May prompt lipid assessment in type 1 diabetes adolescents; leaves open whether lowering alters macrovascular progression.
Observational (n=30)
In adolescents with type 1 diabetes, dyslipidemia and hyperglycemia correlate with early markers of macrovascular disease such as increased carotid intimomedial thickness.
Dabas et al. (2014) conducted an observational in Type 1 diabetes (n=30). Serum lipids and hyperglycemia was evaluated on Correlation of serum lipids to cardiac risk factors and cardiovascular function. Higher serum cholesterol and LDL were significantly associated with increased carotid artery intimomedial thickness (P < 0.05) in adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
