Comparison of Cardiovascular Risk Stratification in Young People With Type 1 Diabetes by Coronary Calcium Score to ESC/ESA2019 Recommendations

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Type 1 Diabetes; Coronary Artery Calcification
• Interventions: Diagnostic Test: Coronary Artery Calcification Realization

• Registration Number: NCT05283538
• Lead Sponsor: Poitiers University Hospital

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to compare ESC recommendations on cardiovascular (CV) risk stratification with the achievement of a CAC (Coronary Artery Calcification).

The development of a CAC, currently not systematically offered to these patients to refine CV risk, could make it possible to offer more intensive management of CV risk facors for patients who objectively have a high CV risk as evidenced by a high coronary calcium score.

LDL target recommandations have become more aggressive with a very high level of evidence in type 2 diabetic patients but low in type 1 diabetic patients because there is no specific CV intervention study for T1D patients.

These recommendations have far-reaching consequences because they would justify introducing in young type 1 diabetic patients, considered from the outset to be at moderate cardiovascular risk (young T1DM \<35 years old) or even at high cardiovascular risk (duration of diabetes \> 10 years) or very high cardiovascular risk (duration of diabetes \> 20 years), treatment with statins or even aspirin, based only on the length of time they have had diabetes.

The realization of a CAC, currently not systematically offered to these patients to refine CV risk, could make it possible to propose a more intensive management of CV risk factors for patients with objectively high CV risk attested by a high coronary calcium score.

In this case the introduction of treatment with statins would be indicated.

Statin prescription indication based on the patient's LDL cholesterol value and the LDL cholesterol target determined according to the cardiovascular risk level calculated with the coronary calcium score	1 day	The prescription indication is LDL-cholesterol levels above the target level defined according to the level of cardiovascular risk: Moderate\< 1 g/l- High\< 0.7g/l-Very high\< 0.55 g/l; Coronary calcium score classified according to a consensus of the French Society of Cardiology and the French speaking Society of Diabetology 2020 : Moderate CAC ≤ 10- High 11 ≤ CAC ≤ 100- Very high CAC \>100
