Type 2 & other diabetes

Plasma copeptin and markers of arterial disorder in patients with type 2 diabetes, a cross-sectional study

Cardiovasc DiabetolPublished Cross-sectional study

Authors' conclusion

Plasma copeptin may be a helpful surrogate for identifying individuals at higher risk for arterial disorders.

Study context

Population
Patients with T2D aged 55–65 years with no history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) at baseline, CARDIPP study
Participants
519 patients
Outcome
Association of copeptin, MRproADM and MRproANP with toe brachial index (TBI) and aortic pulse wave velocity (aPWV)

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Copeptin and toe brachial index (TBI): β (CI −0.0035- (−0.0005), p = 0.010)

−0.0020

Copeptin and aortic pulse wave velocity (aPWV): β

0.023

CI 0.002–0.044p = 0.035

Observational data: associations, not effects.
