine dysfunctions.

This Special Issue focuses on original articles and reviews referring to groundbreaking research regarding the association between diabetes mellitus and/or other endocrine and metabolic dysfunctions and cardiovascular pathologies.
