Summary

Silent myocardial ischemia is usual in type 2 diabetic patients and associated with coronary stenoses and endothelial dysfunction or both. We therefore hypothesized that peripheral endothelial dysfunction is a marker of silent myocardial ischemia. The aim of the study is, in 120 asymptomatic type 2 diabetic patients, to evaluate the relations between coronary status, assessed with myocardial scintigraphy and subsequent coronary angiography in case of abnormality, and peripheral endothelial function, according to post-occlusive hyperaemia endothelium-dependent brachial artery dilation.
