Cardiovascular disease risk prediction and profiling among Asian Indians with young-onset type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

Aims: This study aims to describe the profile of Asian Indians with young-onset type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) who have 'low cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk' and 'high CVD risk' based on QRESEARCH risk estimator version 3(QRISK3) and Framingham Risk Score (FRS). It also aims to assess the predictive ability of these risk calculators to estimate CVD risk in this population.

Methods: Retrospective data of 18,837 individuals with T1D or T2D with an age of onset of between 10 to 30 years were retrieved from Diabetes Electronic Medical Records.
