Summary

Diabetes is a growing global health care challenge. Diabetes patients may also suffer from cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) which may affect cerebral perfusion. The main purpose of this project is to investigate the association between CAN and disturbances in the neurovascular coupling in type 2 diabetes patients. Moreover, the purpose is also to investigate coherence between CAN and the enteric nervous system. Finally, this project aims at delineating microstructural changes in the brain tissues as a consequence of CAN.
