ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND/AIMS:
In type 2 diabetic patients, coronary artery disease (CAD) is usually detected at an advanced stage due to a lack of symptoms. The aim of this study was to define which clinical parameters or non-invasive tests predict CAD in asymptomatic type 2 diabetic patients.METHODS:
One hundred fourteen asymptomatic type 2 diabetic patients were divided into two groups based on the number of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors (group A > or =2, group B or =10 years (OR=3.28; 95% CI, 1.29-8.84) were independent CAD risk factors in asymptomatic patients.CONCLUSIONS:
We recommend a routine screening for CAD in type 2 diabetic patients who have a longer (> or =10 years) diabetic duration or a family history of CAD, even if they are asymptomatic for CAD.
