Fat Around Heart Arteries as a Measure of Inflammation in Patients With Glycometabolic Disease

In this study, the objective is to investigate inflammation in the arteries of the heart. A heart CT scan (CCTA) will be used to measure inflammation by assessing the fat tissue surrounding the arteries of the heart. Participants with and without type 2 diabetes who have no heart symptoms have been examined and had a CCTA scan performed. This study aims to answer the following questions: • Is inflammation in the surrounding fat tissue of the heart arteries associated with the following glycometabolic conditions: I) Obesity ii) Prediabetes iii) Type 2 diabetes
