AbstractThe relationship between diabetes and heart failure is complex and bidirectional. Nevertheless, the existence of a cardiomyopathy attributable exclusively to diabetes has been and is still the subject of controversy, due, among other reasons, to a lack of a consensus definition. There is also no unanimous agreement in terms of the physiopathogenic findings that need to be present in the definition of diabetic cardiomyopathy or on its classification, which, added to the lack of diagnostic methods and treatments specific for this disease, limits its general understanding. Studies conducted on diabetic cardiomyopathy, however, suggest a unique physiopathogenesis different from that of other diseases. Similarly, new treatments have been shown to play a potential role in this disease. The following review provides an update on diabetic cardiomyopathy.Copyright © 2020 Elsevier España, S.L.U. and Sociedad Española de Medicina Interna (SEMI). All rights reserved.
