17Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes
- Cardiovascular disease affects 80 of those
with diabetes - Accounts for 70 of mortality
- 75 of hospital stays in diabetes are for CVD
complications - Up to 50 of newly diagnosed patients with Type 2
diabetes have established CVD - CVD related health care costs 70 billion/year
National Diabetes Data Group. Diabetes in
America. 2nd ed. NIH1995.
18Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes
- 2-4 times more likely to die of coronary artery
disease compared with non-diabetics - 4 times as likely to develop peripheral vascular
disease - 2-4 times more likely to suffer a stroke
- Minority populations face even a greater risk of
diabetes and its complications

- National Cholesterol Education Program
20Diabetes
- In ATP III, diabetes is regarded as a CHD risk

- Use aspirin therapy ( 75-325 mg/day ) in all
adult patients with diabetes and macrovascular
disease. - Consider aspirin therapy for primary prevention
in patients over age 40 with diabetes and one or
more other CV risk factors ( including obesity ). - Also consider patients between age 30-40.

34Risk of Type 2 Diabetes in Women with History of
GDM
- Risk for Type 2 diabetes in women with history of
GDM is 14.3 per year - This varies depending on ethnic origin and
glycemic status in the postpartum period - In Latino women, 50 progress to type 2 diabetes
within 5 years - If glucose intolerance remains in the post-partum
period, the risk increases to 70-80 within 5
years - Buchanan, TA. Diabetes. 2000. 49782.
35TRIPOD Troglitazone in Prevention of Diabetes
- Single-center, randomized placebo-controlled,
double-masked study - Primary aim test the hypothesis that a reduction
in secretory demands placed on beta cells by
chronic insulin resistance can prevent type 2
diabetes in Hispanic women with recent
gestational diabetes. - Study population
- History of GDM in prior 4 years
- OGTT in the non-diabetic range but consistent
with 70 risk of diabetes within 5 years - Study intervention
- troglitazone 400 mg qd (n114) or placebo (n121)
- Median follow-up period 30 months
- TA Buchanan. 2001. JCEM. 86989. TA Buchanan et
al. 2001. Diabetes 50 (S1) A81
36TRIPOD Troglitazone in Prevention of Diabetes
- Annual incidence of Type 2 diabetes
- Troglitazone 5.4
- placebo 12.3 (p0.001)
- 56 reduction in the incidence of type 2 diabetes
- Women who did not develop diabetes are being
retested 8 mo. after discontinuing troglitazone - Baseline data predict that 10 (37) will develop
diabetes if troglitazone simply "masked" diabetes - Of 27 of 55 tested to date, 1 developed diabetes
(4, plt0.05) despite return of Si to pre-trial
levels - TA Buchanan. 2001. Diabetes Care, 50 (S2) A81.
