Abstract

Diabetes is now recognised as a 'coronary equivalent'. However, both the diabetes community and health professionals may not recognise that the presence of diabetes equalises the risk of men and women for coronary artery disease. This article reviews the impact of coronary artery disease for women with diabetes and identifies the importance of early and active intervention.
