Outline of Final Research Achievements

Diabetic macroangiopathy is a common cause of mortality in patients with diabetes. Predicting diabetic macroangiopathy is important for personalized treatmen. We studied novel predicting factors for atherosclerosis in patinets with diabetes using coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and carotid maximum intima-media thickness (max-IMT). We showed that max-IMT and MDA-LDL-related variables are useful predictors for coronary artery stenosis in patietnts with type 2 diabetes.
