Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with a spectrum of metabolic dysfunctions that significantly elevate the risk of cardiovascular disorders. Understanding the intricate relationship between metabolic control and cardiovascular autonomic function in individuals with T2DM is crucial for effective management and the prevention of associated complications. This insight is foundational in developing targeted strategies that can mitigate the heightened cardiovascular risks inherent to this condition, thereby enhancing patient outcomes and quality of life.

Background Cardiovascular autonomic dysregulation is a known complication of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), characterized by dysregulation in heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP). These disruptions in cardiovascular autonomic control can significantly influence the morbidity and mortality associated with the disease. Objectives This study aims to investigate how T2DM affects cardiovascular autonomic functions by comparing responses in HR, BP, and specific autonomic function tests between a control group without diabetes and a study group with diabetes.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the increasing risk of overweight and obesity among young individuals, particularly medical students, and its link to serious chronic diseases like cardiovascular issues and diabetes.
  • Conducted at Smt. B.K. Shah Medical Institute, the research assessed the Body Mass Index (BMI) of 138 first-year medical students and correlated it with various cardiovascular risk factors, such as blood pressure and family health history.
  • Findings revealed that over 35% of students were overweight, with a significant association between higher BMI and elevated blood pressure, as well as a connection to family history of cardiovascular diseases.
