About
The aim of the study is to compare ESC recommendations on cardiovascular (CV) risk stratification with the achievement of a CAC (Coronary Artery Calcification).
The development of a CAC, currently not systematically offered to these patients to refine CV risk, could make it possible to offer more intensive management of CV risk facors for patients who objectively have a high CV risk as evidenced by a high coronary calcium score.
LDL target recommandations have become more aggressive with a very high level of evidence in type 2 diabetic patients but low in type 1 diabetic patients because there is no specific CV intervention study for T1D patients.
These recommendations have far-reaching consequences because they would justify introducing in young type 1 diabetic patients, considered from the outset to be at moderate cardiovascular risk (young T1DM <35 years old) or even at high cardiovascular risk (duration of diabetes > 10 years) or very high cardiovascular risk (duration of diabetes > 20 years), treatment with statins or even aspirin, based only on the length of time they have had diabetes.
The realization of a CAC, currently not systematically offered to these patients to refine CV risk, could make it possible to propose a more intensive management of CV risk factors for patients with objectively high CV risk attested by a high coronary calcium score.
In this case the introduction of treatment with statins would be indicated.
