Conditions

Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Brief summary

This study aims to estimate the number of patients with cardiovascular disease and risk factors in patients who had been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Simultaneously, this study also intends to obtain more information about the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with established cardiovascular disease. This study is non-interventional, which means that will not require participant's further related visits or procedures. The study will collect the participant's clinical data from the current visit and, when applicable, within the last 3 years.
