Meeting an increasing number of ICH metrics was significantly associated with lower arterial stiffness (lower PWV of the trunk β = -0.02 ±0.01, p = 0.004; AIx β = -2.2 ±0.66, p = 0.001; and increased BrachD β = 0.14 ±0.07, p = 0.04).

Why the study?

Does meeting more ideal cardiovascular health metrics improve arterial stiffness in adolescents with type 1 diabetes?

Population

190 adolescents with type 1 diabetes from the SEARCH CVD study

Design

Cohort

Follow-up

average 5 years (interquartile range 4-5)

Authors

AAAmy C. AlmanUniversity of South Florida JTJennifer W. TaltonDuke Medical Center RWR. Paul WadwaThe Medical Center of Aurora

Discussion

Member takes

Overview

Supports primordial prevention focus in type 1 diabetes adolescents; leaves open whether ICH interventions causally reduce stiffness or events.

Structured PICO

Does meeting more ideal cardiovascular health metrics improve arterial stiffness in adolescents with type 1 diabetes?

Population

190 adolescents with type 1 diabetes from the SEARCH CVD study

Intervention

Number of ideal cardiovascular health (ICH) metrics met at baseline

Outcome

Measures of arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity [PWV], brachial distensibility [BrachD], and augmentation index [AIx]) and carotid intima-media thicknesssurrogate

In adolescents with type 1 diabetes, meeting more ideal cardiovascular health metrics is associated with decreased arterial stiffness, highlighting the need for primordial prevention in this high-risk group.
