- Abstract
Exercise capacity has been used as a noninvasive parameter for predicting cardiovascular events. It has been demonstrated previously in NIDDM patients that several risk factors (i.e., obesity, smoking, hypertension, and African-American race) are associated with an impaired exercise capacity. We studied 265 male and 154 female NIDDM patients who underwent graded exercise testing with expired gas analyses to determine the possible influences of diabetic neuropathy, nephropathy, and retinopathy on exercise capacity.
