Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is marked by increased morbidity and mortality because of its effects on the vascular system, which are both direct and indirect. Microvasculopathy is primarily caused by hyperglycemia. Various organ systems are damaged and fail as a result of T2DM and its complications. There are two types of adverse effects of hyperglycemia: macrovascular complications and microvascular complications. It is very important that physicians understand the relationship between diabetes and vascular disease because diabetes prevalence is increasing in the India, and the clinical arsenal for first and secondary prevention of these complications is expanding
