<b>Objective: </b>Type 1 (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) increase risks of cardiovascular and renal disease (CVRD) compared to diabetes-free populations. Direct comparisons between T1D and T2D are scarce. We examined this by pooling full-population cohorts in Sweden and Norway. <p><b>Research Design and Methods: </b>59,331 T1D and 484,241 T2D patients, aged 18-84 years, were followed over a mean period of 2.6 years from December 31, 2013. Patients were identified in nationwide prescribed drug and hospital registries in Norway and Sweden<b>. </b>Prevalence and event rates of myocardial infarction (MI), heart failure (HF), stroke, chronic kidney disease (CKD), all-cause death and cardiovascular death were assessed following age stratification in 5-year intervals. Cox regression analyses were used to estimate risk.</p> <p><b>Results: </b>The prevalence of cardiovascular disease was similar in T1D and T2D across age strata, whereas CKD was more common in T1D. Age-adjusted event-rates comparing T1D versus T2D showed that HF risk was increased between the ages 65-79 years, MI between 55-79 years and stroke between 40-54 years, 1.3-1.4-fold, 1.3-1.8-fold and 1.4-1.7 fold respectively. CKD risk was 1.4-3.0-fold higher in T1D at all ages. The all-cause death risk was 1.2-1.5-fold higher in T1D above 50 years, with a similar trend for CV death.</p> <p><b>Conclusions: </b>Adult T1D compared to T2D patients had an overall greater risk of cardiorenal disease (heart failure and CKD) across ages, of MI and all-cause death at middle-older ages and of stroke at younger ages. The total age-adjusted CVRD burden and risks were greater among T1D patients compared to T2D, highlighting their need for improved prevention strategies.</p>

IntroductionLockdown measures have a profound effect on many aspects of daily life relevant for diabetes self-management. We assessed whether lockdown measures, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, differentially affect perceived stress, body weight, exercise and related this to glycemic control in people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.Research design and methodsWe performed a short-term observational cohort study at the Leiden University Medical Center. People with type 1 and type 2 diabetes ≥18 years were eligible to participate. Participants filled out online questionnaires, sent in blood for hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) analysis and shared data of their flash or continuous glucose sensors. HbA1c during the lockdown was compared with the last known HbA1c before the lockdown.ResultsIn total, 435 people were included (type 1 diabetes n=280, type 2 diabetes n=155). An increase in perceived stress and anxiety, weight gain and less exercise was observed in both groups. There was improvement in glycemic control in the group with the highest HbA1c tertile (type 1 diabetes: −0.39% (−4.3 mmol/mol) (p<0.0001 and type 2 diabetes: −0.62% (−6.8 mmol/mol) (p=0.0036). Perceived stress was associated with difficulty with glycemic control (p<0.0001).ConclusionsAn increase in perceived stress and anxiety, weight gain and less exercise but no deterioration of glycemic control occurs in both people with relatively well-controlled type 1 and type 2 diabetes during short-term lockdown measures. As perceived stress showed to be associated with glycemic control, this provides opportunities for healthcare professionals to put more emphasis on psychological aspects during diabetes care consultations.

BACKGROUND: Few studies have examined the relationship between vitamin D levels and incident cardiovascular events in large well-characterized type 2 diabetes cohorts. METHODS: We performed prospective analyses to determine associations between vitamin D status and vascular endpoints among 936 Veterans Affairs Diabetes Trial (VADT) participants (mean age 59.7 years; 96.7% male; 40.4% minority). 25 (OH)-vitamin D was measured a median of two years after entry into the VADT study and participants were subsequently followed an average of 3.7 years for outcomes. Cox proportional hazard models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) for macrovascular endpoints in relation to vitamin D quartile. The primary composite endpoint included documented myocardial infarction; stroke; death from cardiovascular causes; new or worsening congestive heart failure; surgical intervention for cardiac, cerebrovascular, or peripheral vascular disease; inoperable coronary artery disease; and amputation for ischemic gangrene. RESULTS: On average VADT participants had high cardiovascular risk at entry into the study: 65.3% of the patients recruited were obese, 38.5% had previously had a vascular event, 78.7% had hypertension and 59.5% were using statins. During follow-up, 17.2%, 5.0%, 5.9%, 2.4% and 6.6% of participants had a primary composite endpoint, myocardial infarction, chronic heart failure, cardiovascular death or all-cause death, respectively. After adjusting for age, minority status, treatment arm and history of prior event, individuals in the lowest quartile of vitamin D (i.e., 1 to 15.9 ng/ml) were at similar risk of the primary composite endpoint [HR=1.26 (95% CI: 0.81, 1.96)], myocardial infarction [HR=1.13 (95% CI: 0.53, 2.42)], congestive heart failure [HR=1.44 (95% CI: 0.67, 3.06)], cardiovascular death [HR=0.86 (95% CI: 0.28, 2.63)], and death from any cause [HR=1.04 (95% CI: 0.53, 2.04)] as individuals in the highest quartile of vitamin D (i.e., 29.9 to 77.2 ng/ml). CONCLUSIONS: These data indicate that vitamin D status had no significant impact on the incidence of macrovascular events in a cohort of high-risk veterans with type 2 diabetes mellitus in which traditional risk factors were managed according to current treatment guidelines.

Abstract Background Both type 1 and type 2 diabetes are well-established risk factors for cardiovascular disease and early mortality. However, few studies have directly compared the hazards of cardiovascular outcomes and premature death among people with type 1 diabetes to those among people with type 2 diabetes and subjects without diabetes. Furthermore, information about the hazard of cardiovascular disease and early mortality among Asians with type 1 diabetes is sparse, although the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of Asians with type 1 diabetes are unlike those of Europeans. We estimated the hazard of myocardial infarction (MI), hospitalization for heart failure (HF), atrial fibrillation (AF), and mortality during follow-up in Korean adults with type 1 diabetes compared with those without diabetes and those with type 2 diabetes. Methods We used Korean National Health Insurance Service datasets of preventive health check-ups from 2009 to 2016 in this retrospective longitudinal study. The hazard ratios of MI, HF, AF, and mortality during follow-up were analyzed using the Cox regression analyses according to the presence and type of diabetes in ≥ 20-year-old individuals without baseline cardiovascular disease (N = 20,423,051). The presence and type of diabetes was determined based on the presence of type 1 or type 2 diabetes at baseline. Results During more than 93,300,000 person-years of follow-up, there were 116,649 MIs, 135,532 AF cases, 125,997 hospitalizations for HF, and 344,516 deaths. The fully-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for incident MI, hospitalized HF, AF, and all-cause death within the mean follow-up of 4.6 years were higher in the type 1 diabetes group than the type 2 diabetes [HR (95% CI) 1.679 (1.490–1.893) for MI; 2.105 (1.901–2.330) for HF; 1.608 (1.411–1.833) for AF; 1.884 (1.762–2.013) for death] and non-diabetes groups [HR (95% CI) 2.411 (2.138–2.718) for MI; 3.024 (2.730–3.350) for HF; 1.748 (1.534–1.993) for AF; 2.874 (2.689–3.073) for death]. Conclusions In Korea, the presence of diabetes was associated with a higher hazard of cardiovascular disease and all-cause death. Specifically, people with type 1 diabetes had a higher hazard of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality compared to people with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract Aims  Few prospective studies have evaluated sex-specific pattern, natural progression of left ventricular (LV) remodelling, and diastolic dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). The aim of this study was to study the sex-specific prevalence, longitudinal changes of LV remodelling, and diastolic dysfunction in patients with T2DM. Further, the prognostic value of diastolic function in women and men was also evaluated. Methods and results  A total of 350 patients with T2DM (mean age 61 ± 11 years; women, 48.3%) was recruited. Detailed echocardiography was performed at baseline and after 25 months. A major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) was defined as cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, or myocardial infarction. Despite a similar age, prevalence of hypertension and body mass index, women had a higher prevalence of LV hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction at baseline and follow-up compared with men. A total of 21 patients developed MACE (5 cardiovascular death, 9 hospitalization for heart failure, and 7 myocardial infarction) during a median follow-up of 56 months. Women with diastolic dysfunction had a higher incidence of MACE than those with normal diastolic function but this association was neutral in men. Multivariable Cox-regression analysis indicated that diastolic dysfunction was associated with MACE in women [hazard ratio = 6.30; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.06–37.54; P &lt; 0.05] but not men (hazard ratio = 2.29, 95% CI = 0.67–7.89; P = 0.19). Conclusion  LV hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction, both at baseline and follow-up, were more common in women than men. Pre-clinical diastolic dysfunction was independently associated with MACE only in women with T2DM but was neutral in men.

Patients with type 2 diabetes are at increased risk of developing heart failure, cardiovascular death and renal failure. The recent results of three large sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor cardiovascular outcomes trials have demonstrated a reduction in heart failure hospitalisation and progressive renal failure. One trial also showed a fall in cardiovascular and total death. A broad spectrum of patients with diabetes benefit from these salutary effects in cardiac and renal function and so these trials have important implications for the management of patients with type 2 diabetes. Selected glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists have also been shown to reduce adverse cardiovascular outcomes.
