The aim of the study was to investigate elastic arteries viscoelastic properties state in type 2 diabetes mellitus and the main factors modifying its disturbance.
38 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and 13 practically healthy persons were examined.
Significant elevation of PWV (56,45%) and K (68,94%), indicating elastic arteries stiffness increasing, were fixed in type 2 DM patients.
