Summary

Arterial stiffness is associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Moreover, the integrity of endothelial glycocalyx plays a vital role in vascular permeability, inflammation and elasticity. The purpose of this study is to investigate changes in arterial stiffness and endothelial glycocalyx thickness in patients with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus type 1 or type 2 after glycemic control by optimal medication.
