Domuschiev Ivan, Severeyn Erika, Shmuel Levit

Background: The problem Pulse Rate Variability (PRV) in type 2 diabetes and increased body mass index has not been studied enough. Type 2 diabetes affects the peripheral vasculature leading to coronary, cerebral and peripheral vascular disease associated with oxidative stress and inflammatory processes. Similarly increase body weight also changes oxidative stress and inflammation that may adversely affect diabetes disease progression.
