Abstract
Introduction- Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease hallmarked by raised blood glucose concentration and because of its consequences, it has high morbidity rate. The studies indicate that individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) frequently have left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Therefore, this study was planned to assess the prevalence and determinants of LVH in T2DM in order to delay or avoid the onset of cardiac complications and to give a carefully focused intervention aimed at lowering morbidity and mortality in patients with T2DM.
