Associations between overnight urinary albumin excretion rate and prevalent coronary heart disease and its major risk factors were examined in a cross-sectional study of 141 Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic patients. Mean albumin excretion rate was higher in men (geometric mean 13.5 microgram
Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients with clinical nephropathy have a more than ten-fold increase in mortality of cardiovascular diseases compared with diabetic patients without nephropathy. The risk factors for cardiovascular disease, plasma concentrations of lipoproteins and fibrinogen, we
## Enhanced platelet functions have been reported in patients with diabetes mellitus. Our recent study demonstrated that phosphoinositide turnover is increased in platelets from diabetic patients. In the present study, we evaluated the abnormality in platelet intracellular calcium mobilization in
The mechanisms underlying insulin resistance in Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus are not fully understood. An enhanced lipid/non-esterified fatty acid oxidation could provide an explanation. To test this hypothesis we examined the relationship between glucose and lipid metabolism in
