Diabetic retinopathy: a tool for cardiovascular risk stratification

Randomized, cross-sectional, and prospective studies have demonstrated that microvascular complications in patients with diabetes are not only the cause of blindness, renal failure and non-traumatic amputations, but also powerful predictors of cardiovascular complications. The pathophysiology of dia...
