Summary

This study looks at over 1,200 adults with type 2 diabetes and heart muscle problems to see if diabetic cardiomyopathy is a unique condition. Researchers will use detailed medical tests, imaging, and biological data to find patterns. The goal is to better understand and diagnose this type of heart disease.
