Prevalence of arrhythmias in patients with type 2 diabetes and the role of structural changes in myocardium in their development

This study revealed the signs of the morphological restructuring of the right chambers of the heart and a relatively high prevalence of supraventricular arrhythmias in the early stages of type 2 diabetes. Moreover, according to the results, the incidence of some types of supraventricular arrhythmias and the occurrence of tachycardia episodes in patients with type 2 diabetes mostly depends on the restructuring of the right chambers of the heart, which may be caused by the peculiarities of the cardiac innervation, with the higher density of choline and adrenergic plexuses in the right chambers.
