1Hyperglycemia at the Vessel Wall
2Potential hyperglycemia-induced tissue damage
Genetic determinants
Repeated acute changes in cellular metabolism
Diabetic tissue damage
Hyperglycemia
Cumulative long-term changes in stable
macromolecules
Independent accelerating factors
eg, hypertension, hyperlipidemia
