Abstract
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has risen in recent decades, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death in this population. Several studies have shown that, in clinical practice, identifying diabetic patients at high risk for CVD is essential, since these patients benefit from aggressive strategies to achieve a greater risk reduction. In recent years, new markers of CV risk have been added to the list of those already known. These new emerging markers, such as inflammatory, bone and hormonal markers, act as new indicators of subclinical atherosclerosis and CV mortality. Therefore, we reviewed the ongoing scientific research on these new biomarkers and discuss their clinical impact on the identification of T2DM patients at high CV risk.
Keywords: Inflammatory markers, anti-inflammatory markers, bone markers, cardiovascular disease, cardiovascular mortality, diabetes mellitus.

Advancing Diabetic Wound Healing: Mechanisms and Interventions
In recent years, diabetic wounds have become a global health concern with the increase in the incidence of diabetes. Diabetic wounds are a kind of chronic and refractory ulcer. It is generally due to the microcirculatory disturbances and the reduced levels of endogenous growth factors. Delayed cutaneous wound healing is ...read more
Oxidative and inflammatory responses in the development of secondary diabetic complications
Diabetes, along with its associated secondary complications, represents a significant global health challenge, contributing significantly to morbidity and mortality. Unhealthy lifestyle habits, reduced physical activity, environmental pollutants, and stress are pivotal factors in the onset of diabetes, particularly type-2 diabetes. Poorly managed hyperglycemia can lead to various complications, including neuropathy, ...read more
