Abstract

Abstract Background Knowledge of the characteristics of first-ever cardiovascular events in type 1 diabetes may impact primary prevention strategies. This study describes the first-ever manifestation of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in Catalonia (Spain) and evaluates differences according to age and sex. Methods Retrospective cohort study of patients with T1D > 30 years without CVD before 2010 registered in the SIDIAP database. The occurrence of a first cardiovascular event up to the end of 2016, the type of CV event and associations with baseline characteristics were analysed. Results Of 8412 patients, 884 suffered a first CV event (incidence rate 1.62 per 100 persons-years). Overall, peripheral vascular disease (39.5%) was the most frequent event. We observed a higher proportion of heart failure in women (21.7%) than in men (10.1%). In women, heart failure was the most frequent event in those > 65 years (40.5%). Decreased glomerular filtration rate (hazard ratio [HR] 5.42 [95% CI 4.32;6.80]), elevated albumin/creatinine ratio (HR 3.39 [95% CI [2.47;4.66], microvascular complications (HR 3.27 [95% CI 2.85;3.75]), and hypertension (HR 3.21 [95% CI [2.80;3.67]) were most strongly associated with a first CV event. HbA1c > 7.0% was associated with incident CVD only in patients aged < 55/60 years. Conclusions Peripheral artery disease in the whole cohort, and heart failure in elder subjects are the most frequent first-ever CVD events in T1D in our region. These findings deserve to be taken into account when considering primary prevention measures and when estimating CV risk in people with T1D.
