Abstract

Background: Insulin resistance, compensatory hyperinsulinemia, and the development of hyperglycemia promote diabetic cardiomyopathy, a subtype of heart disease that develops apart from other cardiac risk factors like hypertension and coronary artery disease (CAD). The prevalence of heart failure symptoms was 19% in people with type 2 diabetes, and the chance of developing heart failure was two to eight times higher in those people. We intended to outline an overview of the Progression of Diabetic cardiomyopathy among Type 2 Diabetic Patients.

Conclusion: Diabetes is one of the rare but rapidly increasing causes of cardiomyopathy globally. The condition is a common consequence of diabetes that is responsible for a great deal of death and disability. We provide a synopsis of the several potential pathogenic mechanisms that are now being studied that could lead to diabetes-related cardiomyopathy, including fibrosis, cell signaling disturbance, and left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy. Heart failure develops from these alterations.
