Abstract
This study was conducted at Department of Zoology, University of Gujrat, Pakistan in 2017. The data regarding diabetes as cardiovascular risk factor was obtained and compiled through a thorough review of various published research articles of international reputed journals and relevant books. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity in diabetic patients. Diabetic patients have greater risk of myocardial infarction than non-diabetics. Hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, hypertension, insulin resistance are considered as metabolic syndrome that causes coronary artery disease, cerebral vascular disease and peripheral arterial disease and ultimately leads to death. Cardiovascular diseases can be treated by changing lifestyle and by using different hypoglycemic agents and different therapies.
