Are obesity- and insulin resistance-related indices, specifically CVAI, associated with subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in adults with type 1 diabetes?
CVAI is strongly associated with subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in adults with type 1 diabetes, suggesting its potential as a marker for cardiovascular risk assessment.
Among various OIRIs, CVAI shows the strongest association with SCA in adults with T1D. These findings suggest that CVAI may merit further longitudinal investigation as a potential marker for SCA assessment in this population.
