Article Synopsis
- People with type 1 diabetes (T1D) face a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), and this study explored how following the energy-restricted Mediterranean diet (erMEDd) affects carotid atherosclerosis.
- A total of 401 T1D patients were studied, and those with carotid plaques displayed lower adherence to the erMEDd compared to those without plaques.
- The results indicate that better adherence to the Mediterranean diet is linked to less atherosclerosis, emphasizing the need for encouraging healthy eating habits in T1D patients, especially those at risk for CVD.*
Background And Aims: Recent studies have identified a relationship between innate versus. Adaptative immunity and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the general population, but information on type 1 diabetes (T1D) is lacking. We aimed to study the relationship between inflammatory biomarkers and preclinical atherosclerosis in this population.

- People with type 1 diabetes (T1D) have problems with certain types of fats in their blood, which may increase their risk of heart disease.
- A study looked at T1D patients who had no previous heart issues but were considered high-risk, finding that many had carotid plaques that could lead to heart problems.
- The study showed that certain blood fat levels, especially those related to HDL and LDL, could help identify who is at the highest risk for heart disease in T1D patients.
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality in type 1 diabetes (T1D). However, there is a need for daily practice tools for identifying those more prone to suffer from these events. We aimed to assess the relationships between nuclear magnetic resonance (H NMR)-based lipidomic analysis and several CVD risk variables (including preclinical carotid atherosclerosis) in individuals with T1D at high risk.
