Resumen: | Objectives Currently used risk scores for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) clearly underestimate cardiovascular risk in type 1 diabetes (T1DM). Hence, there is a need to develop novel and specific risk-estimation tools for this population. We aimed to assess the relationship between the Steno Type 1 Risk Engine (ST1RE) and arterial stiffness (AS), and to identify potential cutoff points of interest in clinical practice. Design and methods A total of 179 patients with T1DM (50. 8% men, mean age 41. 2±13. 1 years), without established cardiovascular disease, were evaluated for clinical and anthropometric data (including classical cardiovascular risk factors), and AS measured by aortic pulse-wave velocity (aPWV). The ST1RE was used to estimate 10-year cardiovascular risk and patients were classified into 3 groups: low- (<10%; n = 105), moderate- (10-20%; n = 53) and high-risk (≥20%; n = 21). Results When compared with the low- and moderate-risk groups, patients in the high-risk group were older, had higher prevalence of hypertension, dyslipidemia and insulin-resistance, and had higher body-mass index and HbA. aPWV increased in parallel with estimated cardiovascular risk (6. 4±1. 0, 8. 4±1. 3 and 10. 3±2. 6m/s; p<0. 001). As an evaluation of model performance, the C-statistic of aPWV was 0. 914 (95% confidence interval [CI]:0. 873-0. 950) for predicting moderate/high-risk and 0. 879 (95%CI:0. 809-0. 948) for high-risk, according to the ST1RE. The best cut-off points of aPWV were 7. 3m/s (sensitivity:86%, specificity:83%) and 8. 7m/s (sensitivity:76%, specificity:86%) for moderate/high- and high-risk, respectively. Conclusions AS is highly correlated with the scores obtained from the ST1RE. We have identified two cut-off points of AS that can clearly discriminate moderate/high- and high-risk T1DM patients, which could be of great value in clinical practice. |
