Comparable performance of 1,5-anhydroglucitol and continuous glucose monitoring in detecting subclinical atherosclerosis in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes
Study context
- Population
- Adults aged ≥ 60 years with T2D
- Participants
- 2,509 adults
- Outcome
- Abnormal CIMT (mean thickness ≥ 1.0 mm by high-resolution US)
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
Abnormal CIMT (mean thickness ≥ 1.0 mm)
Prevalence of abnormal carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), all participants
44.2%
n = 1,109
Observational data: associations, not effects.
Further findings
Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metrics and abnormal CIMT
- Time in range (TIR), mean sensor glucose (MSG) and time above range (TAR) > 10.0, but not coefficient of variation (CV) or SD, significantly associated with abnormal CIMT
