Glucose comes from foods you eat. The cells of your body need glucose for energy. A hormone called insulin helps the glucose get into your cells.</p> <p>With <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabetestype1.html\">type 1 diabetes</a>, your body doesn't make insulin. With <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabetestype2.html\">type 2 diabetes</a>, your body doesn't make or use insulin well. Without enough insulin, glucose builds up in your blood and causes high blood sugar levels.</p> <h3>What is diabetic heart disease?</h3> <p>Diabetic heart disease is a term for <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/heartdiseases.html\">heart disease</a> in people who have diabetes. If you have diabetes, you are much more likely to develop heart disease or have a <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/stroke.html\">stroke</a> than people who don't have diabetes. And you may start having these problems at a younger age.</p> <p>Over time, the effects of high blood sugar from diabetes can include damage to the blood vessels and nerves in your heart. This damage increases your chance of developing heart diseases, including:</p> <ul> <li><strong><a href=\"coronaryarterydisease.html\" tid=\"1276\">Coronary artery disease (CAD)</a>.</strong> It happens slowly as a sticky material called <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/atherosclerosis.html\">plaque builds up in the arteries</a> that supply your heart muscle with blood.</li> <li><strong><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/heartfailure.html\">Heart failure</a>.</strong> With this condition, your heart can't pump enough oxygen-rich blood to meet the needs of your body.</li> <li><strong><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/cardiomyopathy.html\">Cardiomyopathy</a>.</strong> This is a group of diseases in which the heart muscle may become thick or stiff.</li> </ul> <h3>Who is more likely to develop diabetic heart disease?</h3> <p>Diabetes puts you at serious risk for heart disease. It also makes you more likely to develop other conditions that raise your risk even more, including:</p> <ul> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/highbloodpressure.html\">High blood pressure</a></li> <li>High blood levels of <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/ldlthebadcholesterol.html\">LDL &quot;bad&quot; cholesterol</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/triglycerides.html\">High triglycerides</a> (a type of fat in your blood) with low blood levels of <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/hdlthegoodcholesterol.html\">HDL &quot;good&quot; cholesterol</a></li> </ul> <p>Your risk for heart disease is also higher if you</p> <ul> <li>Are male</li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/smoking.html\">Smoke</a></li> <li>Have <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/obesity.html\">obesity</a></li> <li>Have too much belly fat around your waist, even though you're at a healthy weight: <ul> <li>For men, that's a waist more than 40 inches</li> <li>For women, that's a waist more than 35 inches</li> </ul> </li> <li>Have a family history of heart disease</li> <li>Have <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/chronickidneydisease.html\">chronic kidney disease</a></li> </ul> <h3>What are the symptoms of diabetic heart disease?</h3> <p>In the early stages, heart disease usually doesn't have any symptoms. But if your heart disease worsens, you can have symptoms. Your symptoms will depend on the type of heart disease you have. They might include:</p> <ul> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/breathingproblems.html\">Shortness of breath</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/fatigue.html\">Fatigue</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/dizzinessandvertigo.html\">Dizziness</a> or <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/fainting.html\">fainting</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/arrhythmia.html\">Arrhythmia</a> (problem with the rate or rhythm of your heartbeat)</li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/edema.html\">Swollen feet and ankles</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/chestpain.html\">Chest pain</a></li> </ul> <p>It's important to know that people with diabetes may not feel chest pain. That's because diabetes can damage the nerves in your heart. If you have any symptoms that could be heart disease, talk with your health care provider.</p> <h3>How is diabetic heart disease diagnosed?</h3> <p>To find out if you have diabetic heart disease, your provider will:</p> <ul> <li>Ask about your <strong>medical history</strong>, including your symptoms and other health conditions you may have</li> <li>Ask about your <strong>family history</strong>, to find out if you have relatives who have or had heart disease</li> <li>Do a <strong>physical exam</strong></li> <li>Likely run some <strong>tests</strong> to help understand your <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/heart-disease-risk-assessment/\">personal risk for heart disease</a>, including: <ul> <li>Blood tests to check your <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/cholesterol-levels/&quot;&quot;\">cholesterol</a>, <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/triglycerides-test/\">triglycerides</a>, and <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/blood-glucose-test/\">blood sugar levels</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/measuring-blood-pressure/\">A blood-pressure check</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/hearthealthtests.html\">Heart tests</a>, if needed</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>Depending on your risk level, your provider may send you to a cardiologist (a doctor who specializes in heart diseases) for care. If you do have heart disease, treatment will depend on the type of heart disease you have.</p> <h3>How can I prevent diabetic heart disease?</h3> <p>You may be able to prevent heart disease or keep it from getting worse by working with your provider to:</p> <ul> <li>Control your blood sugar levels</li> <li>Manage other conditions you may have that can raise your risk for heart disease </li> <li>Take any medicines your provider prescribed</li> <li>Make <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/howtopreventheartdisease.html\">heart-healthy habits</a> part of your daily life</li> <li><a

<p>Diabetes, also known as diabetes mellitus, is a disease in which your <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/bloodglucose.html\">blood glucose</a>, or blood sugar, levels are too high. Glucose is your body's main source of energy. Your body can make glucose, but it also comes from the food you eat. Insulin is a <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/hormones.html\">hormone</a> made by your pancreas. Insulin helps move glucose from your bloodstream into your cells, where it can be used for energy.</p> <p>If you have diabetes, your body can't make insulin, can't use insulin as well as it should, or both. Too much glucose stays in your blood and doesn't reach your cells. This can cause glucose levels to get too high. Over time, high blood glucose levels can lead to <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabetescomplications.html\">serious health conditions</a>. But you can take steps to manage your diabetes and try to prevent these health problems.</p> <h3>What are the types of diabetes?</h3> <p>There are different types of diabetes:</p> <ul> <li><strong><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabetestype1.html\">Type 1 diabetes</a></strong>. If you have type 1 diabetes, your body makes little or no insulin. It happens when your <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/immunesystemanddisorders.html\">immune system</a> attacks and destroys the cells that produce insulin. </li> <li><strong><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabetestype2.html\">Type 2 diabetes</a>.</strong> This is the most common form of diabetes. If you have type 2 diabetes, your body may still be able to make insulin, but your cells don't respond well to insulin. They can't easily take up enough glucose from your blood.</li> <li><strong><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabetesandpregnancy.html\">Gestational diabetes</a>.</strong> This is a form of diabetes that develops during pregnancy. It happens when your body can't make the extra insulin it needs during pregnancy.</li> </ul> <h3>What causes diabetes?</h3> <p>The different types of diabetes have different causes:</p> <ul> <li>Researchers think <strong>type 1 diabetes</strong> is caused by <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/type-1-diabetes/\">genes</a> and factors in the environment that might trigger the disease.</li> <li><strong>Type 2 diabetes</strong> is caused by several factors, including lifestyle factors and <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/type-2-diabetes\">genes</a>. The lifestyle factors include <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/healthrisksofaninactivelifestyle.html\">not being physically active</a> and being overweight or having <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/obesity.html\">obesity</a>.</li> <li>Researchers think <strong>gestational diabetes</strong> is caused by the hormonal changes of pregnancy along with <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/gestational-diabetes/\">genetic</a> and lifestyle factors.</li> </ul> <h3>Who is more likely to develop diabetes?</h3> <p>The different types of diabetes have different risk factors:</p> <ul> <li>You can develop <strong>type 1 diabetes</strong> at any age, but it most often starts in childhood. Having a parent or sibling with type 1 diabetes may increase your chance of developing it.</li> <li>You are at higher risk of developing <strong>type 2 diabetes</strong> if you:</li> <ul> <li>Are overweight or have obesity.</li> <li>Are over age 35. <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabetesinchildrenandteens.html\">Children, teenagers,</a> and younger adults can get diabetes, but it is more common in middle-aged and older adults.</li> <li>Have a family history of diabetes.</li> <li>Have <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/prediabetes.html\">prediabetes</a>. This means that your blood glucose is higher than normal, but it's not high enough to be called diabetes.</li> <li>Had gestational diabetes.</li> <li>Have given birth to a baby weighing 9 pounds or more.</li> <li>Are African American, American Indian, Asian American, Hispanic/Latino, or Pacific Islander.</li> <li>Are not physically active.</li> <li>Have certain other health conditions, such as <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/highbloodpressure.html\">high blood pressure</a> or <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/polycysticovarysyndrome.html\">polycystic ovary syndrome</a> (PCOS).</li> </ul> <li>You are at higher risk of developing <strong>gestational diabetes</strong> if you:</li> <ul> <li>Are overweight or have obesity.</li> <li>Have a family history of diabetes.</li> <li>Had gestational diabetes in a previous pregnancy.</li> <li>Have given birth to a baby weighing 9 pounds or more.</li> <li>Have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).</li> <li>Are African American, Hispanic/Latino, American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, or Pacific Islander.</li> </ul> </ul> <h3>What are the symptoms of diabetes?</h3> <p>The symptoms of diabetes may include:</p> <ul> <li>Feeling very thirsty</li> <li>Feeling very hungry</li> <li>Urinating (peeing) more often, including at night</li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/fatigue.html\">Fatigue</a></li> <li>Blurry vision</li> <li>Numbness or tingling in the feet or hands</li> <li>Sores that do not heal</li> <li>Losing weight without trying</li> </ul> <p>But it's important to know that your symptoms may vary, depending on which type you have:</p> <ul> <li>The symptoms of <strong>type 1 diabetes</strong> usually come on quickly and can be severe.</li> <li>With <strong>type 2 diabetes,</strong> the symptoms often develop slowly, over several years. The symptoms can be so mild that you might not even notice them.</li> <li><strong>Gestational diabetes</strong> often has no symptoms. If you do have symptoms, they may be mild. If you are pregnant, you will usually be screened for this condition between 24 and 28 weeks of pregnancy. </li> </ul> <h3>How is diabetes diagnosed?</h3> <p>To find out if you have diabetes, your health care provider will use one or more <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/blood-glucose-test/\">glucose blood tests</a>. There are several types, including the <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/a1c.html\">A1C test</a>.</p> <h3>What are the treatments for diabetes?</h3> <p>Treatment for diabetes involves managing your blood glucose levels:</p> <ul> <li>If you have <strong>type 1 diabetes,</strong> you will need to take daily doses of insulin, either by injection or through a special pump. Some people also need to take another type of <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabetesmedicines.html\">diabetes medicine</a> that works with insulin.</li> <li>If you have <strong>type 2 diabetes,</strong> you may be able to manage or even reverse it by making <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/howtopreventdiabetes.html\">lifestyle changes</a>. These include eating a <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabeticdiet.html\">healthy diet</a>, <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/weightcontrol.html\">staying at healthy weight</a>, and <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/howmuchexercisedoineed.html\">getting regular physical activity</a>. Some people also need to take diabetes medicines to manage their diabetes.</li> <li>If you have <strong>gestational diabetes,</strong> you may be able to lower your glucose levels by eating a healthy diet and getting regular exercise. But be sure to talk to your provider about your treatment options. Gestational diabetes usually goes away after you give birth. But you will have a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes later.</li> </ul> <p>Checking your blood glucose levels is also an important part of managing your diabetes.

Glucose comes from foods you eat. The cells of your body need glucose for energy. A hormone called insulin helps the glucose get into your cells.</p> <p>With <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabetestype1.html\">type 1 diabetes</a>, your body doesn't make insulin. With <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabetestype2.html\">type 2 diabetes</a>, your body doesn't make or use insulin well. Without enough insulin, glucose builds up in your blood and causes high blood sugar levels.</p> <h3>What is diabetic heart disease?</h3> <p>Diabetic heart disease is a term for <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/heartdiseases.html\">heart disease</a> in people who have diabetes. If you have diabetes, you are much more likely to develop heart disease or have a <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/stroke.html\">stroke</a> than people who don't have diabetes. And you may start having these problems at a younger age.</p> <p>Over time, the effects of high blood sugar from diabetes can include damage to the blood vessels and nerves in your heart. This damage increases your chance of developing heart diseases, including:</p> <ul> <li><strong><a href=\"coronaryarterydisease.html\" tid=\"1276\">Coronary artery disease (CAD)</a>.</strong> It happens slowly as a sticky material called <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/atherosclerosis.html\">plaque builds up in the arteries</a> that supply your heart muscle with blood.</li> <li><strong><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/heartfailure.html\">Heart failure</a>.</strong> With this condition, your heart can't pump enough oxygen-rich blood to meet the needs of your body.</li> <li><strong><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/cardiomyopathy.html\">Cardiomyopathy</a>.</strong> This is a group of diseases in which the heart muscle may become thick or stiff.</li> </ul> <h3>Who is more likely to develop diabetic heart disease?</h3> <p>Diabetes puts you at serious risk for heart disease. It also makes you more likely to develop other conditions that raise your risk even more, including:</p> <ul> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/highbloodpressure.html\">High blood pressure</a></li> <li>High blood levels of <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/ldlthebadcholesterol.html\">LDL &quot;bad&quot; cholesterol</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/triglycerides.html\">High triglycerides</a> (a type of fat in your blood) with low blood levels of <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/hdlthegoodcholesterol.html\">HDL &quot;good&quot; cholesterol</a></li> </ul> <p>Your risk for heart disease is also higher if you</p> <ul> <li>Are male</li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/smoking.html\">Smoke</a></li> <li>Have <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/obesity.html\">obesity</a></li> <li>Have too much belly fat around your waist, even though you're at a healthy weight: <ul> <li>For men, that's a waist more than 40 inches</li> <li>For women, that's a waist more than 35 inches</li> </ul> </li> <li>Have a family history of heart disease</li> <li>Have <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/chronickidneydisease.html\">chronic kidney disease</a></li> </ul> <h3>What are the symptoms of diabetic heart disease?</h3> <p>In the early stages, heart disease usually doesn't have any symptoms. But if your heart disease worsens, you can have symptoms. Your symptoms will depend on the type of heart disease you have. They might include:</p> <ul> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/breathingproblems.html\">Shortness of breath</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/fatigue.html\">Fatigue</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/dizzinessandvertigo.html\">Dizziness</a> or <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/fainting.html\">fainting</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/arrhythmia.html\">Arrhythmia</a> (problem with the rate or rhythm of your heartbeat)</li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/edema.html\">Swollen feet and ankles</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/chestpain.html\">Chest pain</a></li> </ul> <p>It's important to know that people with diabetes may not feel chest pain. That's because diabetes can damage the nerves in your heart. If you have any symptoms that could be heart disease, talk with your health care provider.</p> <h3>How is diabetic heart disease diagnosed?</h3> <p>To find out if you have diabetic heart disease, your provider will:</p> <ul> <li>Ask about your <strong>medical history</strong>, including your symptoms and other health conditions you may have</li> <li>Ask about your <strong>family history</strong>, to find out if you have relatives who have or had heart disease</li> <li>Do a <strong>physical exam</strong></li> <li>Likely run some <strong>tests</strong> to help understand your <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/heart-disease-risk-assessment/\">personal risk for heart disease</a>, including: <ul> <li>Blood tests to check your <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/cholesterol-levels/&quot;&quot;\">cholesterol</a>, <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/triglycerides-test/\">triglycerides</a>, and <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/blood-glucose-test/\">blood sugar levels</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/lab-tests/measuring-blood-pressure/\">A blood-pressure check</a></li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/hearthealthtests.html\">Heart tests</a>, if needed</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>Depending on your risk level, your provider may send you to a cardiologist (a doctor who specializes in heart diseases) for care. If you do have heart disease, treatment will depend on the type of heart disease you have.</p> <h3>How can I prevent diabetic heart disease?</h3> <p>You may be able to prevent heart disease or keep it from getting worse by working with your provider to:</p> <ul> <li>Control your blood sugar levels</li> <li>Manage other conditions you may have that can raise your risk for heart disease </li> <li>Take any medicines your provider prescribed</li> <li>Make <a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/howtopreventheartdisease.html\">heart-healthy habits</a> part of your daily life</li> <li><a href=\"https://medlineplus.gov/diabeticdiet.html\">Follow a healthy eating plan for diabetes</a></li> </ul> <p class=\"\">NIH: National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases</p>"],"http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/MEDLINEPLUS/MP_PRIMARY_INSTITUTE_URL":["National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases https://www.niddk.nih.gov"],"http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/MEDLINEPLUS/MP_OTHER_LANGUAGE_URL":["Spanish https://medlineplus.gov/spanish/diabeticheartdisease.html"],"http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#subClassOf":["http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/MEDLINEPLUS/C0014136","http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/MEDLINEPLUS/C2362499","http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/MEDLINEPLUS/C0011849"]},"@id":"http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/MEDLINEPLUS/C3534591","@type":"http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#Class","links":{"self":"https://data.bioontology.org/ontologies/MEDLINEPLUS/classes/http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.bioontology.org%2Fontology%2FMEDLINEPLUS%2FC3534591","ontology":"https://data.bioontology.org/ontologies/MEDLINEPLUS","children":"https://data.bioontology.org/ontologies/MEDLINEPLUS/classes/http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.bioontology.org%2Fontology%2FMEDLINEPLUS%2FC3534591/children","parents":"https://data.bioontology.org/ontologies/MEDLINEPLUS/classes/http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.bioontology.org%2Fontology%2FMEDLINEPLUS%2FC3534591/parents","descendants":"https://data.bioontology.org/ontologies/MEDLINEPLUS/classes/http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.bioontology.org%2Fontology%2FMEDLINEPLUS%2FC3534591/descendants","ancestors":"https://data.bioontology.org/ontologies/MEDLINEPLUS/classes/http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.bioontology.org%2Fontology%2FMEDLINEPLUS%2FC3534591/ancestors","instances":"https://data.bioontology.org/ontologies/MEDLINEPLUS/classes/http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.bioontology.org%2Fontology%2FMEDLINEPLUS%2FC3534591/instances","tree":"https://data.bioontology.org/ontologies/MEDLINEPLUS/classes/http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.bioontology.org%2Fontology%2FMEDLINEPLUS%2FC3534591/tree","notes":"https://data.bioontology.org/ontologies/MEDLINEPLUS/classes/http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.bioontology.org%2Fontology%2FMEDLINEPLUS%2FC3534591/notes","mappings":"https://data.bioontology.org/ontologies/MEDLINEPLUS/classes/http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.bioontology.org%2Fontology%2FMEDLINEPLUS%2FC3534591/mappings","ui":"http://bioportal.bioontology.org/ontologies/MEDLINEPLUS?p=classes&conceptid=http%3A%2F%2Fpurl.bioontology.org%2Fontology%2FMEDLINEPLUS%2FC3534591","@context":{"self":"http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#Class","ontology":"http://data.bioontology.org/metadata/Ontology","children":"http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#Class","parents":"http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#Class","descendants":"http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#Class","ancestors":"http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#Class","instances":"http://data.bioontology.org/metadata/Instance","tree":"http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#Class","notes":"http://data.bioontology.org/metadata/Note","mappings":"http://data.bioontology.org/metadata/Mapping","ui":"http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#Class"}},"@context":{"@vocab":"http://data.bioontology.org/metadata/","label":"http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label","prefLabel":"http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#prefLabel","prefLabelXl":"http://www.w3.org/2008/05/skos-xl#prefLabel","altLabelXl":"http://www.w3.org/2008/05/skos-xl#altLabel","hiddenLabelXl":"http://www.w3.org/2008/05/skos-xl#hiddenLabel","synonym":"http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#altLabel","definition":"http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#definition","obsolete":"http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#deprecated","notation":"http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#notation","prefixIRI":"http://data.bioontology.org/metadata/prefixIRI","parents":"http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema##<Proc:0x00007f771cfb6360 /opt/ontoportal/ontologies_api/shared/bundle/ruby/3.2.0/bundler/gems/ontologies_linked_data-0083660248b7/lib/ontologies_linked_data/models/class.rb:67 (lambda)>","subClassOf":"http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#subClassOf","semanticType":"http://bioportal.bioontology.org/ontologies/umls/hasSTY","cui":"http://bioportal.bioontology.org/ontologies/umls/cui","xref":"http://www.geneontology.org/formats/oboInOwl#hasDbXref","inScheme":"http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#inScheme","created":"http://purl.org/dc/terms/created","modified":"http://purl.org/dc/terms/modified","@language":[]}}
