Aggravated Systemic Inflammation and Atherogenicity in African Patients Living With Type 2 Diabetes and Hypertension Comorbidity

Abstract

HTN comorbidity in T2D is associated with exacerbated levels of inflammation and atherogenicity. NLR is a significant independent risk factor for increased atherogenicity in patients with T2D. Therefore, the use of therapeutic strategies that target and alleviate inflammation in patients with T2D and HTN comorbidity is imperative in reducing the initiating and progression of cardiovascular events (CVEs).
