Impact of Breast Cancer on Cardiometabolic Health in Spanish Women ≥50 Years with Pre-Existing Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

ABSTRACT: During breast cancer (BC), cardiometabolic disorders can worsen prognosis, particularly in women with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to determine the impact of BC diagnosis on cardiometabolic parameters and the incidence of complication in women over 50 years of age (90% aged ≥ 65 years) with pre-existing T2DM. Using primary care registries from Asturias (Spain), a total of 106 women diagnosed with T2DM followed by BC were selected and matched with women with T2DM (n = 212) in a cohort study. Indicators of cardiometabolic health and microvascular complications associated with T2DM were collected. Women were monitored from two years prior to five years after BC diagnosis. Conditional logistic regressions were used to compare the adjusted odds of staying below each
