The Epidemiology of Cardiovascular Disease in Adults with Type 1 Diabetes
2017
Abstract In the era following the publication of results from the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial / Epidemiology of Diabetes Complications (DCCT/EDIC) study, care for patients with type 1 diabetes has dramatically improved. Despite these significant advancements in knowledge regarding the management of this chronic disease, however, individuals with type 1 diabetes continue to experience increased morbidity and mortality compared to the general population. The present review specifically focused on the epidemiology of cardiovascular complications among adults with type 1 diabetes, summarizing evidence on the prevalence, incidence, mortality, as well as on predictors of cardiovascular disease in this population.
