Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes (DM) can be thought of as twin epidemics,
and the diagnosis of one dramatically increases the risk of developing the other.
This risk has been well described, dating back half a century. In the late 1970s,
the foundational Framingham study documented a 2–3-fold increased risk of atherosclerotic
cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) in individuals with DM.

This increased risk holds true in heart failure (HF) as well.

Looking forward, given the aging of the population and the increasing prevalence
of urbanization, obesogenic diets and sedentary lifestyles, the incidence of DM, as
well as ASCVD and HF, will only continue to rise.
