Correlation Of Urine Albumin Creatinine Ratio And C-Reactive Protein Levels on Carotid Artery Intima-Media Thickness And Flow-Mediated Dilatation Response In Children and Adolescent with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus At Dr Saiful Anwar Hospital Malang
Abstract:Background: Early and accelerated atherosclerosis is a major cause of cardiovascular disease and often causes premature death in T1DM patients.

Imaging tests using ultrasound can detect subclinical atherosclerosis in this patient… Show more
