ABSTRACT
AIMAim of this study was to evaluate Predicted 4 and 10-years risk of major CVD of DMpatients.METHODSCross-sectional study included 80 (40 male and 40 female) DM patients with meanage 66.32 ±7.94 years old. Predicted 4-year risk of major CVD was calculated by usingADVANCE Risk Engine of the George Institute for Global Health, Australia. Ten parameters(age at diagnosed diabetes, duration of diabetes, sex, atrial fibrillation, retinopathy,HbA1C, pulse pressure, treated hypertension, albuminuria and Non HDL-cholesterol)were used for risk calculation. Predicted 10-year risk of major CVD was calculated byusing WHO/ISH risk prediction chartrs Parameters (age, sex, systolic blood pressure, totalcholesterol, smoking) were used for risk calculation.RESULTSOur study relieved that average of diagnosis diabetes was 54.98±9.37 years oldand mean diabetes duration was 11.35±7.46 years. DM patient with atrial fibrillation,retinopathy and treated hypertension were 0(0%), 20(16%) and 77.5(62%). Mean HbA1C,microalbuminuria and Non HDL cholesterol were 7.74±1.5%, 49.99±94.02 mg/l and3.61±1.08 mmol/l. DM patients with 20% Predicted 4-year riskof major CVD were 64( 80%), 12 (15%) and 4(5.0%). Age (p30% Predicted 10-year risk of major CVDwere 44 (55%), 20 (25%), 6 (7.5.0%) and 10 (12.5%). Age (p=0.008), total cholesterol(p=0.001), systolic blood pressure (p=0.001) and treated hypertension (p=0.023) wererisks for Predicted 10-year risk of major CVD.CONCLUSIONSAmong the diabetic patients 80% have a low, 15% have a moderate and 5.0%have a high Predicted 4-year risk of major CVD. Age (p<0.042), age at diagnoseddiabetes (p=0.013), , duration of diabetes (p=0.045), total cholesterol (p<0.027)Microalbuminuria (p<0.001) and retinopathy (p=0.028) were risks for Predicted 4-yearrisk of major CVD. Among the diabetic patients 55% have a low, 25% have a moderate,7.5% have a high and 12.5% have a very high Predicted 10-year risk of major CVD. Age(p=0.008), total cholesterol (p=0.00, systolic blood pressure (p=0.001) and treatedhypertension (p=0.023) were risks for Predicted 10-year risk of major CVD.
