Early Identification of Heart Failure in a High-Risk Diabetic Cohort

Sponsor: Mackay Memorial Hospital

Summary

Type 2 diabetes is an important co-morbid condition strongly associated with the risk of developing heart failure (HF). Risk scores such as the WATCH-DM score that predict the occurrence of HF among diabetes patients are largely based on data collected from white ethnicities. Here, the investigators sought to investigate surrogate markers for predicting HF among type 2 diabetes patients of Asian ethnicities.
