The role of central haemodynamics in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus-related brain disease

2型糖尿病与大血管僵硬有关，这可能会将有害的压力传递到大脑的小血管。这反过来可能会对脑细胞造成损害，并增加患痴呆症的风险。这项研究将使用最先进的技术来检验这一理论。如果是真的，这可能会带来机会，通过使用治疗方法来减少动脉硬化，从而降低糖尿病患者的脑部疾病风险。

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is associated with stiffening of major blood vessels which may allow the transmission of harmful pressure to the small vessels of the brain. This may in turn be responsible for damage to brain cells and a greater risk of dementia. This study will use state-of-the art techniques to test this theory. If true, it may open opportunities to reduce the risk of brain disease in diabetes by using therapies to reduce arterial stiffening.
