| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) leads to the impairment of quality of life and is one of the major causes of mortality, and once it has developed, diabetic patients have worse outcome as compared to non-diabetic patients. Although early detection of the patients to treat will allow clinical interventions to prevent CVD, cardiovascular risk assessment based on conventional risk factors showed only moderate performance. As simple, non-invasive, and inexpensive procedure, carotid ultrasound and measurement of brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) are candidates of the useful tools to assess near future risk at individual level. In this study, we revealed that measurement of carotid intima-media thickness and baPWV as well as ultrasonic tissue characterization of carotid plaques improved the ability to identify the diabetic individuals with high risk for CVD. In addition, a polygenic assessment approach can be a super-early diagnostic tool to identify high risk individuals.
