Asymptomatic patients with NDT2DM in more than 90% of cases may present with calcified atherosclerotic plaques and this may be predicted by: patient weight and the level of systolic arterial pressure. Our study emphasizes the need for comprehensive care and early prevention of cardiovascular complications in individuals with NDT2DM.
