DM is a Huge Burden

Dm and CVD
IDF 2013
Dm is Strong risk Factor for CAD:DM=CHD
T2DM is associated with a marked
risk of CVD. Individuals with DM
have an absolute risk of major
coronary events similar to that on
nondiabetic individuals with
established coronary heart disease

Whom to Screen?
How often?
ADA Guidelines 2014
-In most adult patients with DM, measure fasting
LIPID PROFILE AT LEAST ANNUALLY. (LEVEL B)
-In adults with low risk lipid values(LDL-C <2.6mmol/L,
HDL-C>1.3mmol/L, and TG<1.7mmol/L),LIPID
ASSESSMENT MAY BE REPEATED EVERY
2 YEARS.(Level E)
Diabetes Care,volume 37,Supp 1,January 2014
What are the additional
predictors beyond LDL and
HDL To be assessed?
1-Apo lipoprotein B:
No evidence yet for regular screening.
Very strong predictor for cardiovascular disease in DM.
Has less biologic variation, reliable measures.
Non fasting sample.
High cost.
ESC/EAS 2011
What are the additional
predictors beyond LDL and
HDL to be assessed?
2-Highly sensitive CRP
-These additional inflammatory markers are helpful in
intermediate risk patients but proven to be unhelpful
for the very high risk patients.
Risk Stratification?
Is it important?
What are the risk scoring
systems?
Total cardiovascular risk
estimation
1- Framingham Risk Score.
2- Systemic Coronary Risk Estimation(SCORE).

Q1: Whom Should we
Treat?
Whom Should we Treat?
ADA Guidelines 2014
1-Diabetic patients <40years,without CVD,LDL
cholesterol>2.6mmol/L(low risk) after failure of life
style modifications, or with multiple CVD risk
factors(level C).
ADA Guidelines, January 2014
Whom Should we Treat?
ADA Guidelines 2014
2- Patients without CVD,>40years,having one or more
other CVD risk factors(family history of CVD,
hypertension,smoking,albuminuria) regardless of the
LDL(level A).
3-Diabetic patients with overt CVD, regardless of the
LDL level(High risk patients),(level A).
ADA Guidelines,January 2014
Q2:Which target is the
most important?
LDL
Othe
rs
HDL
TG
UKPDS
- LDL cholesterol was the strongest independent predictor
of CHD, followed by HDL.TG level did not predict CHD
events.
Clinical Diabetes.Vol.24,no. 1,2006
Q3: What Are the Lipid’s
Target Level?
ADA Guidelines 2014
In individuals without overt CVD, the goal is LDL-C
<2.6mmol/L.(Level B)
Individuals with overt CVD, a lower LDL-C
goal of < 1.8mmol/L with a high dose statin.
(Level B)
If maximum tolerated statin therapy, a reduction in
LDL-C of 30-40-% from baseline is an alternative
goal.(Level B)
Diabetes Care,vol.37,Supp 1,January 2014
ADA Guidelines 2014
TG <1.7mmol/L and HDL cholesterol>1.0mmo/L in
men and > 1.3mmo/L in women.
LDL-C -targeted statin therapy remains the preferred
strategy.(Level A)

“The combination of fenofibrate and simvatatin did not

NEJM, April 29,2010.vol.362no.17
ADA Guidelines 2014
Combination therapy with statin and fibrates maybe
efficacious for treatment for all three lipid fractions, but
this combination is associated with an increased risk of
abnormal transaminase levels, myositis or
rhabdomyolysis and does not provide additional CVS
benefit. Hence, combination therapy can not be
broadly recommended.(Level A)
*Gemfibrozil is not preferably combined with statins
ACC/AHA 2013 Guidelines
Niacin:
-Niacin is the most effective drug for raising HDL-C.
-Niacin Trials:
ARBITER 6-HALTSNIA-Plaque,AIM-HIGH,
-HPS2-THRIVE showed disappointing results.
Diabetes&Vascular Disease Research.10(2) 99-114.2012
Niacin:
-NO COMPLETED RCT with clinical endpoints are
available yet to guide practice on addition of niacin to
statin therapy.
-Until the results of the ongoing trials are reported,
a consensus suggested to add niacin to statin in very high
risk group.
Medescape .15.3.2011
ADA Guidelines 2014
If the HDL-C<1mmol/L and the LDL-C between
2.6mmol/L and 3.3mmol/L , a fibrate or niacin might
be used especially if a patient is intolerant to statins.
Ezetimibe
The Improved Reduction of Outcomes: Vytorin Efficacy
International Trial:
IMPROVE-IT Trial:
-The trial is investigating the effect of simvastatin 40mg/d

Case 4: ADA Guidelines 2014
Combination therapy with statin and fibrates or statin and niacin
maybe efficacious for treatment for all three lipid fractions, but this
combination is associated with an increased risk of abnormal
transaminase levels, myositis or rhabdomyolysis and does not
provide additional CVS benefit. Hence, combination therapy can
not be broadly recommended.(Level A)

Conclusion
-The prevalence of T2DM is continuing to rise.
- Diabetes increases the risk of CVD which is the major
cause of death in this population, and is treated as CVD
equivalent.
-Dyslipidemia should be the key management target.
-There is little evidence for any threshold below which the
lower LDL-C is not associated with lower risk.
Conclusion
- Life style measures are an important cornerstone in the
management.
-Glycemic Control can also beneficially modify plasma lipid
levels particularly in patients with very high TG.
-Statin therapy is highly effective at reducing the risk of
CVD in primary & secondary prevention trials.
Conclusion
-Combination therapy of statins and other lipid lowering
agents can not be broadly recommended.
-Despite statin therapy, high CVD risk persists suggesting
that further intervention in addition to intensive statin
therapy are needed in the very high-risk diabetic patients.
