Variation in the achievement of HbA1c, blood pressure and LDL cholesterol targets in type 2 diabetes in general practice and characteristics associated with risk factor control

November 3rd 2019

Clinical diabetes management is difficult, and few people meet all three risk factor control targets. The proportion of people reaching target varied among general practitioners and practices. Several population, general practitioner and practice characteristics only explained a small part of the total variation (Diabetic Medicine)

LDL cholesterol is not a good marker of cardiovascular risk in Type 1 diabetes

October 26th 2015

In this study of people with Type 1 diabetes in clinical practice, LDL–C was not a good predictor of CVD. We found no support for an LDL–C cut-off point < 2.6 mmol/l. TC/HDL–C seems more reliable as a marker for CVD risk when considering primary prevention (Diabetic Medicine)

Association Between Familial Hypercholesterolemia and Prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

March 11th 2015

In a cross-sectional analysis in the Netherlands, the prevalence of type 2 diabetes among patients with familial hypercholesterolemia was significantly lower than among unaffected relatives, with variability by mutation type. If this finding is confirmed in longitudinal analysis, it would raise the possibility of a causal relationship between LDL receptor-mediated transmembrane cholesterol transport and type 2 diabetes (JAMA)
