Long-term trends in excess risk of death and cardiovascular outcomes have not been extensively studied persons with type 1 diabetes or 2 diabetes.We included patients registered the Swedish National Diabetes Register from 1998 through 2012 followed them 2014. Trends deaths events were estimated Cox regression standardized incidence rates. For each patient, controls who matched for age, sex, county randomly selected general population.Among diabetes, absolute changes during study period rates...

Background: Risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality for patients with versus without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) appears to vary by the age at T2DM diagnosis, but few population studies have analyzed CVD outcomes associations across full range. Methods: With use Swedish National Diabetes Registry, everyone registered in Registry between 1998 2012 was included. Controls were randomly selected from general matched age, sex, county. The analysis cohort comprised 318 083 just...

Abstract Aims To develop and validate a recalibrated prediction model (SCORE2-Diabetes) to estimate the 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in individuals with type 2 diabetes Europe. Methods results SCORE2-Diabetes was developed by extending SCORE2 algorithms using individual-participant data from four large-scale datasets comprising 229 460 participants (43 706 CVD events) without previous CVD. Sex-specific competing risk-adjusted models were used including conventional factors...

OBJECTIVE—Risk prediction models obtained in samples from the general population do not perform well type 2 diabetic patients. Recently, 5-year risk estimates were proposed as being more accurate than 10-year estimates. This study presents a diabetes-specific equation for estimation of absolute first incident fatal/nonfatal cardiovascular disease (CVD) patients with use A1C and clinical characteristics. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—The was based on 11,646 female male patients, aged 18–70...
