Cardiovascular Risk Stratification in Young People With Type 1 Diabetes
A study testing Coronary Artery Calcification Realization in people with Type 1 Diabetes and Coronary Artery Calcification, run by Poitiers University Hospital at 1 site in France.
Trial summary
The aim of the study is to compare ESC recommendations on cardiovascular (CV) risk stratification with the achievement of a CAC (Coronary Artery Calcification). The development of a CAC, currently not systematically offered to these patients to refine CV risk, could make it possible to offer more intensive management… Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Comparison of Cardiovascular Risk Stratification in Young People With Type 1 Diabetes by Coronary Calcium Score to ESC/ESA2019 Recommendations
The aim of the study is to compare ESC recommendations on cardiovascular (CV) risk stratification with the achievement of a CAC (Coronary Artery Calcification).
The development of a CAC, currently not systematically offered to these patients to refine CV risk, could make it possible to offer more intensive management of CV risk facors for patients who objectively have a high CV risk as evidenced by a high coronary calcium score.

LDL target recommandations have become more aggressive with a very high level of evidence in type 2 diabetic patients but low in type 1 diabetic patients because there is no specific CV intervention study for T1D patients.
These recommendations have far-reaching consequences because they would justify introducing in young type 1 diabetic patients, considered from the outset to be at moderate cardiovascular risk (young T1DM <35 years old) or even at high cardiovascular risk (duration of diabetes > 10 years) or very high cardiovascular risk (duration of diabetes > 20 years), treatment with statins or even aspirin, based only on the length of time they have had diabetes.
The realization of a CAC, currently not systematically offered to these patients to refine CV risk, could make it possible to propose a more intensive management of CV risk factors for patients with objectively high CV risk attested by a high coronary calcium score.
In this case the introduction of treatment with statins would be indicated.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change of Statin Prescription Indication Between Consensus of the French Society of Cardiology and the French Speaking Society of Diabetology 2020 and the ESC/EASD Consensus
Patients for whom the indication for prescribing statins for primary prevention would change if the CAC score were used as a diagnostic tool for cardiovascular risk instead of the 2019 ESC/EASD guidelines in patients with type 1 diabetes aged 18 to 35.
Measured: 1 day
