Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Obesity and diabetes are the most common causes of atherosclerotic vascular disease of the coronary, cerebral and peripheral arteries of the lower extremities, arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia and consequent heart failure in various types of cardiomyopathies with a preserved, mildly reduced or reduced ejection fraction of the left ventricle.
Obesity and diabetes per se represent a major global health problem. If we count the number of patients with related cardiovascular comorbidities, then we must be aware of the complexity of the disease and the number of patients we encounter in daily clinical practice. In order to be aware and act, we need additional knowledge and understanding of the connection between obesity and diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases.
