Study Overview
Brief Summary
Diabetes is a risk factor for carotid atherosclerotic whose progression is associated with an increased risk of vascular events. Investigators assessed prospectively by arterial duplex ultrasonography the progression of carotid atherosclerosis in a cohort of people with diabetes to assess the importance of progression and to analyze the impact of this progression on vascular events. The main hypothesis is that people with carotid atherosclerosis progression are at higher risk of vascular events than those without any progression.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Rate of vascular events between day one and the last day of follow-up reviewed by patient examination
Time Frame: Day of the last assessment of carotid atherosclerosis by duplex ultrasonography (between 01/2014 and 09/2016)
Vascular events include ischemic myocardial events, ischemic cerebrovascular events, lower limb ischemia, arterial revascularization procedure
Secondary Outcomes
- Rate of carotid atherosclerosis progression measured by duplex ultrasonography in percentage of stenosis(Day of the last assessment of carotid atherosclerosis by duplex ultrasonography between 01/2014 and 09/2016.)
