Long-term risk of cardiovascular disease among type 2 diabetic patients with asymptomatic intracranial atherosclerosis: a prospective cohort study.
<h4>Objective</h4>To investigate whether asymptomatic middle cerebral artery (MCA) stenosis is associated with risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Chinese with type 2 diabetes.<h4>Methods</h4>In this prospective cohort study, 2,144 Hong Kong Chinese with type 2 diabetes a...
